He has published over seventy peer-reviewed research papers involving many collaborators both in Italy and abroad, as well as invited papers and lecture notes. Velli was chair and main scientific editor for the international conference Solar Wind 10, Pisa, June, 2002. He has been member of peer review committees for NASA research and payload proposals as well as for ESA, member of the science definition team for Solar Orbiter (2003), and is presently a member of Solar Probe science and technology definition team, responsible for drafting the Scientific Objectives and requirements. Velli has taught mechanics, electromagnetism, astrophysics, and plasma physics courses at the University of Florence, and mentored 7 students for their Laurea Thesis in Florence, directed 5 PhD theses at the University of Florence and 2 at the University of Paris XI Orsay. As the mission's observatory scientist he will provide an independent assessment of scientific performance and act as a community advocate for the mission. SPP is part of NASA's Living with a Star Program, designed to understand aspects of the sun and Earth's space environment that affect life and society. He is principal investigator of Heliospheric Origins on the Solar Probe Plus mission, the first spacecraft to fly within 9 solar radii of the Sun's surface, directly studying the outer solar corona and acceleration region of the solar wind. wave particle interactions in the solar corona and heliosphere.the properties of turbulence in dynamically forced, open systems.nonlinear evolution of current sheets and magnetic reconnection.Wave propagation and shock formation in inhomogeneous and stratified plasmas the stability of magnetic structures anchored in the photosphere such as coronal loops.Professor Velli's research has focused on space plasma physics and solar magnetic activity with particular emphasis on:
