Sakura Pascarelli is an Italian physicist and the scientific director at the European XFEL.[2] Her research focuses on the study on matter at extreme conditions of pressure, temperature and magnetic fields, in particular using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray Magnetic Linear and Circular Dichroism (XMCD).
Early life and education
[edit]Pascarelli was born in Japan.[3] She received a Laurea in Physics from La Sapienza (Rome, Italy) and a PhD degree in Physics at the Joseph Fourier University (Grenoble, France). She is an accomplished swimmer.[4]
Research and career
[edit]Pascarelli was the head of the Matter at Extremes Group within the Experiment Division of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility in Grenoble, France, and in charge of the X-ray absorption spectroscopy beamlines. She joined the European XFEL in Hamburg, Germany, as scientific director.[5]
Pascarelli is a member of the scientific advisory committee of SLAC's Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource.[6]
