Laetitia Canete is a french physicist and interdisciplinary artist based in London. She works as a lecturer at Northeastern University London, teaching physics to undergraduate mobility students.
Her research interest focused on experimental nuclear physics for nuclear structure studies and nuclear astrophysics. She has been previously working for her MSc on the calibration of the gravitational wave detector LIGO in USA. During her PhD, she performed mass measurements of exotic nuclei using the double Penning trap JYFLTRAP. In the IGISOL group, she participated to the implementation of the Phase Imaging Ion-Cyclotron-Resonance (PI-ICR) technique and used this novel technique for the first time to measure masses around the N=40 subshell gap. At the University of Surrey, she worked on Gamma-ray spectroscopy in collaboration with international nuclear laboratory facilities such Argonne National Laboratory in USA and CERN in Switzerland.
She started a MA in Art and Science at Central Saint Martins (University of the Arts London) in September 2023. Her artistic practice explore
