  • PER ASPERA AD ASTRA - Erasmus+:Partnership agreement erasmus plus program for stays of researchers abroad
    We will support education with a lecture series given by experienced researched on astronomy science, observing and instrumentation topics for university students. Such lectures enhance the education of the next generation of astronomers and provide feedback for researchers from students. These topics will be covered by our more senior staff

  • Precision cosmology with the cosmic microwave background: QUIJOTE, PLANCK and other CMB experiments at the Teide Observatory
    The main goal of this project is to ensure the scientific exploitation of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments in which the IAC's cosmology group will be involved in the period 2018-2020: QUIJOTE, PLANCK and the new experiments to be installed at the Teide Observatory (TO) in this period (GroundBird, STRIP, KISS). The specific goals of

  • 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

  • X-ray binaries: accretion, ejection and dynamical masses
    Black-holes and neutron stars are extremely important astrophysical objects, which become unique laboratories of extreme physics when found within X-ray binaries. Their study provides high-impact results, which are relevant for many astrophysics and fundamental physics areas. Our project target fundamental properties of both the accretion process

  • Primitive Asteroids Spectroscopic Study: Exploitation of data from GAIA and JWST
    Asteroids are considered the residual building blocks that formed the planets: a window to the formation and evolution of our solar system. Primitive asteroids (PAs) are characterized by dark surfaces dominated by carbon compounds and are associated to carbonaceous chondrites (CCs), the most pristine meteorites in our records. Both PAs and CCs are

  • Participation of IAC in the AMS experiment
    The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) is a general purpose high energy particle detector that was deployed to the International Space Station (ISS) on May 19, 2011 to conduct a unique long duration mission of fundamental physics research from space. Among the physics objectives of AMS are a search for Dark Matter, Antimatter, the study of
