  • Participation of IAC in the AMS experiment
    The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a general purpose high energy particle detector that was deployed to the International Space Station (ISS) on May 19, 2011 to conduct a unique long duration mission of fundamental physics research from outer space. Among the physics objectives of AMS are a search for Dark Matter and Antimatter, the study of

  • Integral field spectroscopy of Local HII regions. Templates for the study of extragalactic HII regions
    The connection between the small-scale structure of the HII regions and their integrated spectrum is largely unknown and the main source of uncertainty in the determination of chemical abundances. We propose a project that attempts to alleviate this situation by obtaining and studying, for the first time, integral field spectra of an extensive

  • A pilot survey to unveil dormant black holes
    Black holes (BHs) are the pinnacle of extreme gravity. They are responsible for the most violent phenomena observed in the Universe, from long gamma-ray bursts, tidal disruption events to gravitational waves (GW). Despite the recent growth in extragalactic BH discoveries by LIGO-VIRGO, our knowledge of the seed BH population is severely hindered by

  • Big Data applications for Black hole Evolution Studies
    The BiD4BEST ITN will offer doctoral training in one of the most visible areas of astrophysical research, the formation of supermassive black holes in galaxies. A coordinated research training effort in this field is needed now to mobilise the community in Europe and prepare a core group of young scientists in anticipation of new observational data

  • Seismology and sTellar Rotation with TESS
    The last decade, the CoRoT and Kepler/K2 missions have showed the power of asteroseismology in order to determine the fundamental stellar parameters with a better precision than the classical methods. In 2018, NASA successfully launched the TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission that will continue the search of exoplanets and allow us

  • ATLAS Telescope at Teide Observatory
    This action aims to acquire the hardware and build an ATLAS unit at the Teide Observatory (OT) in order to integrate the OT and the IAC Solar System group in one of the most important surveys of NEOs. ATLAS is an early detection system for objects that can collide with the Earth, composed of a network of 50cm telescopes, at f / D = 2 and a wide
