I graduated in physics at the Universidade Estadual de Campinas (2012), and I have a Master's degree (2015) and a Ph.D. degree (2021) from Universidade de São Paulo. I was postdoctoral researcher at Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (2021-2022) and Universidade de São Paulo (2022-2023). I was a Visiting Student Research Collaborator at Princeton University during the summer 2014. I was also a visiting student at CEFCA, in Spain, from October 2014 to January 2015. I was a visiting student at the Laboratory of Astrophysics of Marseille (LAM) from June to December 2019. I have experience with ultra-high energy cosmic rays, extragalactic astronomy, galaxy interaction, and cosmology with quasars and AGNs, with focus on the (i) identification of quasars in narrow-band filter surveys (in particular, S-PLUS and J-PAS), (ii) separation of quasars, galaxies and stars; (iii) estimation of precise and accurate photometric redshifts for quasars; (iv) production of mock catalogs for cosmology.

Galaxies and quasars are the main extragalactic byproducts of surveys such as the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (I-II-III), WiggleZ, J-PAS, etc. However, the near-degeneracy of quasars with stars in color-color and color-magnitude plots makes it very hard to identify those objects with broad-band imaging, which is how SDSS and WiggleZ can target quasars. However, there is now a concrete possib…
Quasars and AGNs are believed to inhabit the centers of very massive halos. Their bias is strongly redshift-dependent, and can reach bq~10 at z~5. This means that they have great potencial to map large-scale estructure. The main challenges are: i) how to overcome the near-degeneracy of quasars with stars in color-color and color-magnitude diagrams, and how to obtain good photometric redsh…

The J-PAS survey of quasars and AGNs has the potential to become the largest, most complete survey of its kind, due to its narrow-band photometric system that can resolve the broad emission lines of quasars. With this BEPE project we will test our techniques (an optimized photo-z code and a machine-learning based spectrum classifier) and determine sets of criteria that would provide us co…
Quasars are the brightest non-transient objects in the Universe. They trace some of the heaviest halos, and are abundant at high redshifts, since their luminosity function peaks around $z~2$. These two facts imply that quasars (AGNs, in a more general sense) have a huge potential to help us map the web of structures of the Universe on its largest scales. This potential has not yet been fu…
