The magnetic field is the main driver of the spectacular activity of the solar atmosphere, which covers the photosphere, chromosphere, transition region, and corona. This is true also for many other stars, although it is in the Suns atmosphere where we can observe the consequences of the interaction between an astrophysical plasma and its magnetic

The TANNHAUSER project is a public-private collaboration initiative in which the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) participates as a collaborating partner. Its main objective is to develop and integrate an advanced optical communications system into the Nasmyth platform of the Two-meter Twin Telescope (TTT), located at the Teide

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

The purpose of the aid is to train doctors through the financing of employment contracts, under the form of a predoctoral contract, so that the predoctoral research staff in training can carry out a doctoral thesis associated with a research project financed by the aid for R&D projects of the State Subprogram for Knowledge Generation within the

WEAVE-ECOS is an unoriented research project that integrates two senior researchers and their team in order to efficiently exploit the first science data from the new WEAVE spectrograph, which is in the commissioning phase at the William Herschel telescope (WHT), in La Palma (Canary Islands). This multidisciplinary project has been designed to

The project focuses on the study of the effect of the internal structure of temperature and density in ionized nebulae on the determination of their chemical composition. The main objective is to carry out different independent verifications and analyze in depth the repercussions of our recent work published in Nature (Méndez-Delgado et al. 2023)
