My name is Emanuele Ripamonti, and I was born on July 4th, 1970 in Vimercate, Italy. I am italian and my mother tongue language is italian (so, sorry for any mistake..)
I am an astronomer:
- in 1998 I received a Laurea degree (roughly comparable to a Master) in
Physics from the Universita' degli Studi di Milano, with a thesis about "Chemical abundances in extragalactic HII regions")
- in 2002 I received a Ph.D. in Astronomy, again from the Universita'
degli Studi di Milano, with a thesis about "Protostellar collapse in Population III objects" (see http://www.astro.rug.nl/~ripa/files/phd_th_ripa.pdf )
- from 2002 to 2004 I was an astronomy postdoc at the Pennsylvania State
University, and I lived in State College, Pennsylvania.
- since 2004 I am an astronomy postdoc at the Kapteyn Astronomical
Institute of the University of Groningen, in the Netherlands
My professional interests are about theoretical cosmology and in particular the so-called "dark ages". Most of my work is about numerical simulations of the formation of the first luminous objects in the universe, although I am also interested in slightly different subjects such as the formation of dwarf galaxies. A publication list of mine can be accessed through http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Ripamonti_E/0/1/0/all/0/1 or http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-abs_connect?sim_query=YES&aut_xct=NO&aut_logic=OR&obj_logic=OR&author=Ripamonti%2C+E.&object=&start_mon=&start_year=&end_mon=&end_year=
