The Atmospheric Remote-sensing Infrared Exoplanet Large-survey (Ariel) mission will address the fundamental questions on what exoplanets are made of and how planetary systems form and evolve by investigating the atmospheres of many hundreds of diverse planets orbiting different types of stars. This large and unbiased survey will contribute to

CosmoLAB is a project of the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands in collaboration with the Cabildo of Tenerife, whose objective is to encourage the educational community of the island to identify the scientific culture, the sky of the Canary Islands and its observatories as part of its own natural heritage and cultural. Within the

Understanding how galaxies form and evolve in the Universe is a key, long-term goal of Astrophysics. In this regard, our Galaxy provides unique insights because, due to its proximity, detailed galactic properties can be resolved that can unravel its formation history. For this reason, the international community and in particular European countries

Massive stars are those with more than ~8 solar masses, the limit above which stars may undergo a core collapse supernova (SN) explosion at the end of its life. They have played a critical role in how the Universe has evolved and to understand this role we need to know the physics ruling them and the evolutionary paths they follow. In the last

Cosmological simulations of galaxy formation have increasingly become instrumental tools in advancing our understanding of structure formation in the Universe. Such simulations follow the nonlinear evolution of galaxies by modelling the essential physical processes involved in galaxy formation over a huge range of temporal and spatial scales

The goal is to investigate dark energy and the accelerated expansion of the Universe, as well as the clustering properties of dark matter from large-scale structure data.To this end, we want to apply novel analysis techniques, which combine data modelling,data simulation, and data analysis.The first step requires modelling and simulating the
