Field of Research
Studies of the interstellar medium in radio galaxies:
Mass dependency, space distribution and dynamics within elliptical galaxies (luminosity, rotation, environment).
Origin of the gas in the host elliptical galaxies.
Relationship between the molecular gas and the nuclear activity in radio galaxies.
Study of the interstellar medium of isolated galaxies.
Study of the radio source distribution in the TGSS sample.
Study of the minima timing of the eclipses of the low mass binary star system CM-Draconis.
2021 - Present: Adjunct Professor in the Astronomy Department of San Diego State University (SDSU)
2013: During my Post-Doctorate position in CAUP, I participated as a teacher in the Portuguese Astrocamp 2013. I taught a 15 hour class called: "Remote observations with MONET telescope".
2012-2014: Post-doctorate position at Centro de Astrofísica da Universidade do Porto (CAUP) in Porto,Portugal.
2011-2012: Post-doctorate in the National Center for Radio Astronomy (NCRA) in Pune, India.
2006-2010: Support Astronomer at the Institute of Milimetric Radio Astronomy: IRAM, while working on my PhD.
2010: PhD at the Institute of Milimetric Radio Astronomy (IRAM), in Granada, Spain. The topic of my PhD: Interstellar Medium in Nearby Elliptical Radio Galaxies.
2006: MAster thesis in the Instituto Astrofísico de Canarias (IAC). Topic: The minimum timming method for the low mass eclipsing binary sistem CM-Draconis. (Here you can see the publication of this work)
2003: Bachelors Degree in Astronomy and Astrophysics from Florida Institute of Technology (FIT).
