Davide Manzini

Davide Manzini is a researcher in plasma physics who recently completed his PhD. He defended his doctoral thesis titled "Turbulence and Heating in Collisionless Astrophysical Plasmas" on September 27, 2024, at École Polytechnique.1 Currently, Manzini is working as a PostDoc Researcher in Plasma Physics at Queen Mary University of London.2 His academic background includes studies at Sorbonne Université and the University of Pisa.2

Manzini's research focuses on plasma physics, particularly in areas such as turbulence and heating in collisionless plasmas. He has presented his work at various academic events, including a heliophysics seminar where he discussed insights from the Earth's magnetosheath.3 His research contributions include work on electrostatic plasma models and subion-scale turbulence driven by magnetic reconnection.56

During his PhD studies from 2021 to 2024, Manzini was co-supervised by F. Galifano.4 His academic pursuits demonstrate a strong commitment to excellence in the field of plasma physics and astrophysical plasmas.
