Bernardo Barbiellini

Bernardo Barbiellini is a tenured Professor of Computational Materials Science at the LUT School of Engineering Sciences in Lappeenranta, Finland. He holds a PhD in Physics from the University of Geneva (1991).

• Research Focus: Computational modeling of quantum mechanical properties in materials, including high-temperature superconductors, battery materials, and nanostructures
• Key Techniques: Compton scattering, positron annihilation spectroscopy, Stochastic Gradient Approximation (SGA) for Quantum Monte Carlo simulations

Recent Work Trends span excited-state physics in complex materials using synchrotron radiation, with emphasis on battery cathodes and transition metal oxides. His collaborative Network includes Arun Bansil (Northeastern University), Dirk Lamoen (University of Antwerp), and experimentalists like Rafael Ferragut (Politecnico di Milano).
