  • The structure and evolution of the galaxies and their central regions

    We propose to study the evolution of galaxies through detailed analysis of images and spectra obtained with the most modern ground- and space-based telescopes. We will concentrate on two related important open questions in modern astrophysical research: how do galaxies evolve over their lifetimes, possibly changing their appearance and

  • Seismology of bright stars (SONG and TESS)

    Main objective of this project is to maximize the scientific exploitation of the unique capabilities of SONG (Stellar Observations Network Group) high-precision radial velocity measurements and flexibility to execute robotic observations over long periods of time- on scientific programs up to now not achievable with any other space or ground based

  • Starbursts and evolution of galaxies

    Starsbursts play a key role in the cosmic evolution of galaxies, and so, in the star formation (SF) history of the universe, the production of metals, and the feedback coupling galaxies with the cosmic web. Extreme SF conditions prevail early on during the formation of the first stars and galaxies, therefore, the starburst phenomenon constitutes a

  • Space solar physics: PHI for Solar Orbiter and IMAX and SP for SUNRISE

    The Solar Orbiter mission was selected by ESA for the M1 slot within the Cosmic Vision program with a launch date in 2018. This proposal corresponds to the period of 2017-2020 and includes the integration of the SO/PHI instrument in the platform, the launch, and the two first years of commissioning prior to the first scientific operation orbits

  • Real and virtual galaxies: the formation of galaxies throughout cosmic history

    This project is the natural continuation of the Coordinated Projects AYA2007-67752, AYA2010-21322 and AYA2013-48226 that were carried out by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) and the Universitat de Valencia (UV). The fundamental objective of this proposal is to keep on deepening in our

  • Towards the characterization of planetary atmospheres and the search for life: Cheops, Carmenes

    Understanding the climate of our planet Earth is one of the greatest challenges in Science today. Much is still to be learned for example, on the variations of Earths albedo, or on external forcing factors, such as changes in the solar radiation. To truly go in depth into these open questions one may need to step out, view the Earth as a planet and
