My Background
2007: Bachelor degree in telecommunication engineering from Catania University with thesis at INFN-LNS (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare – Laboratori Nazionali del Sud) on ECR (Electron Cyclotron Resonance) Plasma Ion Source.
2010:Master degree in telecommunication engineering from Pisa University with thesis in collaboration with NURC (NATO Undersea Research Centre) on HF Radar and their use as a surveillance radar.
From 2010 to November 2011: Stage at INFN-LNS on plasma heating, Bernstein’s wave propagation in a plasma source, dissociation of toxic molecular by use of a plasma chamber.
From 2011 until now: Marie Currie fellow @ CERN in BE - OP (Beams Department - Operation) for the HIE – ISOLDE Project.

Mid Term Review Meeting, 26 September 2012 D. Lanaia5
Activity @ CERN
Objectives
The ESR training will be focused on the development of
machine tune-up procedures that will later be
implemented in the control software for the linac
operation and active participation in the startup of the
machine.
Description of
work
1. Draft the specification of the controls and of the beam
monitoring tools specific to the HIE-REX Linac
2. Definition of tuning procedures and management of
machine protection and alarm system
3. Draft console applications to be used by the operators
for the Linac tuning and monitoring
4. Follow progress of the different aspects of the Linac
design, construction and installation
5. Assist in the commissioning of the new machine
Deliverables
D19. Report on commissioning schedule, general tuning
procedure, specifications for controls and beam
diagnostics
D20. Commissioning report. Final conference report
and/or journal publication

Mid Term Review Meeting, 26 September 2012 D. Lanaia12
Experience in the project
REX – LINAC Operation Trained by my supervisor & the other operators Help colleagues to performs measurement (i.e.
Faraday cup test, Silicon Detector study and TOF System)
Have contacts with ISOLDE users Use and understanding of the existing operational
tool (Farday cups, Eq array, Mass Scan, etc etc)
