Physics and Engineering are areas that continue to be perceived by society as "male professions" and in which women are still under-represented. In 2017, a group of female colleagues from the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) began to meet with the aim of co-creating activities that would contribute to changing gender stereotypes in these

Context. The Hayabusa2 spacecraft launched by Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency has been conducting observations of the asteroid (162173) Ryugu since June 2018. The Telescopic Optical Navigation Camera (ONC-T) onboard Hayabusa2 has obtained thousands of images under a variety of illumination and viewing conditions. Aims: Our objective is to

Como investigadores, trabajamos para la gente. Nuestra carrera científica suele estar financiada con fondos públicos y podemos ayudar a periodistas y divulgadores profesionales a transmitir nuestro trabajo a la sociedad para convertirlo en un genuino legado público. Gaveta de Astrofísica consiste en una página bisemanal publicada en el periódico El

Context. M 33 is a gas rich spiral galaxy of the Local Group. Its vicinity allows us to study its interstellar medium (ISM) on linear scales corresponding to the sizes of individual giant molecular clouds. Aims: We investigate the relationship between the two major gas cooling lines and the total infrared (TIR) dust continuum. Methods: We mapped

Upcoming deep surveys (e.g. LSST, JWST, EUCLID) will provide high quality imaging at unprecedentedly high red shifts, allowing the study of galaxy morphology at different cosmic times. The processing of such data will be necessarily automatized due to its enormous volume. Deep Learning has proven to be a powerful tool in these situations. Previous

We present an overview of the sample of Northern hemisphere white dwarfs within 40 pc of the Sun detected from Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2). We find that 521 sources are spectroscopically confirmed degenerate stars, 111 of which were first identified as white dwarf candidates from Gaia DR2 and followed up recently with the William Herschel Telescope
