  • Mineralogical characterization of asteroids and space exploration 2
    This project is a continuation of the CAMINA project (ProID2017010112). The science objective is the compositional characterization of asteroids, that we have been doing by means of three actions: (1) our participation in the two space missions that have visited and taken a sample of material from two near-Earth asteroids (NEAs), OSIRIS-REx (NASA)

  • Solving the longstanding mistery of the blue massive supergiants
    Massive stars are key astronomical objects for the study of the Universe through spaceand time. Ensuring reliable knowledge about the physical properties, evolution, and feedback of massive stars is of utmost importance forseveral topics at the forefront of modern astrophysics, including, e.g., chemodynamical evolution of galaxies, the reionization

  • Accurate linelists for exoplanet and very cool stars studies
    We are in the golden age for exoplanets studies, with currently several thousands of exoworlds discovered. Because of their low brightness and their large number, M dwarfs (~70% of stars) represent privileged targets to look for exoplanets. By essence, those objects are also cool objects, emitting significant fraction of their light in the infrared

  • Feasibility and conceptual study of the thermometers read-out chain and thermal control of the MHFT European telescopes of LiteBIRD.
    The main scientific goal of this project is the design of the read-out and thermal control system for the medium and high frequency telescopes (MHFT) of LiteBIRD, a JAXA-led space mission, currently in phase A, with launch expected for 2029. LiteBIRD will scan the sky from the second Lagrange point for 3 years, with the goal to produce an extremely

  • NanoFull: Fullerene- and graphene-based molecular nanostructures in circumstellar envelopes
    NanoFull is an ambitious interdisciplinary project to: i) understand the process of formation process of fullerene- and graphene-based molecular nanostructures in circumstellar envelopes through the decomposition of "natural" nanoparticles with aromatic and aliphatic composition; ii) detect other forms of carbon in space. Surprisingly, detections
