    El IAC organiza un congreso internacional que conmemora el 30 aniversario del descubrimiento de las primeras enanas marrones
    El Hotel Jardín Tecina de La Gomera ha sido la sede del congreso internacional “Brown dwarfs keep their cool. 30 years of substellar science” , organizado por los investigadores del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) Nicolas Lodieu y Victor J. S. Bejar, que ha reunido esta primera semana de septiembre a expertos de todo el mundo en el campo de los objetos subestelares. El encuentro conmemora el 30 aniversario de un descubrimiento histórico que marcó un antes y un después en la Astrofísica: la detección de las primeras enanas marrones. El acto inaugural contó con la presencia de

    Press release
    Nobel laureate Didier Queloz visits the IAC and outlines the ‘next frontier’ in the search for exoplanets
    The Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) welcomed the visit of Professor Didier Queloz, Nobel Laureate in Physics and co-discoverer of the first exoplanet orbiting a Sun-like star. Professor Queloz's stay at the IAC has focused on instrumental development and technological collaboration. As part of his agenda, he also gave a lecture entitled ‘Exoplanets: the next frontier’ in the IAC Lecture Hall. The researcher visited the IAC to supervise the installation of a new high-stability spectrograph on the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory on La Palma

    P-CORONA: A New Tool for Calculating the Intensity and Polarization of Coronal Lines in 3D Models of the Solar Corona
    The solar corona—the outermost layer of the Sun’s atmosphere—is extremely hot and very low in density. One of the main challenges in solar physics is understanding why the corona reaches temperatures of over a million degrees. This heating is believed to be closely related to the Sun’s magnetic field. However, quantifying the coronal magnetic field is difficult because the light emitted by the corona is extremely faint, and its polarization signals, which encode the information on the magnetic field, are subtle. Thanks to recent advances in technology, telescopes like the Daniel K. Inouye
