Paolo Coppi

Paolo Coppi is a Professor of Astronomy at Yale University's Department of Physics. His research focuses on astrophysics and cosmology, with specific interests in high-energy plasma and radiation processes, cosmological very high-energy (VHE) particle propagation, blazars and VHE astronomy, black hole and neutron star binaries, early star and structure formation, gas-mediated black hole mergers, and several observational surveys including the QUEST Large Area Driftscan Survey and the Yale=Catan Deep X-Ray/Optical/NIR Survey. His work is supported by his affiliation with Yale University and his role as a professor in the Department of Physics.

Paolo Coppi is a Professor of Astronomy and Physics at Yale University, specializing in high-energy astrophysics, star formation, compact objects, gamma-ray astronomy, and particle astrophysics. His research explores the formation of the first stars, the fragmentation of primordial gas, and the role of gas in merging massive black holes. He also investigates high-energy processes in accreting black holes and the intergalactic magnetic field through observations of TeV blazars. Coppi's work includes the development of photometric redshift codes and multiwavelength surveys, contributing to our understanding of cosmic structures and extreme astrophysical phenomena.
