Carolina Benone, former group member, within a joint Ph.D. with UFPA-Brazil, was one of the winners of the 19th edition of "For Women in Science", an initiative carried out by the L’Oréal Group in Brazil in partnership with the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (ABC) and UNESCO. Congratulations Carolina! More info here.
The VI Amazonian Symposium on Physics took place in UFPA, Belém, Brazil, from 18-22 November 2024, also with the partnership of the NewFunFiCO network. Many exciting talks and science and the unsurpassable hosting by the UFPA group and Brazilian collegues.
C. Herdeiro gave an invited colloquium at Scuola Superiore Meridionale, in Naples, overlooking the powerful Vesuvius. The colloquium took place in the premises of Accademia Pontaniana, the oldest Academy in Europe

The VI Amazonian Symposium on Physics will take place in Belém, Brazil, from 18-22 November 2024, jointly organized and with a strong participation of our group and integrated in the NewFunFiCO network.
C. Herdeiro visited the U. Federal do Pará, Brazil, and presented a seminar on Oct 23rd about the recent paper "Black holes in scalar multipolar Universes". The beautiful blossomed tree is "Pau Brasil" that names the country, due to its ember-colour wood.
It has been believed that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the majority of nearby galaxies in the universe are powered by accretion flows. Observational evidence and many numerical simulations show of elliptical galaxies have revealed a surprising fact, in the densest regions of massive elliptical galaxies the hot gas rotates very slowly.
A team of Gr@v Ph.D. students led by José Ferreira, featuring also Manuel Mariano and Nuno Santos participated in the European Researchers Night at Fábrica, the Aveiro outreach science centre. Amongst the attractions, there was the lensing effect due to a black hole that caught the public's attention.
Sergio Xavier, who obtained his Ph.D. from U. Federal do Pará, Brazil, under the supervision of Prof. L. Crispino in August 2024, received a best poster award in the XLII Brazilian National Meeting on the Physics of Particles and Fields. The poster was on work in collaboration with our group.
