Giovanni Padovano is an experimental particle physicist working in the ATLAS Collaboration at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. His research focuses on physics analyses with tau lepton final states. He received his Ph. D. in Particle Physics from Sapienza University of Rome, where he also obtained his M. Sc. and B. Sc. in Physics. During his Ph. D. , he studied the production of tau lepton pairs in proton-proton collisions (pp ), performing a cross-section measurement of this process with several implications on new physics constraints. He subsequently searched for the production of Higgs boson pairs, in the final state involving two bottom quarks and two tau leptons (HH bb). He spent several periods of research at CERN and moved to the CNRS Laboratoire d'Annecy de Physique des Particules to continue his research within ATLAS.
