  • At the forefront of Galactic Archaelogy: evolution of the luminous and dark matter components of the Milky Way and Local Group dwarf galaxies in the Gaia Era
    We propose to investigate fundamental questions concerning the formation and evolution of galaxies, by adopting the Galactic Archaeology approach. As the Sun is treated as a special star for the incredible amount of detail with which it can be studied, in the same way the Milky Way (MW) and Local Group (LG) galaxies are considered the Rosetta Stone

  • Precision cosmology with the Cosmic Microwave Background: QUIJOTE and other microwave experiments at the Teide Observatory, and
    The main goals of this project are to cover, during the period 2020-2022, the scientific exploitation of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments in which the IAC cosmology group is involved (QUIJOTE, TMS, KISS, GroundBIRD and LSPE-STRIP), and contribute to the preparation for the scientific exploitation of the future LiteBIRD mission, to

  • Galaxy Clusters: abundance, formation and evolution from a cosmological approach
    This proposal seeks the scientific exploitation of the project on Dynamics of cool-core galaxy clusters, the mapping Cosmological Galaxy Clusters, and the galaxy cluster surveys of the EUCLID space mission in the coming years. The objectives of the project here presented are: 1) To investigate the nature of galaxy clusters with cool-cores, their

  • Multiband study of rapid variability in X-ray binaries
    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. However, despite the rapid increase in our phenomenological knowlege of jets, we still lack a fundamental

  • RR Lyrae stars, a lighthouse to the distant Universe and the early evolution of galaxies
    The general objective of this project is to exploit the potential of the Gaia mission, combined with the database built by our team in the last years, to bring substantial improvement in the determination of stellar distances and the early evolution of the LG galaxies. We will combine high resolution spectroscopy, optical and NIR photometric time

  • Orientatio ad Sidera V: astronomy, science and heritage, a multidisciplinary approach
    This project proposes a new approach to the studies of cultural astronomy (archaeoastronomy and ethnoastronomy) from a novel perspective, this time being the first occasion since this line of research began in Spain in which two institutions of recognized prestige and which are worldwide leaders in the field, the Institute of Astrophysics of the
