Giovanni Consolati graduated with honours in Nuclear Engineering (Politecnico di Milano), in Physics (Università Statale di Milano), and in Agriculture-Science of crop production and protection (Università Statale di Milano). Assistant Professor from 1983 to 1999, Associate Professor from 1999. Scientific investigations concern: antimatter physics. Main research: (1) positronium (Ps) features in the ground and excited states; (2) spin relaxation processes of positrons injected in condensed matter. (3) Production of cold antihydrogen at CERN (AEGIS experiment) to perform gravitational experiments on antimatter; materials science. Experimental determination of the free volume in polymers and the distribution function of nanometric cavities in porous materials; Cosmic rays. Detection of extragalactic cosmic rays with energies higher than 10 17 eV (Auger experiment); Detection of gamma rays with energies in the range 100 GeV – 10 PeV (SWGO experiment). Giovanni Consolati is the author or co-author of more than 190 articles published in international journals.
