Maurizio Giannotti

Maurizio Giannotti is Beatriz Galindo professor of physics at the Universidad de Zaragoza, Spain. His interests are in the astrophysics of feebly interacting particles, such as axions, dark photons, etc. He is a core member of the Feebly Interacting Particle Physics Center (CERN). Together with Axel Lindner, he is the Physics coordinator for the International Axion Observatory (IAXO). He is the current coordinator (with Oscar Straniero) of the Working Group 3 for the COST Action CA21106 - COSMIC WISPers in the Dark Universe: Theory, astrophysics and experiments.
