The visible matter in the Universe is predominantly in a plasma state, i.e., it is composed of magnetized and ionized or partially ionized gas. The High Energy and Plasma Astrophysics group (GAPAE) at IAG-USP, having as partners researchers of CRAAM, EACH-USP and UFABC, has been exploring, for more than two decades, fundamental plasmas and high energy processes in astrophysical sources, u…
The standard lambdaCDM model of cosmology successfully reproduces the distribution of massive galaxies and clusters in the observable Universe, However, when applied to low mass galaxies, the model consistently overpredicts the number of low mass galaxy haloes that is observed in the Local Group. Previous efforts at modelling dwarf galaxies have focussed on the refinement of energetic ste…
In this grant proposal for joint FAPESP-UNSW funding, we propose to determine the role that turbulence plays in shaping the formation and structure of molecular clouds in the Milky Way Galaxy, and how this influences star formation at the scale of individual star forming clumps and cores. We will accomplish this by comparing large observational data sets of molecular clouds (from PI Cunni…
Most of the visible matter in the Universe is in a plasma state, i.e., is composed of ionized or partially ionized gas permeated by magnetic fields. The High Energy and Plasma Astrophysics group of E. M. de Gouveia Dal Pino of the Instituto de Astronomia, Geologia e Ciências Atmosféricas da Universidade de São Paulo (IAG-USP), A. B. M. Valio of the Centro de Radioastronomia e Astrofísica …

Many AGN jets exhibit complex morphologies with S-, X- or Z symmetric structures. Such radio jets may initiate complicated cavity systems in the intracluster medium with S- or X-shaped orientations. In the last few decades observational and theoretical evidences have been mounting that the jets of such systems are precessing. However, the precession mechanism of AGN jets and their dynamic…
Planetary nebulae are clouds of gas and dust resulting from the terminal stages of stars of low and intermediate masses. In spite of common sense, the morphology of these objects is not dominantly spherical. In fact, most of the observed structures are elliptical or bipolar, i.e., have a preferential axis of expansion. Also, in the last 20 years, high-resolution observations have revealed…
