Francesca Pastore

Francesca Pastore is a Researcher at the Royal Holloway, University of London, contributing to the Centre for Particle Physics and Astronomy and Experimental Particle Physics groups. She actively collaborates with the ATLAS detector project at CERN.

• Researcher in particle physics, focusing on detector simulation and collider experiments
• Contributor to ATLAS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)
• Active in computational methods for high-energy physics

Her research spans experimental and computational aspects of particle physics, including:

• Deep generative models for photon shower simulation
• Track reconstruction software optimization in LHC Run 3
• Higgsino decay analysis for supersymmetry
• Flow decorrelations in heavy-ion collisions
• Hadronic event shapes in multijet systems

Francesca's recent publications highlight trends in machine learning for detector simulations and precision measurements in collider physics.

She is currently a Researcher on the Experimental Consolidated Grant for RHUL 2024, funded by the Science & Technology Facilities Council (STFC). The project runs from 1 October 2025 to 30 September 2029, with ongoing collaboration involving 22 X users and 181 Mendeley readers.
