The European Patent Office (EPO) has granted the IAC a patent on an invention developed within IACTEC-Space . This technology improves the quality of images obtained by high-performance cameras under the demanding conditions found in space. The effectiveness of this technology has already been tested on three space missions, applying it to the DRAGO (Demonstrator for Remote Analysis of Ground Observations) cameras, developed at the IAC for Earth observation from space. Carlos Colodro, electronics engineer at IACTEC-Space and the main person responsible for this development, comments thatAdvertised on -
An international team led by Cristina Ramos Almeida, a researcher at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), has used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to observe five dust-obscured quasars — and the results offer new insights into how galaxies and their central supermassive black holes may evolve. The study is published today in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics . The energy released by supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies is a fundamental ingredient in regulating the formation of new stars, and thus galaxy growth. This occurs during an active phase, usuallyAdvertised on -
The smallest galaxies in the cosmos are emerging as one of the greatest challenges for modern astrophysics. A team of researchers from the Universidad de La Laguna and the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) is studying these tiny systems to understand why they do not always match the predictions of the standard cosmological model. The work is carried out within the framework of the INGENIO project, funded by the Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI), which uses advanced cosmological simulations to reconstruct the galactic environment closest to the Milky Way and explore physicalAdvertised on
