Early Research  
 
  •  Post-Doc in the Department of Physics of University of Surrey; October 1995-96: few body theory extending the thesis work into the proton dripline; study of core excitation in systems that play a role in nucleosysnthesis; the antisymmetrization problem in cluster models.  

  •  
  •  PhD in "Core Excitation in Few Body Systems (Application to Light Exotic Nuclei)"; October 1992-1995: the study of core excitation in two and three body models of the type core+neutrons; application to Be, C and Li siotopes (supervisors: I.J. Thompson and R.C. Johnson, funded by JNICT-Portugal).

  •  
  • Undergraduate project on "The Born-Oppenheimer Equation for solving the three body problem in momentum space using sturmians: application to H, and muonic molecules"; October 1991-92 (supervised by Prof. A. C. Fonseca).
