Research led by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) has discovered that, in binary systems, stars that evolve into red giants change the way they rotate with their companions, making their orbits more circular. The result was achieved after studying nearly 1000 solar-like oscillating stars in binary systems, the greatest yield to date of such objects. For their identification, the third Gaia Data Release (Gaia-DR3) and NASA Kepler and TESS catalogs have been explored. The study has been published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics and has been selected as the most recentAdvertised on -
The Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias has put itself on the frontier of astrophysical technology by developing the first integrated photonic circuit designed entirely within the Institute. This pioneering advance will permit the improvement of astronomical instruments, and the development of innovative systems for observing the universe. Astrophysical instrumentation, for both ground-based and space-based use is so specialized that often comercial systems and subsystems do not come up to the required specifications, This makes it necessary to buy high priced components or to delegateAdvertised on -
El programa Investigadores Visitantes Fundación Occident del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) sigue su curso con la recepción de un nuevo grupo de personal investigador procedente de distintos centros del mundo. Los investigadores cubrirán un amplio espectro de disciplinas, desde cosmología y astrofísica de partículas hasta física estelar, formación de galaxias y sistemas planetarios. Su presencia y colaboración con el personal investigador del IAC fortalecerá la actividad científica tanto del centro canario como de las personas invitadas y de sus centros de origen, fortaleciendoAdvertised on
