Fabrizio Marchese is an experimental physicist. His research focuses on the development of particle detectors for High Energy Physics experiments and related Control Systems. He has been member of the ATLAS Collaboration at CERN working in the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Research Activity

Fabrizio Marchese is an experimental physicist. His research activity deals with the development of particle detectors, mainly gaseous ionization detectors, for HEP experiments. In particular his research concerns the development of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) for large-area detectors. FM worked both for the National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) and the University of Rome “Tor Vergata” in the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. He worked primarily on the trigger detectors of the ATLAS muon spectrometer studying the behavior of about 4000 RPCs (7000 m² of total detection surface) and developing the RPC Detector Control System (DCS), that is part of the ATLAS DCS, acquiring knowledge and experience in SCADA software as well as in large Distributed Control Systems.
