I got my degree in physic from Universidade de São Paulo (2004), a master's in physic from Universidade de São Paulo (2006), and a doctorate in physic also from Universidade de São Paulo (2011). I did a post-doc at the Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik (MPI). I have experience in experimental nuclear physics, acting on the following subjects: particle accelerators, applied physics with particle accelerators and beam diagnostics. I also develop instrumentation for high-energy particle physics, in particular developing micro-patterned gaseous detectors, as a member of the ALICE experiment and RD51 at the CERN.

Radiation gaseous detectors have always played a vital role in developing nuclear physics. The recent technology of Micro-Patterned Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs) has become widely adopted in high-energy physics experiments due to its cost-effective instrument for larger areas, low material budget, and high radiation hardness. A worldwide community has been working to improve spatial and tempo…
We propose an alternative route to the conventional production of Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) type detectors used in nuclear and particle physics for radiation detection. Currently such detectors, as used at CERN for example, are produced by lithography and chemical etching. Such a method limits geometric variations of the devices and is relatively slow in the production of modified des…

The project aims to perform nuclear cross-section measurements for material analysis applications, with a focus on quantifying the lithium-6 isotope in fusion-related studies. Using the recently improved experimental setup at LAMFI-USP, measurements of elastic scattering and nuclear reactions of protons incident on lithium-6 will be conducted, along with a detailed assessment of experimen…
The micro-patterned gaseous detectors are a new generation of radiation detectors that are widely used in particle and high-energy nuclear physics experiments. Their adoption in time projection chambers makes it possible to determine the trajectories of charged particles in a three-dimensional space, with the advantage over the predecessor technology of a continuous measurement in time an…
Gaseous radiation detectors have always played an important role in nuclear physics, with recent highlights being the Time-Projection Chambers (TPCs) present in the vast majority of large high-energy physics experiments. Recently, advances achieved with the introduction of Gaseous Electron Multipliers (GEMs) have provided technical advantages that reflected in better resolution and better…

The inspection of GEM foils is crucial for quality assurance of the manufacturing process and methods. In addition, it is intended to provide quantitative measurements of whether the mechanical tolerances defined by simulation have been met experimentally. For this, implementing a high-resolution optical scanner is employed to obtain a wide-field high-resolution image of the foil, enablin…
This project aims to develop intelligent systems for large-scale nuclear backscatter spectrometry analysis using ion beams for material characterization. Furthermore, we intend the codes as capable of producing evaluations of sample parameters with metrological quality for the preparation of reports and analysis pages. It is also a goal of this project to analyze data from a study of the …
The invention of micro-patterned gaseous detectors has triggered a number of researches and developments in a new generation of gaseous detectors. One particular model has attracted much attention from several research groups: the Gaseous Electron Multiplier (GEM). This technology enables the development of unprecedented spatial resolution detectors capable of high rates of events, as wel…
