Last night, the 5,000 fibre-optic ‘eyes’ of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) reached a major milestone, having fully covered the area originally planned for its map of the universe. Thus, DESI’s five-year programme has concluded ahead of schedule and with far more data than expected, resulting in the largest high-resolution 3D map of the universe ever produced. This map will enable researchers to explore dark energy, which accounts for 70% of the universe and drives its accelerated expansion. By comparing how galaxies were distributed in the past with their current
La sede del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias acoge la reunión anual del proyecto CLUES, una iniciativa que utiliza simulaciones cosmológicas avanzadas para estudiar la formación y evolución de las estructuras del Universo cercano. La sede del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), en La Laguna (Tenerife), acoge entre los días 22 y 26 de junio la reunión científica anual del proyecto internacional CLUES ( Constrained Local UniversE Simulations ), una colaboración que reúne a especialistas en cosmología, simulaciones numéricas y formación de galaxias con el objetivo de reconstruir la
The Museum of Science and the Cosmos (MCC), part of the Autonomous Organization of Museums and Centers of the Cabildo of Tenerife, will host the second session of the scientific outreach series “From the Sky to the Thesis” on Thursday, September 25, at 4:30 p.m. The series is organized in collaboration with the University of La Laguna (ULL) and the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands (IAC). The initiative, promoted by doctoral students from the IAC, seeks to bring the main topics of research in astrophysics closer to the public, told in the first person by those who develop them
