  • Uncovering the exoplanetary zoo in our Galaxy
    The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is a NASA mission that started scientific operations in July 2018. Over two years it will cover the entire sky, searching for planetary transits in stars with magnitudes brighter than 14. Data covering the first 3 weeks of the mission were released in September 2018, and within days a super-earth

  • UNVEILING THE COMPLEXITY OF RADIO FOREGROUNDS FOR THE DETECTABILITY OF THE CMB POLARIZATION B-MODE
    The aim of RadioForegroundsPlus is to combine the nine Planck all-sky (30-857 GHz) maps, with three unique low-frequency data sets: the QUIJOTE maps (at 11, 13, 17 and 19 GHz), the C-BASS survey (at 5 GHz) and the S-PASS data (at 2.3 GHz) to provide the best possible characterization of the physical properties of polarized emissions in the

  • Unveiling the missing populations of X-ray binaries: dormant black holes and ultra-compact systems
    X-ray binaries are excellent laboratories to study the physics of relativistic stars. On the one hand, they provide robust evidence for the existence of black holes (BHs), the pinnacle of extreme gravity. On the other, they allow investigations on neutron stars (NS) the densest form of matter known. In addition, accretion on matter (provided by the

  • 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

  • Using machine-learning techniques to drag galaxies from the noise in deep imaging
    We propose to extend our current lead in the area of deep astronomical imaging to decipher the secrets of galaxy formation and evolution. In particular, we will prepare for the imaging from the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) to which we will soon have privileged access. The LSST project is truly a 'Big Data' project in astrophysics, which
