  • Near Earth Object Modelling and Payloads for Protection
    Multiple communities are now interested in NEOs for very different reasons ranging from science to planetary defence and commercial objectives (e.g., mining). Given the shared scientific and technological basis, all of these communities require knowledge and modelling capabilities of asteroid properties, as well as the capability to perform close

  • LT2/NRT New Robotic Telescope
    The NRT (New Robotic Telescope) is a project to design and build a 4-meter telescope within five years, which from the ORM will operate in a totally autonomous and robotic way. This form of operation will make it the largest robotic telescope in the world and, together with the exceptional conditions for astronomical observation of the ORM, in the

  • Constructive Preparatory Phase of the European Solar Telescope (EST) - Creation of the Project Office
    PREP-EST is a project funded by the Canary Islands Government under a direct grant awarded on grounds of public interest. The objective of PREP-EST is the realization of the preliminary design of systems and subsystems of the telescope to a sufficient level that allows starting the detailed design stage and, in a next phase, the beginning of the

  • Quasar feedback and molecular gas reservoirs
    The broad scientific objective of this project is to advance in our understanding of active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback and its connection with the galaxies molecular gas reservoirs. We will do so by performing the first multiphase characterization of outflow properties in a sample of nearby and luminous type-2 quasars (QSO2s). By combining our

  • Development of Big Data toos for the study of variable stars in galaxies with LSST data
    The objective of this proposal is the development of data analysis tools in preparation for the scientific exploitation of LSST, the largest mapping project of the southern sky that will begin observations in 2023. Specifically, the fundamental objective is the analysis of time series for the search and characterization of variable stars in

  • The reionization of the universe
    The Universe's re-ionisation is at the forefront of research. How the re-ionisation occurred is however still not known. This project intents to understand the mechanisms that produce the reionsation. Besides it deals with the most active sources that take part in the re-ionisation. In this project we will emphasised the study of LAEs with double
