8 Research interests Her research activity was initially developed in the field of solid state physics, with special focus on ground state electronic and magnetic properties of transition metals and alloys investigated by means of polarized neutron diffraction in single crystal samples. This is a very powerful technique enabling to obtain the spin density distribution and, in ordered magnetic systems, the atomic magnetic moments and the occupation numbers of the outer electron states. These experimental data are one of the rare benchmarks for the validity of the Density Functional approach, within local density and local spin density approximations, to the calculations of the ground state of an electron system. The results of this activity have been published in several articles and a review for a wide audience was published in Neutron News in 2000 (Ref. 71 Forty years of polarized neutron scattering in ferromagnetic 3d metals and alloys ). Aiming at the experimental measurement of quantum observables related to the dynamic many-electron interactions, a series of x-ray elastic scattering experiments was carried out on crystalline samples of alkali metals and simple metals to obtain the spin-dependent pair correlation functions of the electron system. The experimental technique, the results and the theoretical interpretation of these data, which we published in several scientific papers, are also described and reported by Winfried Schülke in his reference book Electron Dynamics by Inelastic X-Ray Scattering (Oxford University Press, USA, 2007, Cap. 2.7, p. 164). The interest in the description of the interacting electron gas was the driver behind the studies on the collective excitations in simple metals in liquid phase. Indeed, liquid alkali metals have been considered as the prototype of a simple liquid metal, that is, a system with a free electron-like band structure in the crystalline state, which can be regarded as a two-component mixture of interacting electrons and ions. The investigation of a sample like that enables one to address the fundamental field of static and dynamic screening phenomena in the interacting electron gas. In particular, the presence of propagating collective excitations, i.e., propagating ion density fluctuations, can be related to the screened (almost static) Coulomb interactions among the ions. A series of experiments based upon inelastic neutron scattering over a kinematic region paralleling the Brillouin scattering regime, was carried out in molten alkali metals and alloys and polyvalent liquid metals to understand the microscopic mechanisms responsible for the propagation of the vibrational collective excitations, which brings information on either the dielectric screening in the electron gas or the effective interatomic potential in the system. More recently, the interest in the study of vibrational dynamics of disordered systems at THz frequencies has evolved into the investigation of the excitation modes in complex and/or low-dimensional systems of potential interest in life science research, with a focus on the study of dynamic and networking properties of hydration water of proteins and water confined in living cells or inside polymeric membranes. Indeed, the peculiar properties of water interacting with macromolecules have a deep impact on the specific protein functionality and, generally speaking, on most of the biological activities in living organisms. These research activities have been carried out under international collaborations and have mostly made use of scattering techniques using both neutrons and x-rays available at the large scale facilities in Europe. A deep knowledge of the neutron scattering techniques, achieved also working at the TRIGA Reactor (ENEA-CRE Casaccia) in Rome at the beginning of her career, drove her to work on the design and development of neutron instrumentation, namely

9 spectrometer components such as monochromators, collimators and detectors, and neutron spectrometers that are now installed at the major European neutron sources neutron monochromator of The activity of instrument development has been carried out within international collaborations and has been supported by both national and European funding. In the nineties, the pioneering work on solid state detectors, based on Silicon diodes and microstrips coupled to a neutron converter to achieve high speed and high resolution performances, was carried out under one of the first European programmes to finance networks of excellence. The searching for novel neutron detector concepts has continued along the years and it is nowadays an important issue considering the recent 3 He, the typical filling gas of a neutron detector, shortage at global level. The results of her research have been presented in about 150 publications in international journals with peer review, several institutional reports and invited communications to international conferences. Acknowledgement of the scientific results achieved in the field is also witnessed by the invited contributions to the Scientific Highlights of the ILL-facility. Academic activities Since 1991, as a staff member of the University of Perugia and the Politecnico di Milano, she has been regularly teaching courses of Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Electromagnetism to student classes of Engineering, Biotechnology and Earth Sciences, and courses of Spectroscopy, Solid State Physics and Many-body Physics to student classes of Physics. Her typical Professoral duty consisted in giving two courses per academic year, over the two semesters. She also has given lectures and advanced courses to PhD students and to students of specialized Schools, mostly on the use of neutron techniques. She has been the supervisor of many student theses, both graduate and PhD. She has been a member of the PhD School of Physics of both Perugia University and Politecnico di Milano. Most of the students who graduated or got a PhD under her supervision are now employed in European research institutions and Universities.
