1 LUISA CHIESA Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering Tufts University, Medford, MA 02155 +1-617-627-4575 EDUCATION 2006-2009 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA in Nuclear Science and Engineering Thesis: Mechanical and Electromagnetic Transverse Load Effects on Superconducting Niobium-Tin Performance 2003-2006 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA in Nuclear Science and Engineering Thesis: Development of an Experiment to Study the Effect of Transverse Stress on the Critical Current of a Niobium-Tin Superconducting Cable 1995-2001 Universita Statale degli Studi di Milano, Italy in Physics Thesis: Quench Protection Analysis for the Superconducting Quadrupoles Q2a/Q2b for the Inner Triplet of the LHC RESEARCH AND PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE 2009-current: Tufts University, Medford, MA Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering Electromechanical characterization of Low Temperature Superconductors (LTS) and High Temperature Superconductors (HTS) to enhance the performance of powerful magnets used in energy systems and fundamental research on the origin of matter (high-energy physics).

2 2014: CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research, Switzerland Visiting Scientist Experimental studies to characterize the performance of a single superconducting strand and correlate the behavior to a system composed of several strands (cable). Ultimately the goal of the project is being able to predict the behavior of a complex system knowing the behavior of the smallest components of that system. 2009: Tufts University, Medford, MA Visiting Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering Electromechanical characterization of Low Temperature Superconductors (LTS) and High Temperature Superconductors (HTS). 2003-2008: Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA Research Assistant, Plasma Science and Fusion Center Experimental, analytical and numerical analysis of the behavior of Cable in Conduit Conductors (CICC, used in magnets for fusion energy machines) when subjected to a transverse load.

3 1 2008: Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA Teaching Assistant Sustainable Energy (cross listed in several departments) 2001-2003: Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, CA Scientific Engineer Associate Performed tests on magnets and analyzed the results obtained. Analysis involved electrical, mechanical, field quality, quench protection behaviors. Magnets tested were tested in high-current and cryogenic environment ( K, K). 1999-2000: Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory, Batavia, IL Guest scientist Assisted in performing tests at K on model quadrupole magnets to be qualified for LHC machine. Quench protection studies were performed to evaluate the response of the passive system used to protect the magnets in case of a sudden transition from superconducting to resistive state (quench).

4 AREAS OF EXPERTISE AND RESEARCH INTEREST I have expertise in superconducting magnets and materials with a particular focus on applications in fusion energy and high-energy physics machines. While the core focus within my research group has been on the electromechanical properties of superconductors (LTS and HTS, single strand/tape and cables), we are broadening our expertise to areas of power storage and delivery for which superconductors could play a significant role (Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES), Superconducting Transmission Lines). My laboratory facility is unique to Tufts, allowing this type of research on cryogenics and superconductivity to be carried out at the University for the first time. My new graduate-level class in cryogenics and superconductivity, offered for the first time at Tufts, provides exposure to the subject for graduate students in Mechanical Engineering and Physics.

5 The students I train through the course and research activities in my lab are an essential component for the successful continuation and future progress of the fields of cryogenics and superconductivity. Active collaborations with national laboratories, in particular CERN in Switzerland, are currently established. Those collaborations allows for steady progress in our research and also expose graduate students to the collaborative and international nature of the fields of cryogenic and superconductivity. TEACHING EXPERIENCE 2009-current: Tufts University, Medford, MA Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering ES-7: Thermodynamics, sophomore level class covering basics of fluids properties and thermodynamics cycles of engines and power plants.
