  • IAC contribution to Space missions: developments for SPICA and Athena and multiwavelength scientific exploitation of Herschel and other extragalactic surveys
    In the last two decades, Spain has built up strong IR and X-ray communities which have successfully contributed, at Co-I level, to the construction and to the scientific exploitation of basically all European InfraRed (IR) space instruments and to the participation in X-ray missions, including Athena. The IAC has contributed to the construction of

  • EMCCD camera with electronic shutter for uplink laser wavefront correction
    This funding will allow the purchase of a camera with electronic shutter and electronic multiplication as well, which is not availbable at the moment at IAC, and which will ne added to the set of cameras devoted to research and development. Since 1995, the IAC has been involved in many proyects related with optical communications in space, which

  • X-ray binaries: accretion, ejection and dynamical masses
    Black-holes and neutron stars are extremely important astrophysical objects, which become unique laboratories of extreme physics when found within X-ray binaries. Their study provides high-impact results, which are relevant for many astrophysics and fundamental physics areas. Our project target fundamental properties of both the accretion process

  • Primitive Asteroids Spectroscopic Study: Exploitation of data from GAIA and JWST
    Asteroids are considered the residual building blocks that formed the planets: a window to the formation and evolution of our solar system. Primitive asteroids (PAs) are characterized by dark surfaces dominated by carbon compounds and are associated to carbonaceous chondrites (CCs), the most pristine meteorites in our records. Both PAs and CCs are

  • Participation of IAC in the AMS experiment
    The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) is a general purpose high energy particle detector that was deployed to the International Space Station (ISS) on May 19, 2011 to conduct a unique long duration mission of fundamental physics research from space. Among the physics objectives of AMS are a search for Dark Matter, Antimatter, the study of
