Rafael Palota da Silva

Doutor em Física na área de partículas elementares e campos pela Universidade Federal de Pelotas - UFPel (2020), com mestrado na mesma área pela Universidade Federal do Rio Grande - FURG (2016). Durante o mestrado recebeu menção honrosa pela apresentação do trabalho intitulado Multiple photon production in double parton scattering at the LHC no XIII International Workshop on Hadron Physics. No doutorado desenvolveu pesquisas em processos difrativos nas colisões hadrônicas de altas energias. Possui Bacharelado em Física (2015) e Licenciatura em Física (2010) pela FURG. Durante a graduação participou do projeto de extensão PAIETS nos anos de 2007 e 2008 como professor e coordenador das disciplinas de Física e Matemática. Ainda na graduação foi bolsista PIBID atuando em atividades como oficinas e projetos educacionais nas escolas públicas estaduais. Também atuou como professor de Física no Instituto Estatual de Educação Juvenal Miller de 2011 a 2018. Neste instituto foi professor supervisor do PIBID durante os anos de 2012 e 2013.

PhD in Physics in the area of ​​elementary particles and fields from the Federal University of Pelotas - UFPel (2020), with a master's degree in the same area from the Federal University of Rio Grande - FURG (2016). During his master's, he received an special mention for the presentation of his work entitled Multiple photon production in double parton scattering at the LHC at the XIII International Workshop on Hadron Physics. During his PhD, he developed research on diffractive processes in high-energy hadronic collisions. He holds a Bachelor's Degree in Physics (2015) and a Degree in Physics (2010) from FURG. During his graduation, he participated in the PAIETS extension project in 2007 and 2008 as a professor and coordinator of the disciplines of Physics and Mathematics. Still in graduation, he was a PIBID scholarship holder, working in activities such as workshops and educational projects in state public schools. He also served as a professor of Physics at the State Institute of Education Juvenal Miller from 2011 to 2018. At this institute, he was a supervisory professor at PIBID during the years 2012 and 2013.
