Rate My Professor Marina Petri

Petri serves as Principal Investigator on the STFC-funded gRIBF-UK project to develop a scintillator-based high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometer at RIBF, and as Co-Investigator on the Nuclear Physics Consolidated Grant 2024-2027. In December 2025, she was elected spokesperson for the R3B collaboration at FAIR. She guest-edited the 2024 theme issue of Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A titled 'The liminal position of Nuclear Physics: from hadrons to neutron stars,' contributing the lead article. With 110 research outputs, her contributions cover topics such as quasi-free scattering, fusion reactions, high-precision mass measurements of proton-rich isotopes, and fission yields. Key publications include 'Fusion of 12C+28Si at deep sub-barrier energies' (Physics Letters B, 2026), 'High-Precision Mass Measurements of Proton-Rich Rh, Pd, Cd isotopes in the vicinity of 100Sn and Impact on X-Ray Burst and Supernova Nucleosynthesis' (2026), and 'Establishing the 40Ca(p,pα) reaction at 392 MeV under quasi-free scattering conditions' (2026). An invited speaker at events like the Nuclear Physics Forum, Euroschool on Exotic Beams, and Nuclear Physics for the Next Generation, she maintains collaborations across America, Europe, Asia, and Africa, and accepts PhD students.
