Líneas de instrumentación: Instrumentación visible

Instrumentación visible

Desde sus orígenes, el Área de Instrumentación ha participado en la construcción de instrumentación para detectar y analizar luz en el rango visible del espectro. Cámaras, espectrógrafos, analizadores de polarización, sistemas alimentados por fibras ópticas, entre otros, han sido diseñados, construidos, integrados y verificados en nuestras instalaciones.

    Probing the roles of orientation and multiscale gas distributions in shaping the obscuration of active galactic nuclei through cosmic time
    The origin of obscuration in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is still an open debate. In particular, it is unclear what drives the relative contributions to the...

    QSOFEED: Relationship between star formation and active galactic nuclei feedback
    Context. Large-scale cosmological simulations suggest that feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) plays a crucial role in galaxy evolution. More...

    Quantifying Star Formation Activity in the Inner 1 kpc of Local MIR Bright QSOs
    We examine star formation activity in a distant (z 0.1) and flux-limited sample of quasars (QSOs). Midinfrared (MIR) spectral diagnostics at high spatial...

    Quantifying the AGN-driven outflows in ULIRGs (QUADROS) - I: VLT/Xshooter observations of nine nearby objects
    Although now routinely incorporated into hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy evolution, the true importance of the feedback effect of the outflows driven by...

    Quantifying the AGN-driven outflows in ULIRGs (QUADROS) - II. Evidencefor compact outflow regions from HST [O III] imaging observations
    The true importance of the warm, AGN-driven outflows for the evolution of galaxies remains uncertain. Measurements of the radial extents of the outflows are key...

    Quantifying the AGN-driven outflows in ULIRGs (QUADROS) IV: HST/STIS spectroscopy of the sub-kpc warm outflow in F14394+5332
    Considerable uncertainties remain about the nature of warm, AGN-driven outflows and their impact on the evolution of galaxies. This is because the outflows are...

    Quantifying the cool ISM in radio AGNs: evidence for late-time retriggering by galaxy mergers and interactions
    We use deep Herschel observations of the complete 2Jy sample of powerful radio active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the local Universe (0.05 < z < 0.7) to probe...

    Quasi-stellar objects in the ALHAMBRA survey. I. Photometric redshift accuracy based on 23 optical-NIR filter photometry
    Context. Even the spectroscopic capabilities of today's ground and space-based observatories can not keep up with the enormous flow of detections (>105 deg-2)...

    Recovering Age-Metallicity Distributions from Integrated Spectra: Validation with MUSE Data of a Nearby Nuclear Star Cluster
    Current instruments and spectral analysis programs are now able to decompose the integrated spectrum of a stellar system into distributions of ages and...
