Andrea Papini

I recently obtained my PhD at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, under the supervision of Franco Flandoli, and will join the group of Annika Lang as a postdoc.
My main research interest lies in the study of the effect of turbulence in coagulation processes such as rain and planetoid formation, with a focus on point vortex dynamics and its simulation. Investigating the role of eddy diffusion in turbulent velocity field and a link to coagulation enhancement and the formation of new structure in the fluid. For such research I employ techniques from PDE/SPDE theory and model arising from scaling limit of interacting particle systems under the action of a transport type random vector field.
