The Sun is well known for its magnetic activity, including periodic flares that rise from its surface when magnetic field lines tangle, cross or reorganise near sunspots. Flares send streams of charged particles into space. If they are directed towards Earth, these particles can disrupt satellites or cause colourful auroral displays. The EU-funded

The last decade, the CoRoT and Kepler/K2 missions have showed the power of asteroseismology in order to determine the fundamental stellar parameters with a better precision than the classical methods. In 2018, NASA successfully launched the TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission that will continue the search of exoplanets and allow us

This action aims to acquire the hardware and build an ATLAS unit at the Teide Observatory (OT) in order to integrate the OT and the IAC Solar System group in one of the most important surveys of NEOs. ATLAS is an early detection system for objects that can collide with the Earth, composed of a network of 50cm telescopes, at f / D = 2 and a wide

The main goal of the project is to establish a “hub” of international excellence in the Macaronesian region, focused on Technological R+D+i, sustainability, ICTs and training, applied to medicine and inclusive with Africa and developing countries. Specific goals: 1. To achieve skills and carry out R+D+i in the Macaronesian technological "hub", of

POLMAG aims at a true breakthrough in the development and application of polarized radiation diagnostic methods for exploring the magnetic fields of the chromosphere, transition region and corona of the Sun via the interpretation of the Stokes profiles produced by optically polarized atoms and the Hanle and Zeeman effects in ultraviolet (UV)
