Anna Sinopoulou

Ms. Anna Sinopoulou is a PhD candidate of the National Technical University of Athens (N.T.U.A) and works in the Astroparticle Physics group of the Institute of Nuclear & Particle Physics, N.C.S.R. “Demokritos”. Anna holds an integrated Master of Engineering (MEng) degree in Applied Mathematical and Physical Sciences from the National Technical University of Athens (2011-2016) and a Master of Science (MSc) degree in Physics and Applications from the National Technical University of Athens (2016-2018). During her MSc studies, she has also worked as an intern in the Erlangen’s Center for Astroparticle Physics (E.C.A.P) of the University of Erlangen-Nurnberg in Germany. Anna has a teaching experience as a laboratory assistant of the Nuclear and Particle Physics laboratory of N.T.U.A where she teaches “The Monte Carlo method” and “General Physics”.

Her major research interests are in the field of Particle and Astroparticle Physics. Anna during her first-degree thesis, has completed a study on “the possibility of detecting very high-energy neutrinos with the original GRBNeT self-test array”. During her MSc, she became a full member of the KM3NeT collaboration and has completed an “optimization study of the KM3NeT detector for detecting high-activity neutrinos”. During her internship at E.C.A.P. she has studied the photomultiplier response of detector KM3NeT-ORCA detector from the data taken from its first deployed detection unit. Anna is currently working on the data from the first deployed detection units of the KM3NeT-ARCA detector, in order to find and optimize requirements for selecting well reconstructed events and to find selection criteria to identify neutrino event candidates.
