The "Roads, Mobility, Innovation and Culture Area" belonging to the Island Council of Tenerife has financed the hiring of IACTEC researchers in the "Space" (Microsatellites, Remote Sensing, Optical Communications), "Advanced Manufacturing of Optical Systems" and " Medical Technology" through the "IACTEC Technological Training" project. The annual

The collaboration Estallidos has been working together for more than two decades. In the present edition, we have organised the research work into five Objectives which are described in the common MEMORIA presented by the coordination node (CIEMAT). The tasks proposed by the various nodes are closely intertwined. They are organised according to our

This proposal focuses on the analysis of galaxy formation and evolution by use of spectroscopic data from the large datasets currently available. The project aims at developing cutting-edge techniques to extract information from galaxy spectra, with the aim of understanding the complex ("baryon") physics that transforms gas into stars, creating the

The European Southern Observatory (ESO) is building a segmented and adaptive telescope with a 39-metre primary mirror, the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). It will significantly improve our knowledge in most branches of Astrophysics and, therefore, it is widely supported by the scientific community. The ELT programme represents a major opportunity

The ultimate nature of dark matter remains a mystery despite making up 25% of the Universe. We have found a novel way to see the distribution of dark matter more accurately than any other luminous indicator used to date: the diffuse light in clusters of galaxies, the intracluster light (ICL). In this project: PICLE-DM: Pioneering the ICL Experiment

CosmoLAB is a project of the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands in collaboration with the Cabildo of Tenerife. Its main aim is to encourage the educational community of the island to identify the scientific culture, the sky of the Canary Islands and its observatories as part of its own natural and cultural heritage. Within the
