Description
Overview of the science cases for, and technologies required for a new single dish sub-mm telescope. AtLAST is envisioned as a 50m diameter single dish with a 1deg field of view that will be able to map the large scale structures of the Universe inaccessible to ALMA with mapping speeds 1000s of times faster than current or planned facilities.

Molecular Gas and Dust in Galaxies Across Cosmic Time
Two of the most fundamental questions in astrophysics are the conversion of molecular gas into stars and how this physical process is a function of environments on all scales, ranging from planetary systems, stellar clusters, galaxies to galaxy clusters. The main goal of this internal project is to get insight into the formation and evolution of

    Copacabana: a probabilistic membership assignment method for galaxy clusters
    Cosmological analyses using galaxy clusters in optical/near-infrared photometric surveys require robust characterization of their galaxy content. Precisely determining which galaxies belong to a cluster is crucial. In this paper, we present the COlor Probabilistic Assignment of Clusters And BAyesiaNAnalysis (Copacabana) algorithm. Copacabana

    Constraints on compact objects from the Dark Energy Survey 5-yr supernova sample
    Gravitational lensing magnification of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) allows information to be obtained about the distribution of matter on small scales. In this paper, we derive limits on the fraction $\alpha$ of the total matter density in compact objects (which comprise stars, stellar remnants, small stellar groupings, and primordial black holes)

    Multiband Optical Variability of the Blazar 3C 454.3 on Diverse Timescales
    Due to its peculiar and highly variable nature, the blazar 3C 454.3 has been extensively monitored by the WEBT team. Here, we present for the first time these long-term optical flux and color variability results using data acquired in B, V, R, and I bands over a time span of about two decades. We include data from WEBT collaborators and public
