From science to industry, technology transference with CubeSats
The Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) has as main objective to promote and carry out all types of research in astrophysics and its related fields. This...
In this review I address some of the global properties of galaxies which show nuclear activity, or central starbursts. Confining my attention to the inner...
From the ground to space: an infrared view of active galactic nuclei
In the past 10-15 years our view of the circumnuclear material of active galactic nuclei (AGN) has completely changed thanks to the combination of new...
Of the mechanisms proposed to bring gaseous fuel into the central starburst regions of a galaxy, non-axisymmetries in the gravitational potential set up by...
There is considerable evidence that the circumnuclear regions of galaxies are intimately related to their host galaxies, most directly through their bars. There...
The question of how a starburst is fuelled is closely related to some of the main outstanding problems in our understanding of starbursts, namely which...
