Years have passed since when the grey Jedi Caterina Tiburzi left the Cagliaribah planet where she trained with Master Obi-Andr KePossent. The adventures to find her identity brought the restless Jedi to the outer rims of the Galaxy, to the remote planet New-Zelandooine, the brutalist Bielefeldis IV, and the water asteroid Netherlandooth. There, Caterina sort of learnt the mysteries of pulsar polarization through high-order statistics, the wonders of low-frequency astronomy, the painful incomprehensibility of Pulsar Timing Arrays and the breathtaking beauty of probing the heliosphere using pulsars.

A couple of months ago, the Millennium Fal_KLM_on of Caterina landed back in Cagliaribah. And today we'll hear how the story went, and how (maybe) she will move forward from here.

Brief CV of Dr. Caterina Tiburzi:

She got two Bachelor Degrees, in Biological Sciences and Astronomy, and a Master Degree in Astrophysics and Cosmology at the University of Bologna (IT). She then did her PhD in Physics at the University of Cagliari (IT), working at the Astronomical Observatory of Cagliari and the ATNF institute in Marsfield (NSW-AUS). She then moved to the University of Bielefeld and the MPIfR (DE) for her first postdoc, and to Astron (NL) as a Veni fellow. She is specialized in radio-pulsar studies, in particular conducted at low frequencies, applied to the analysis of magnetoionic plasma and the search of low-frequency gravitational waves, and in the study of pulsar polarization.
