Education
Baldo-Ceolin graduated from the University of Padua in 1952 and six years later (1958) became a Professor in Physics in the same University.
Baldo-Ceolin graduated from the University of Padua in 1952 and six years later (1958) became a Professor in Physics in the same University.
She died on 25 November 2011. In 1963, she was the first female to have a professorship (Chair of Physics Department) in the University. In the 1970s she was attracted by neutrino physics.
She entered the NUE experiment at European Organization of Nuclear Research, where she worked within Helmut Fraisser"s team to determine a value for the Weinberg angle.
Baldo-Ceolin was also part of the Italian-French-Dutch-Norwegian collaboration regarding the Super Proton Synchrotron at European Organization of Nuclear Research. In 1976 she started an experiment for the observation of electron-muon-neutrino oscillations, which later continued running with NOMAD"s collaboration contribution (Neutrino Oscillation MAgnetic Detector). Baldo-Ceolin was given the opportunity to unfold her leading abilities during that collaborative project
She also supported the development of the ICARUS experiment and its installation in the Gran Sasso laboratory. In Padua, from 1965-1968 she was Head of the local section of the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (Italy's National Institute of Nuclear Physics) and 1973-1978 Head of the Physics Department.
In 1998, she initiated the series of international workshops on neutrino telescopes at the Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti.
Amongst others, she had been coordinator of the European Networks of neutrino oscillators. When Baldo-Ceolin died she was still a Professor Emeritus in the University of Padua, a role attributed to her in 1998.
