One of the main questions in Astrophysics is whether there are other Earths in the Galaxy. Our project is observational and technically prepared to address this question and lead to a significant progress on our understanding of the physical properties of planets, brown dwarfs, and stars, their formation mechanisms and evolution. We will conduct

Active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback is the effect that nuclear activity produces in the interstellar and circumgalactic medium (ISM and CGM) of galaxies. Different modes of AGN feedback, which can be broadly divided into radiative/quasar and kinetic/radio, are now considered key processes in the evolution of massive galaxies by regulating black

Per the classical, textbook definition, planetary nebulae are the glowing shells of gas and dust expelled by single, Sun-like stars at the end of their lives as they evolve towards the white dwarf phase. However, there is growing evidence that a significant fraction, perhaps even a majority, of planetary nebulae are the result of binary

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

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
