Based on statistics provided by the Kepler space mission and searches performed with Doppler techniques, super-Earth and Earth-like exoplanets (Rp ~ 0.8-2 times the Earth radius) could exist in about 10-20% of the Sun-like stars and potentially in more than 50% of the stars smaller than the Sun. Despite this, we still do not know which stars in the

NanoFull is an ambitious interdisciplinary project to: i) understand the process of formation process of fullerene- and graphene-based molecular nanostructures in circumstellar envelopes through the decomposition of "natural" nanoparticles with aromatic and aliphatic composition; ii) detect other forms of carbon in space. Surprisingly, detections

The objective of this initiative is to give continuity to the pending tasks in the construction and delivery of the MEU-PSU (Main Electronic Unit - Power Supply Unit) of the PLATO space mission. The main objective of PLATO is the identification and characterization of exoplanetary systems, focused on terrestrial-type planets in the habitable zone

Using the publicly available cosmological fields of MUSE, we plan to detect the gas that feeds star formation in nearby galaxies. It would be the first time this gas is detected in Ha. The main advantage of using Ha with respect to Lya (used at high redshift) is the possibility of measuring metallicity and, thus, to be able to distinguish between

uno en el hemisferio norte y otro en el sur, que cubrirán todo el cielo. Pretende abarcar una sensibilidad y un rango de energías en el espectro electromagnético (entre decenas de Gigaelectronvoltios -GeV- y cientos de Teraelectronvoltios-TeV-); un orden de magnitud superior al de la generación de telescopios actual CTA permitirá desarrollar por
