Participation of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias in the development of HARMONI: Rescope study
The Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), developed by the European Southern Observatory (ESO), will be the largest optical and infrared telescope ever built, with a 39-meter segmented mirror. This groundbreaking facility aims to transform our understanding of the Universe and offers significant opportunities for Spanish science and industry in advanced
The structure and evolution of galaxies and their outskirts
We propose to study the evolution of galaxies through detailed analysis of observational data obtained with the most modern ground- and space-based telescopes. We will concentrate on two related important open questions in modern astrophysical research: how can deep imaging of large samples of galaxies uncover solutions to reported inconsistencies
AMS-02 (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer) is a multi-purpose particle physics detector that was deployed in the International Space Station (ISS) on May 19, 2011. The experiment was designed to measure the flux of cosmic rays with unprecedented precision, which allows to study the origin and propagation of cosmic rays in the Milky Way. The main
Grant Agreement ERASMUS+ Program Astrojourneys Project
Astro-Journeys is an Erasmus+ KA2 partnership project, involving 9 organisations from 5 countries that have years of experience in astronomy education. The aim of the project is to offer an interdisciplinary learning experience through an AI-supported platform where educators and learners collaborate to shape each learner’s unique Astro-Journey
B-CycleS is born as an ambitious long-term research program that aims to provide a comprehensive picture for the formation and evolution of galaxies by studying the interplay between their two basic constituents: baryons and dark matter. B-CycleS is rooted in the detailed analysis of the stellar population properties of galaxies and equipped with
