The purpose of the Young Investigator Grant (JP) is to support a scientifically sound and high-quality research project. It also aims to encourage the attraction, under internationally competitive conditions, of young researchers with demonstrated international postdoctoral research experience who are still in the process of establishing their professional careers, to research institutions in the State of São Paulo.
The purpose of the Young Investigator Grant Phase 2 (JP-2) is to enable the consolidation of research lines initiated by applicants who have previously received a highly successful Young Investigator Grant (JP) from FAPESP.

Astroparticle physics has significantly contributed to expanding our knowledge of the extremes of the Universe. Still, intriguing questions remain open, such as the origin of cosmic rays, the most energetic known particles in the Universe, and the possibility of exploring the limits of fundamental physics with astrophysical data. The study of cosmic particles with energies between GeV and…
Galactic Archaeology is the field of research that aims to understand the origin and evolution of galaxies (and in particular, the Milky Way) through the chrono-chemo-dynamical properties observed in the present-day stars. In this project we take advantage of the new generation of multicolor surveys, like S-PLUS, which employ narrow-band photometry sensitive to stellar parameters like met…
Astrophysical jets are a ubiquitous and powerful phenomenon in astronomy. Their emission ranges over a wide scale, from young stellar objects (YSO) to super-massive black holes (SMBH) and Active Galactic Nucleii (AGN). Jets are believed to play a central role in regulating protostellar and black hole mass-accretion as well galaxy growth via AGN feedback; despite their importance, their dr…

The main objective of this project is to investigate the formation and evolution of accreting white dwarfs using numerical simulations. The study of accreting white dwarfs bears relevance for several fields of research due to their wide variety of phenomena, over virtually all wavelengths and on a broad range of timescales, which makes them natural laboratories to investigate, for instanc…
In the last decades an era of large collaborations have begun with the aim of solving great questions in science related to cosmic-ray origins, neutrino physics, gravitational wave sources, dark matter nature, etc. In all these a fore mentioned fields gamma-ray astronomy plays a central role. A deep understanding and detailed modeling of the non thermal phenomenal a taking place in the so…
Black Holes (BH) are key actors in astronomy. They behave as engines that convert the gravitational energy of infalling gas into intense, high-energy radiation, thus powering the most luminous objects in the universe: Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and gamma-ray bursts. Furthermore, BHs operate as extreme particle accelerators through ill-understood processes and produce outflows of particl…

O principal objetivo deste projeto é investigar a formação e evolução de anãs brancas acretantes com simulações numéricas. O estudo das anãs brancas acretantes é relevante para diversos campos de pesquisa devido à sua grande variedade de fenômenos, em praticamente todos os comprimentos de onda e em uma ampla gama de tempos de escala, o que as torna laboratórios naturais para investigar, p…
A Arqueologia Galáctica é o campo de pesquisa que visa compreender a origem e evolução de galáxias (e, em particular, da Via Láctea) por meio das propriedades crono-quimio-dinâmicas observadas nas estrelas atuais. Neste projeto, utilizamos a nova geração de levantamentos multi-filtros, como o S-PLUS, que empregam fotometria de banda estreita sensível a parâmetros estelares como metalicida…
Jatos astrofísicos são fenômenos energéticos bastante presentes na astronomia. Sua emissão abrange diferentes escalas, de estrelas jovens a buracos negros supermassivos e núcleos ativos de galáxias. Acredita-se que jatos desempenham um papel central no controle da acresção de massa em proto-estrelas e buracos negros, assim como o crescimento de galáxia via AGN feedback; apesar de sua impo…
