Pereira Nuno

Nuno José dos Santos Pereira started working in the Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy in the Solar Irradiance and Radiometry group on Solar irradiance data analysis from the SOLSPEC/ISS instrument. He also developed NIR ground-based instrumentation that successfully complemented SOLSPEC/ISS comprehension of the exo-atmospheric Solar spectral irradiance.

Further he took interest in the characterization of matrixial detectors, for each he developed radiometric benches and performed data analysis of the Flight and Spare Models H2RG detectors of the MAJIS/JUICE instrument as well as the ALTIUS EM UV and VIS e2V detectors.

He is currently a PhD candidate at the KU Leuven, on the development of the VenSpec-H/Envision instrument. More specifically to analyze the impact of instrumental features on science, extend radiative transfer models to Venus-like exoplanets and tackle some of the EnVision related science questions.
