Dr. Ugo Jacovella

Principal investigator

Short CV

My research interests lie in the spectroscopy and chemistry of molecular ions with multiple isomeric forms, relevant to astrochemistry and complex chemical environments. I specialize in laser spectroscopy, ion manipulation, and mass spectrometry to investigate reactive ions and identify spectral fingerprints of novel interstellar molecules.
