Assistant Professor at the Astronomy Department of the Instituto de Astronomia, G. e C. Atmosféticas da Universidade de São Paulo (IAG-USP). He has PhD in Astronomy and BSc in Molecular Sciences from the University of Sao Paulo. He has postdoc experience at the IAG-USP (2013-2015) and at the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY-Zeuthen, 2015-2018). His main research topics are in the field of plasmas and high energy astrophysics, with emphasis on numerical simulations of cosmic ray and plasma phenomena with applications in the interstellar and extragalactic media.

Turbulence, magnetic fields and cosmic rays are present in the interstellar medium of the Galaxy and are strongly connected through complex plasma processes, such as turbulent dynamo, the scattering and acceleration of cosmic rays by turbulence, the generation of turbulence by instabilities produced by the cosmic rays. Indeed, turbulence can control the transport of magnetic fields and co…
Astrophysical plasmas can be distinguished into collisional or collisionless ones, depending on the scales of interest. In the collisional regime, the fast binary collisions rate keeps the particles thermal velocity isotropic. In this regime, the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) theory describes the large scale dynamics of the plasma. Many important predictions of astrophysical phenomena rely o…
