  • Dissecting the binary cores of a planetary nebula: a novel view of chemical abundances and gas kinematics

    We propose a joint theoretical and observational project aimed to probe the link between binary central stars of planetary nebulae (PNe) and the chemical composition and kinematics of their gaseous envelopes. We will extend our pioneering work and continue with our surveys to find new central binary systems. This will eventually provide the still

  • 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

  • Unveiling the Properties of Stellar Fosils in the Local Group Environment

    The main objective of this project is the study of the primeval star formation in nearby systems. In particular, we will address this research in three fundamental types: (1) the Local Group dwarf galaxies; (2) the Milky Way (MW) bulge and old disk populations; and (3) the Milky Way globular clusters. This kind of investigation is mandatory in

  • High resolution spectroscopy oriented to the study of exoearths and the formation of the Milky Way. Scientific exploitation of ESPRESSO and HORS

    High Resolution stable spectrographs, coupled to large-size telescopes such as VLT or GTC, will allow us to extract in detail the dynamical and chemical information of stars across the Milky Way. The ESPRESSO spectrograph, in whose Science Team the PIs are involved, and which will be installed at the VLT in Winter 2017, will allows us to discover
