Additional information Nuclear, antimatter and dark matter component in cosmic rays

The scientific activity of Prof. Roberta Sparvoli has been mainly dedicated to
the field of Astroparticle Physics, in particular with regard to the study
of nuclear and isotopic component of cosmic rays and the antimatter
component (positrons and antiprotons, detection of any antinuclei), and search
for possible indirect evidence of dark matter. These studies were carried out in
space, by stratospheric balloons and on satellites, as part of the experimental
program of the WIZARD collaboration. Among the most important missions
on balloon of this collaboration we can remember MASS89, MASS91, TS93,
CAPRICE94 and CAPRICE98. As for space missions, the WIZARD
collaboration sent into space the telescopes NINA, NINA2 and PAMELA.
The space mission PAMELA represents a state-of-the-art of the investigation of the
cosmic radiation, addressing the most compelling issues facing astrophysics and
cosmology: the nature of the dark matter that pervades the universe, the apparent
absence of cosmological antimatter, the origin and evolution of matter in the galaxy.
PAMELA, a particle identifier using a permanent magnet spectrometer with a
variety of specialized detectors, is an instrument of extraordinary scientific
potential that is measuring with unprecedented precision and sensitivity the
abundance and energy spectra of cosmic rays electrons, positrons, antiprotons and
light nuclei over a very large range of energy from 50 MeV to hundreds GeV,
depending on the species. One of the main scientific objectives of PAMELA is also
the detection of SEP events and solar phenomena, in view of the Space Weather.
PAMELA has been put in orbit, on board of the Resurs-DK1 Russian satellite
by a rocket Soyuz, on the 15th of June 2006. More than 70 outstanding publications have been
have been already produced by PAMELA.
Roberta Sparvoli is member of the CALET collaboration too, who has sent in
orbit on board the ISS a sophisticated calorimeter in August 2015. Aim of the
CALET experiment is to measure electrons and nuclei in cosmic rays up to the
hundreds of TeV energies.
Currently Roberta Sparvoli participates to the experiment GAPS, that is a
ballon-borne experiment located in the USA, aimed at searching for anti-
deuteron in cosmic rays as signature of dark matter annihilation.

Life science in space

A parallel scientific interest of Roberta Sparvoli is in the field of life science in

space, with the missions Si-Eye1 ans Sil-Eye2 on the Russian MIR space
station, respectively, in the periods 1995-1998 and 1998-2000, and the
missions
Si-Eye3 (in 2002) and ALTEA (in 2006), on the ISS, the latter still in progress.
These experiments performed a continuous monitoring of radiation within the
Space Stations and allowed a detailed study of the risks to the astronauts due to
ionizing particles.

Monitoring of the seismic activity from space

In the last years, Roberta Sparvoli became part of the collaboration

CSES/Limadou. The main scientific objective of the mission CSES (China
Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite) is studying electromagnetic phenomena and
their correlation with the geophysics activity, contributing to the monitoring of
earthquakes from space.
The satellite CSES was put in space in February 2018. It hosts an Italian
payload. The Italian contribution to the mission CSES, in fact, consists of an

 innovative instrument to measure energetic particles that precipitate from the
Van Allen belts as a result of electromagnetic interference.
The satellite has aboard a wide range of instruments (magnetometers
fluxgate and search-coil, high energy particle detectors, LP-RPA and ion drift
meter) designed to jointly detect perturbations of different parameters and
physical variables. Roberta Sparvoli is coordinating the data analysis of this
first mission.
A second version of the CSES satellite will be put in orbit in 2022. The Italian
participation to the Chinese mission will imply the construction and test of a
particle instrument and a detector for the measurement of the ionospheric
electric field.

The scientific activity of Roberta Sparvoli is testified by 300 records as

refereed articles in the SCOPUS database and by the numerous congress and
meeting participations as invited speaker.
