    La física que explica el Universo también podría ayudar a entender el cerebro
    Un investigador del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias propone un lenguaje científico común para explicar cómo surgen estructuras organizadas tanto en el Universo como en el cerebro humano, y defiende que las herramientas de la cosmología pueden aplicarse al estudio del cerebro. ¿Qué pueden tener en común la red de galaxias que puebla el Universo y la red de conexiones del cerebro humano? A simple vista, muy poco: sus tamaños, sus componentes y las fuerzas que los rigen no tienen nada que ver. Sin embargo, ambos sistemas comparten algo llamativo: forman estructuras complejas, con

    The William Herschel telescope at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory discovers a mysterious iron “bar” in the Ring Nebula
    Research carried out with the new WEAVE spectrograph, installed on the William Herschel Telescope (WHT) at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory (La Palma), and in whose construction the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) has participated, has found a mysterious bar-shaped cloud of iron inside the iconic Ring Nebula. The study was conducted by a European team led by astronomers at University College London (UCL) and Cardiff University, and includes researchers from the IAC. The cloud of iron atoms, described for the first time in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
