  • IAC contribution to PRIMA and multiwavelength scientific exploitation

    In the last two decades, Spain has built up and consolidated a strong infrared community that has successfully contributed to the construction and scientific exploitation of basically all European space instruments in this energy range. The IAC has contributed to the construction of infrared instruments for the space telescopes ISO (ISOPHOT-S) and

  • The structure and evolution of galaxies and their outskirts

    We propose to study the evolution of galaxies through detailed analysis of observational data obtained with the most modern ground- and space-based telescopes. We will concentrate on two related important open questions in modern astrophysical research: how can deep imaging of large samples of galaxies uncover solutions to reported inconsistencies

  • Participation of IAC in the AMS experiment

    AMS-02 (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer) is a multi-purpose particle physics detector that was deployed in the International Space Station (ISS) on May 19, 2011. The experiment was designed to measure the flux of cosmic rays with unprecedented precision, which allows to study the origin and propagation of cosmic rays in the Milky Way. The main

  • The whole sun project: untangling the complex physical mechanisms behind our eruptive star and its twins: "Whole sun"

    The Sun is a magnetically active star with violent eruptions that can hit Earth´s magnetosphere and cause important perturbations in our technology-dependent society. The objective of the Whole Sun project is to tackle in a coherent way for the first time key questions in Solar Physics that involve as a whole the solar interior and atmosphere.

  • ATLAS-ICTS2022: Implementation of actions to improve OCAN.

    Early detection of asteroids with Earth-impact orbits is a fundamental part of the Planetary Defense strategy. Technology has advanced to the point where it is possible to image the entire sky each night and process the data in real time. Various surveys have been operating since the 1980s in search of Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs). Right
