Massive stars are those with more than ~8 solar masses, the limit above which stars may undergo a core collapse supernova (SN) explosion at the end of its life. They have played a critical role in how the Universe has evolved and to understand this role we need to know the physics ruling them and the evolutionary paths they follow. In the last

Numerical invetigation of the environment and evolution of galaxies
Cosmological simulations of galaxy formation have increasingly become instrumental tools in advancing our understanding of structure formation in the Universe. Such simulations follow the nonlinear evolution of galaxies by modelling the essential physical processes involved in galaxy formation over a huge range of temporal and spatial scales

Big Data of the Cosmic Web
The goal is to investigate dark energy and the accelerated expansion of the Universe, as well as the clustering properties of dark matter from large-scale structure data.To this end, we want to apply novel analysis techniques, which combine data modelling,data simulation, and data analysis.The first step requires modelling and simulating the

Getting Ready for the Adaptive Optics of EST
The overall objective of this proposal is to support the continuation of the Multi Conjugated Adaptive Optics (MCAO) demonstrator for the European Solar Telescope (EST). EST will be the largest solar telescope in Europe. It will include a 4-meter diameter primary mirror and the most advanced technologies, providing astronomers with a unique tool to

Planetary protection - Young People as Agents of Change
The IAC has been participating in the "Planet Change" project [this is how we call it for short] since October 2022. The project, financed by the European Commission within the framework of the Erasmus + program, has the mission of transferring "VET" students -Vocational and Educational Training- which in Spain would be high school and FP, aged
