=========================================================================

Born in Bologna (Italy) on May 5th, 1934.

Laurea *Cum Laude* in Physics at the University of Pisa on December 12,
1957.

Full professor in General Physics as of 1979. As of year 1980 part-time
resident at Fermilab to participate in the Collider Detector Experiment
at the Tevatron.

Spokesperson of the Pisa Photoproduction Group at the Frascati
Electron-Synchrotron, from 1960 to 1963.

Spokesperson of the Pisa-Stony Brook experiment at the CERN Intersecting
Storage Rings (ISR, Switzerland), from 1968 to 1974.

Chairman of the Intersecting Storage Rings Committee of CERN from 1980
to 1985.

Director of the National Laboratories of Frascati (LNF) of the *Istituto
Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare* of Italy (INFN) from 1974 to 1976.

Chairman of the INFN Program Advisory Committee for Accelerator
Experiments from 1971 to 1974 and from 1985 to 1991.

Deputy Spokesperson of the Solenoidal Detector Collaboration at the
Superconducting Super Collider (SSC, United States), from 1990 to 1992.
In 1992 the U.S. House of Representatives canceled the SSC program.

Spokesperson of the Italian groups collaborating in the Collider
Detector Experiment at Fermilab (CDF, United States) from 1980 to 2000.

Member of the Scientific Policy Committee of CERN from 1992 to 1998.

Co-spokesperson of the CDF Collaboration at Fermilab from 1995 to 1997.

International Committee for Future Accelerators, 2003

Member of the Spokesperson Reading Group of CDF as of January 2007.

RESEARCH

===========

experiments on antiproton interactions in nuclear emulsions
(1957-1959)(i);

experiments on meson photoproduction at the Frascati
Electron-Synchrotron (1960-1963)(ii);

experiments on elastic scattering, quasi-elastic scattering, total
cross-sections of proton, pions and K-mesons on protons, neutrons and
nuclei at the CERN PS (1964-1970)(iii), and polarized scattering of
hadrons on protons(iv);

experiments on total cross-section and correlations in particle
production(v), and on production of muon pairs in proton-proton
interactions at the CERN ISR (1970-1980)(vi);

design of the Magnetic Detector for ALA (MDA) to study meson
spectroscopy at the high intensity, 2 GeV electron-positron collider
Anello di Luminosità Alta (ALA) of the National Laboratories of
Frascati(vii); and

experiments on production and decay of Intermediate Vector Bosons,
beauty quark physics, jet physics, and search for top quark and new
particles in proton-antiproton interactions at the Fermilab Tevatron
Collider, as of 1980.

The two major results of his experiments have been the discovery of the
raising total proton-proton cross-section at the ISR in 1972, and the
evidence for, and the discovery of, the top quark at the Fermilab
Tevatron Collider in 1994 and 1995.
