Associate Professor at Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Florianópolis, Brazil, since 2014. Works in the field of Elementary Particle Physics, with emphasis on phenomenological applications of Quantum Chromodynamics to high-energy collisions, both in particle accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and in cosmic ray detectors. Has obtained, in collaboration with other researchers, significant results on the structure of the proton, the dynamics of quarks and gluons, and nuclear structure. Supervises Masters and PhD students in the Graduate Program in Physics at UFSC. Completed postdoctoral research at the Institute for Particle Physics Phenomenology (IPPP), Durham University, UK (2010/2011 and 2012/2013), and at Universidade de São Paulo (2011/2012 and 2013/2014). Holds a Bachelor's degree (2003), Master's (2005), and PhD (2010) in Physics from Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The purpose of the project is to study the high-energy (GeV TeV) hadron-hadron, hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus interactions, in order to clarify: a) the nature and properties of the nuclear matter, its forms of excitation and its new state under high-density and high-temperature conditions, the quark-gluon plasma; and b) the quark-gluon confinement in hadrons, interactions of the latt…
The LHC is producing a wealth of data on all aspects of particle physics and there are numerous projects of timely interest. We want to study the Drell-Yan production of low-mass high-rapidity lepton pairs, a process which is being observed by the LHCb experiment. We will develop a novel procedure showing that these data can measure the parton distribution functions of the proton in a ver…
