Anna Tenerani is an Italian astrophysicist studying plasma physics and space plasmas, specifically the waves and particles continuously emitted by the sun, their mutual interactions, and how they evolve into space.[1] She is currently an assistant professor of physics at The University of Texas at Austin.

Education and Career edit

Tenerani attended the University of Pisa, Italy, where she received her Bachelors in Physics in 2006 and a Master in Physical Sciences in 2009.[1] Tenerani received a Master in Classical Piano from the "G. Puccini" Conservatory in 2009. in She later attended the University of Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris - University of Pisa, Italy, where she recieved a joint Ph.D. in Astronomy & Astrophysics and Applied Physics in 2012. She was a postdoctoral scholar at Caltech/Jet Propulsion Laboratory from 2012 to 2014. She was then an assistant researcher at the University of California, Los Angeles.[1] She currently works in the Institute for Fusion Studies within the Department of Physics at the University of Texas at Austin[2].

Collaborations edit

She is currently a member of the Parker Solar Probe and The HEliospheRic Magnetic Energy Storage and conversion Science Center (HERMES) collaborations.
