Über Autor(innen)

Maurizio Di Paolo Emilio is a Ph.D. in Physics and a Telecommunication Engineer. He has worked on various international projects in the field of gravitational wave research. Working as a software/hardware developer in the data acquisition system, he participated as the designer of the thermal compensation system (TCS) for the optical system used in the Virgo Experiment (an experiment for detection of the gravitational wave). Actually, He works as Technical writer and electronic designer in the X-ray field to design new devices about High Voltage systems and Microbeam for radiobiological and microscopy applications. Di Paolo Emilio is also the author of numerous publications on electronics design, data acquisition system, PCB, IT and embedded system.
