Angioletta.Coradini

Position

Director of the Istituto di Fisica dello spazio Interplanetario del Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche in Roma, Italy.

Thèmes de recherche

Her theoretical and observational work is in areas such as: analysis of lunar samples, surfaces of inner planets, thermal evolution of various solar system bodies, and planet formation.

Angioletta Coradini performed outstanding works in many fields of planetary sciences using both observational and theoretical approaches: analysis of lunar samples, study of the geology of the surfaces of the inner planets, remote sensing studies of terrestrial volcanic areas in the infrared, investigation of the thermal evolution of planets and satellites, study of the thermal differentiation of comet nuclei, Centaurs and Kuiper Belt objects, models of the primitive solar nebula and planetary subnubulae for study of planet formation.

Prix et récompenses

2007 David Bates Medal (European Geosciences Union) “in recognition of her important and wide ranging work in planetary sciences and Solar System formation, and her leading role in the development of space infrared instrumentation for planetary exploration”.

Publications

Her wide-ranging publications include some 200 scientific articles and three books.
