Who is Roberto Battiston

Roberto Battiston was born in Trento in 1956. He is married and the father of four children.

Graduated in Physics at the Scuola Normale of Pisa. Doctorate at the University of Paris IX, Orsay. Since 1992 Full Professor of Experimental Physics currently at the Department of Physics, University of Trento.

For over 35 years he has been involved in research projects of international standing in the field of experimental physics of fundamental interactions: strong interactions, electroweak interactions, search for antimatter and dark matter in cosmic rays. He has coordinated scientific projects of great size and complexity in the field of accelerator physics at CERN, Stanford and in space. In particular, together with Nobel laureate Samuel C.C. Ting, he coordinated the realization of the experiment for the search of antimatter, installed on the International Space Station (AMS).

He chaired the Italian Space Agency (ASI) for a four-year period (2014-18), representing Italy in the Italian, European and international space contexts. He has been committed to the dissemination and use of scientific space data as a fundamental element for the development of the economic society and, in particular, of space economy issues, contributing to the approval of the national “Space Economy” plan based on public-private partnerships. He proposed and supported the development of the first Italian public-private investment fund for space.

Author of more than 460 articles published in international journals. He has given invited talks at hundreds of national and international conferences. He has long held a monthly page in Le Scienze, and is currently a columnist for La Stampa and l’Adige. He writes regularly in Repubblica, Corriere della Sera, Domani and other national newspapers.

Organiser of several International Conferences dedicated to space science and advanced technologies (Trento 1999, Elba 2002, Washington 2003, Beijing 2006, CERN 2012, Rome 2019, 2020).
