In less than a decade, our understanding of the Milky Way has largely increased. It is now clear that we live in a disc-like galaxy hosting several stellar structures, namely thin and thick discs, a
The Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation and the IAC has signed the ERDF Agreement INSIDE-OOCC (8,139 keuros) to guarantee the implementation of 11 actions of the Strategic Plan approved for
This project aims to study the variations of the solar magnetic field in flares, the most energetic events in our solar system. Flares accelerate charged particles into space, which may adversely
Stellar spectroscopy allows us to determine the properties and chemical compositions of stars. From this information for stars of different ages in the Milky Way, it is possible to reconstruct the
The IAC has long been aware of the importance of promoting initiatives for the characterization and protection of the Canarian Observatories (Roque de los Muchachos -ORM- on La Palma and Teide -OT- on
This project focuses on the systematic characterization of artificial space objects—including satellites, debris, spacecraft, and large satellite constellations—and on assessing their impact on
El CEI-CANARIAS Campus Atlántico Tricontinental de las universidades canarias es una apuesta geoestratégica-tricontinental para convertirse en el centro Atlántico referente como catalizador de talento
Accreting black-holes and neutron stars in X-ray binaries provide an ideal laboratory for exploring the physics of compact objects, yielding not only confirmation of the existence of stellar mass
This project has three major objectives: 1) To determine the physico-chemical characteristics of bipolar planetary nebulae and symbiotic nebulae, to help understanding the origin of bipolarity and to
