The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is a NASA mission that started scientific operations in July 2018. Over two years it will cover the entire sky, searching for planetary transits in stars with magnitudes brighter than 14. Data covering the first 3 weeks of the mission were released in September 2018, and within days a super-earth

Rubin-LSST will provide an unprecedented combination of time coverage, 6-bands photometric depth and spatial extension for a variety of environments. In particular, crowded stellar fields (the Galactic Plane and Bulge, Galactic Globular Clusters, the Magellanic Clouds) will be of particular interest for a relevant part of the Community that

The search for and characterization of exoplanets are among the most active and rapidly advancing fields in modern astrophysics. The initial caution after the first bewildering discoveries has given way to a succession of discoveries with neck-breaking pace. To date, more than 4000 exoplanets have been detected, spanning wide ranges in physical

Sunspots are the most evident manifestations of solar magnetism, and oscillations are a fundamental physical process taking place in them. Despite the efforts over the last 50 years, a global picture of sunspot oscillations remains elusive. The goal of this project is to develop a thorough analysis of sunspot waves, from the solar interior to the

This project is proposed with two generic objectives. On the one hand, carry out the initial scientific exploitation of the EMIR and MIRADAS instruments through guaranteed time observation programs that have been prepared ahead of time. In both instruments, the scientific programs of the proposal are framed in the line of the structure and chemo
