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

Participation of IAC in the AMS experiment
AMS-02 (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer) is a multi-purpose particle physics detector that was deployed in the International Space Station (ISS) on May 19, 2011. The experiment was designed to measure the flux of cosmic rays with unprecedented precision, which allows to study the origin and propagation of cosmic rays in the Milky Way. The main

Mapping dark sectors at the cross-roads of Astrophysics, Cosmology and Particle Physics
The elusive nature of dark matter (DM), which constitutes roughly 80% of the universe's matter, is a major challenge in modern physics. Theoretical models suggest that dark matter could be composed of light (sub-GeV) particles that interact weakly with the Standard Model of particle physics. The DarkMaps proposal focuses on exploring the

The whole sun project: untangling the complex physical mechanisms behind our eruptive star and its twins: "Whole sun"
The Sun is a magnetically active star with violent eruptions that can hit Earth´s magnetosphere and cause important perturbations in our technology-dependent society. The objective of the Whole Sun project is to tackle in a coherent way for the first time key questions in Solar Physics that involve as a whole the solar interior and atmosphere.

Juan de la Cierva 2020 Incorporation Eugenia Martínez Vázquez
The objective of the Juan de la Cierva-incorporation grants is to promote the hiring of people with a doctorate degree by research organizations or Centros de I+D españoles for a period of three years in order to strengthen the skills acquired during a first stage of postdoctoral training. The aid, whose annual amount is 30,500 euros, is used to co
