The exoplanet field has witnessed a revolution with the results of the Kepler and CoRoT space missions, which uncovered a large population of small planets, a few of which in the habitable zones of their stars. The more recent TESS mission is helping to make a census of planets with bright stellar hosts. Furthermore, a new generation of space

The Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), developed by the European Southern Observatory (ESO), will be the largest optical and infrared telescope ever built, with a 39-meter segmented mirror. This groundbreaking facility aims to transform our understanding of the Universe and offers significant opportunities for Spanish science and industry in advanced

This is a subproject that is part of a coordinated project of a clearly multidisciplinary nature. It focuses on an interdisciplinary subject by nature such as cultural astronomy, involving disciplines as diverse as astronomy, archaeology, anthropology or epigraphy, and even statistics, image processing, and remote sensing. The IAC has pioneered

Over the past two decades, our understanding of massive star evolution has undergone a paradigm shift. For nearly 40 years, theoretical and observational efforts focused on refining a framework in which massive stars were assumed to evolve predominantly as single, with four key factor playing a dominant role: mass, rotation, stellar winds, and

Cosmological simulations have become indispensable tools for understanding structure formation in the Universe. By modeling the complex interplay of gravity, baryonic physics, and galaxy formation across vast scales, these simulations provide crucial insights into the evolution of galaxies and the largescale structure of the cosmos. This project

The ESSTE-JWST Coordinated Project will investigate the surface and compositional properties of a diverse and representative sample of primitive small bodies across the Solar System, with the main goal of studying if there exists a continuum from the inner main belt to the outer and icy trans- Neptunian region. The project will focus on the non-icy
