An international team composed of Drs. Sylvain G. Korzennik, from the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian , and Antonio Eff-Darwich Peña, from the University of La Laguna and the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias, has published a pioneering study aimed at improving our understanding of the Sun’s internal structure. The work, published in The Astrophysical Journal , stands out for its use of exceptionally long helioseismic time series, exceeding twenty-five years of continuous observations, to analyze the deepest layers of the Sun. Helioseismology is the study of patterns of

The European Patent Office (EPO) has granted the IAC a patent on an invention developed within IACTEC-Space . This technology improves the quality of images obtained by high-performance cameras under the demanding conditions found in space. The effectiveness of this technology has already been tested on three space missions, applying it to the DRAGO (Demonstrator for Remote Analysis of Ground Observations) cameras, developed at the IAC for Earth observation from space. Carlos Colodro, electronics engineer at IACTEC-Space and the main person responsible for this development, comments that
