.: Welcome to my humble website

I am a graduate student of physics at IF/UFRGS. Here you can find some of the stuff I like doing, so take a look around. I would like to remember that this site is in under constant construction and will grow as my life goes on.

.: Research

My research focus on the analysis of star clusters in the Local Group. Right now I am starting to study tidal tails of globular clusters using the MOSAIC2 camera hosted at the Blanco telescope at CTIO. This project is part of the preparation for the Dark Energy Survey.

I have also researched middle aged clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud using the Southern Telescope for Astrophysical Research (SOAR). And in the recent past I have worked with very old globular clusters using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST).

I am advised by Prof. Basilio Xavier Santiago and funded by CNPq and CAPES
