Curriculum Vitae of Roberto Terenzi - CERN

• 1987 - 1989: OPERA experiment on the URSS spacecraft INTERBALL.
Experiment specifications and interfaces definition, experiment automatic
test system overall design definition meetings both in Rome and on the
Sovietic Science Academy in Moscow.
• 1981 - 1986: Magnetic experiment MAG on board of the ESA spacecraft
GIOTTO to the Hanley comet. Collaboration with the GSFC - NASA
and the Germany TUB to design, realize and test the experiment. Overall
design and software implementation (languages: PLM86, ASM86) of a microprocessor
based real time data simulator . Responsibility of all the environmental
test on the experiment integrated on the spacecraft, tests held
at British Aerospace (BAE), Bristol, U.K., at Ariannspace and CNRS in
Toulose, France and at Kourou, French Guyane. GIOTTO EGSE member,
design of the experiment ground support equipment and management of
the contact with the industry that built the system. Many working meetings
in ESA institutes (Norvikeraut - Holland, Paris - France, Kourou,
ESOC, Darmstadt - Germany), BAE factories, CNERS and Ariannespace
sites. Launch campaign in Kourou, real time data verification at ESOC
during GIOTTO - Hanley encounter.
• 1981 - 1982: Co - investigator on JPA (plasma) experiment of GIOTTO
spacecraft. Participation to experiment and experiment test system specifications.
• 1978 - 1981: Magnetic experiment on board of the ISPM NASA spacecraft.
Collaboration and meetings with the GSFC - NASA to design, realize
and test the experiment. Design of multiprocessor experiment ground
support equipment.
• 1976 - 1977: Multiprocessor data acquisition system for an infrared photometer.
• 1976 - 1977: Co - investigator in a proposal for an experiment to be flown
on the Spacelab for superfluid helium characteristics under gravity free
conditions.
• 1973 - 1974: Magnetic experiment S331 on the GEOS ESA spacecraft.
Design of the on board DPU, design specifications for the EGSE and a
ground magnetometer testing system.
• 1971 - 1975: Mgnetic experiment E3 on board of Helios A and Helios
B spacecraft. Collaboration with the GSFC - NASA as technical engineer
to test the DPU built by the Italian industry LABEN and to integrated it
with the sensor part of the experiment built by GSFC at GSFC, Greenbelt
Md. USA. Experiment representative at the spacecraft Helias A launch
at Cape Kennedy, Fl. USA in 1974.
• 1970 - 2004: Employee with a permanent position at CNR (Consiglio
Nazionale delle Ricerche, Italy).
• 1969 - 1970: Employee with a limited duration contract (1 year) at GIFCO
- SPAROM group of the Roma University.
