This coordinated project focuses on the scientific preparations for the European Space Agency's PLATO mission, which aims to advance our knowledge of extrasolar planetary systems and their host stars by analysing planetary transits and by asteroseismic studies, based on high-precision light curves obtained by the mission. The project is part of a

Spectroscopy enables key physical insight in the study of exoplanets, stars, galaxies, and the interstellar and intergalactic media. Detailed spectroscopic studies of both bright and faint objects call for high dispersion at large telescopes to increase the photon-collecting area. High-resolution, high-stability spectroscopy is key for the precise

X-ray binaries (XRBs) are arguably the best sources for studying accretion and jets, because they traverse various accretion states with greatly differing jet strength, over timescales of the order of months, easily amenable to observation. Multi-wavelength variability data, combined with timing analysis techniques, provides information about the

The purpose of these fellowship is to promote the incorporation of research staff, Spanish or foreigner, with an outstanding track record, in Spanish R&D centers, in order for them to acquire the skills and abilities that allow them to obtain a stable position in a research body of the Spanish System of Science, Technology and Innovation. The

The project “Total Solar Eclipses in Spain and the NATE Experiment”, led by the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands (IAC) in collaboration with institutions from Spain and Morocco, aims to take advantage of the total solar eclipse of August 2, 2027, to carry out research, training, outreach, and international cooperation activities

The purpose of the aid is to train doctors through the financing of employment contracts, under the form of a predoctoral contract, so that the predoctoral research staff in training can carry out a doctoral thesis associated with a research project financed by the aid for R&D projects of the State Subprogram for Knowledge Generation within the
