Descripción
Mapping the low surface brightness (μ >28 mag arcsec^{-2}) structures of the galaxies opens the possibility of testing our current ΛCDM galaxy formation model. At these surface brightness values the accretion history of the galaxies should clearly reveal. We present here two undergoing projects conducted at the IAC whose aim is to explore the lowest surface brightness regions of nearby galaxies using ultra-deep imaging. The first one is the Stripe82 IAC Legacy Project, 270 square degrees based on the SDSS Stripe82 data reaching down to 28.5 mag arcsec^{-2}. The second is an overwhelmingly deep imaging of a nearby galaxy, UGC 00180, taken with the 10.4m GTC telescope and showing galaxy details down to 31.5 mag arcsec^{-2}.

    European Solar Telescope expected performance
    The European Solar Telescope (EST) will be the biggest solar telescope in Europe and it is currently concluding its preliminary design that includes adaptive optics from its first light. In this phase of the project, the feasibility of the project is demonstrated and the design must meet the requirements after having mitigated the major risks. The

    A multi-wavelength view of AGN feedback in the central kiloparsecs of quasar host galaxies
    Active galactic nuclei (AGN) winds and jets are potential drivers of multi-phase outflows and can significantly modify the interstellar medium (ISM) properties of their host galaxies. The Quasar Feedback (QSOFEED) project aims to investigate the impact of multi-phase quasar-driven outflows and jets on the nuclear regions of quasar host galaxies

    The Undiscovered Ultra Diffuse galaxies of the Local Group: predictions from constrained cosmological simulations
    Ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are attractive candidates to probe cosmological models and test theories of galaxy formation at low masses; however, they are difficult to detect because of their low surface brightness. In the Local Group a handful of UDGs have been found to date, most of which are satellites of the Milky Way and M31, and only two are
