  • The reionization of the universe
    The Universe's re-ionisation is at the forefront of research. How the re-ionisation occurred is however still not known. This project intents to understand the mechanisms that produce the reionsation. Besides it deals with the most active sources that take part in the re-ionisation. In this project we will emphasised the study of LAEs with double

  • Star formation scaling-laws at Parsecs Scale
    The project focuses on the analysis of the scaling-laws of star forming regions in the circumnuclear zone -central kpc- of a sample of six nearby galaxies selected with different star formation morphology (disk, ring or nuclear) and host galaxy type (Sa to EO). The project relies on an unique high-angular resolution dataset that resolves - in the

  • Brown dwarfs as exoplanet analogues
    Although thousands of brown dwarfs and extrasolar planets have been discovered up to date, their formation and evolution models remains unknown. Hence, it is necessary to identify these objects in a wider range of effective temperature, gravity and metallicity to understand them. The main scientific objective of our project is to identify and

  • Participation of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias in the development of the HARMONI instrument for the Extremely Large Telescope: Phase-D1
    The European Southern Observatory (ESO) is building a segmented and adaptive telescope with a 39-metre primary mirror, the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). It will significantly improve our knowledge in most branches of Astrophysics and, therefore, it is widely supported by the scientific community. The ELT programme represents a major opportunity

  • Near Earth Object Modelling and Payloads for Protection
    Multiple communities are now interested in NEOs for very different reasons ranging from science to planetary defence and commercial objectives (e.g., mining). Given the shared scientific and technological basis, all of these communities require knowledge and modelling capabilities of asteroid properties, as well as the capability to perform close

  • Participation of IAC in the AMS experiment
    The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a general purpose high energy particle detector that was deployed to the International Space Station (ISS) on May 19, 2011 to conduct a unique long duration mission of fundamental physics research from outer space. Among the physics objectives of AMS are a search for Dark Matter and Antimatter, the study of
