  • Detecting farside active regions with Deep Learning
    The identification of active regions in the far-side of the Sun by analyzing the oscillations on the Earth-side is one of the most impressive results from local helioseismology. The interest in the detection of active regions in the farside goes beyond the simple curiosity of measuring them before they rotate into the visible hemisphere. Due to the

  • Detection and characterization of Earth-like planets in nearby stars
    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

  • JADES: JWST + ALMA Dust Enshrouded Star-formation in the Spiderweb protocluster at the cosmic noon

    The distribution of matter within the Universe is defined by a complex multi-scale interconnected network of filaments known as the cosmic web, with extremely dense regions called galaxy clusters residing at its nodes and hosting hundreds of galaxies. During the cosmic noon (about 10 billion years ago), these clusters were still being assembled (

  • The evolution of galaxy clusters from cosmic dawn to noon
    Our overall aim is to understand the role of environment in regulating galaxy growth from the first overdensities at z~6, cosmic dawn, to the galaxy clusters forming at the epoch of peak star formation, z~2, cosmic noon. To accomplish this goal, we have and will assemble a vast data set spanning a wide range of frequencies from the UV to the radio

  • Seismology and sTellar Rotation with TESS
    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

  • Participation in the NISP instrument and preparation for the scientific exploitation of Euclid
    Esclarecer las propiedades de la materia y la energía oscura es uno de los problemas clave de la astrofísica actual. Este es el principal objetivo de la misión Euclid, considerada como el desafío más ambicioso de la astrofísica europea para los próximos años. Euclid realizará cartografiados tanto fotométricos como espectroscópicos que generarán los
