  • Planetary nebulae as the key to understanding binary stellar
    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

  • 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

  • Development and fabrication of the NGI (Ninety-GigaHertz Instrument) for the Teide Observator
    The objective of this initiative is the construction of a W-band (80-110 GHz) receiver fitted with 3,000 kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) to be installed at the second telescope of QUIJOTE at the Teide Observatory. This instrument would allow to cover the only frequency band that can be observed from Earth and isnt currently already covered at

  • Control hardware for handling and testing astronomical detector
    LISA (Laboratory of Imaging and Sensors for Astronomy) is an IAC infrastructure for the characterization, integration and realization of developments related to sensors and cameras for use in telescopes. LISA is conceived as a sub-service with its own entity within the common service that constitutes the Department of Electronics, in turn one of
