About the school
The XXIII Giambiagi School focuses on neutrino physics and the opportunity they provide to explore what may lay beyond the standard model of particle physics.
The one-week school will consist of courses and lectures that will go from neutrino theory to current and future experiments.
In this path, the students will learn about neutrino interactions, detection techniques, and results from the experiments leading the field.
More about the school
The Giambiagi Winter School is organized by the Physics Department, Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Each year the School is devoted to a different topic. Its main purpose is to offer graduate students and young researchers an up-to-date perspective given by world-recognized experts, in a relaxed working atmosphere promoting interaction and potential future collaborations.
The School consists of a series of lectures on recent results, with posters and discussion sessions.
As an exception due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the XXIII edition will be held online

Short courses
The School will have four courses of approximately 4.5 hours each, covering topics related to neutrino physics from an Introduction to particle physics, how to go from theory to measurements, Neutrino detection at nuclear reactors and new technologies for particle detection.
“Introduction to particle physics and neutrinos”
Roni is a theoretical high energy physicist at Fermilab working on fundamental questions: what does the Universe contain and what are the rules its building blocks obey? Roni studies theories for physics beyond the standard model and ways to explore them.
Topics he works on include dark matter, neutrino physics, and the origin of the weak scale. Roni received a PhD in physics at Berkeley in 2005. He was a postdoctoral fellow at SLAC and Stanford before joining Fermilab in 2010.

Bio-sketch: Dr. Machado is an associate scientist at Fermilab. He was born and raised in Brazil. He did his undergraduate work at Universidade Federal do Ceará (2007). He received his Ph.D. from University of São Paulo.
Machado is a theoretical physicist working primarily in neutrino physics, and also in Higgs and dark matter physics. Before joining Fermilab, Dr. Machado spent a few years in Madrid as a post-doctoral fellow, and as a Ph.D. student he visited Paris for a couple of years and Fermilab for six months. His work is focused on phenomenology: the interface between theory and experiment.[/dica_divi_carouselitem][/dica_divi_carousel]
Short talks
The School will have short presentations given by invited national and international guest speakers.
“Everything you always wanted to know about the LArTPC technology” “The FNAL LArTPC program”
Elena Gramellini is a Lederman Fellow at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. She is an experimentalist working in the field of neutrino physics. In particular, she is an expert of the LArTPC detector technology, which is the technology of choice for the next generation of accelerator neutrino experiments.
In general, she’s interested in Physics Beyond the Standard Model such as Sterile Neutrinos Searches, Nucleon Decay and Dark Matter in neutrino detectors. She is Italian, her college Alma Mater is the University of Bologna, and she completed her doctoral studies at Yale University in 2018.

I studied physics in the University of Buenos Aires, and did my PhD in Trieste, at SISSA. After postdocs at Fermilab, CERN and SISSA, I was invited professor at Valencia, Spain, and returned to Argentina in 1998. I am now CONICET researcher at the Centro Atomico Bariloche. My field of research is particle physics and astroparticle physics.
I have worked in particular on beyond the Standard Model physics, supersymmetric dark matter, microlensing, neutrino physics and cosmic rays. I am also deeply involved in the analysis and interpretation of data from the Pierre Auger Observatory.
