Dr. Wuensche has a degree in physics from the State University of Rio de Janeiro, a M.Sc. degree in Astrophysics from the National Institute for Space Research and a Ph.D. in Astrophysics from the National Institute of Space Research, with a 2 1/2 year internship at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He is a senior researcher at the National Institute for Space Research. He has experience in Astronomy, with emphasis on Cosmology, acting mainly on the following themes: Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR), Cosmology, Galactic Emission in Microwaves, and Instrumentation in Radio Astronomy. He has participated in several international projects related to the study of Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation since 1991. He is also interested in Astrobiology, with a focus in habitability and astrochemistry. He was Head of the Astrophysics Division (2002 - 2004) and Chief of Staff of the INPE Director (2012 - 2016). He is currently the head of the Experimental Cosmology group of the Astrophysics Division/INPE, member of the Technical-Scientific Council (CTC) of INPE (2020 - 2022) and PI of the BINGO project (BAO Intergalactic Neutral Gas Observations), in partnership with USP, Univ. Federal of Campina Grande, Univ. Manchester (England) and YangZhou University (China) (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

BINGO is a unique radio telescope designed to make the first detection of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) at radio frequencies. This will be achieved by measuring the distribution of neutral hydrogen gas at cosmological distances using a technique called Intensity Mapping. Along with the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies, the scale of BAO is one of the most powerful probes of co…

This project contemplates the development of the necessary tools to carry out cross correlations between simulated BINGO data and optical survey catalogs. Particularly in this work, the 6dF Galaxy Redshift Survey catalog will be included. At the end of the master's degree, the student must master the necessary tools to perform the correlations, know the physical processes that can be expl…
Recent measurements of cosmological observables, such as the Type Ia Supernovae, the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation, the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO), among others, allow us to discriminate between cosmological models, and indicate the $\Lambda$CDM as the favored model. Still, several questions remain open, among them: How is the Universe structured on large scales? Is …
The proposal is directed to the development of the instrumentation to be used in the BINGO telescope (Baryon acoustic oscillations in Neutral Gas Observations) and in the study of cross correlations of BINGO data with galaxies of other surveys.
In the last years, the so-called f(R) gravity theories have attracted a lot of attention due to possibility of construct cosmological models capable of explain different astrophysical data available in the literature without that we need to postulate exotic forms of matter and energy that, invariably, have unexpected physical properties as, for example, energy conditions violation and neg…
