Main Research Fields
My main research interest is on deep cosmological surveys to address the following astrophysical issues:
- Properties of the most distant galaxy clusters and proto-clusters
- What is the evolutionary sequence which lead star formation to migrate from high-z overdensities to low density regions in the local universe ?
- Resolve the Cosmic Infrared Background and determine the nature of its constituents.
- Determine the cosmic evolution of dusty star formation and of the infrared luminosity function.
- Elucidate the relation of far-infrared emission and environment, and determine clustering properties.
- Determine the contribution of AGN. Determine the infrared emission and energetics of known galaxy populations
- The search of Solar System Objects in deep optical surveys
