El Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) lanza una nueva publicación electrónica sobre ciencia con la subvención del Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología

Advertised on

Nace “Caosyciencia”, una publicación electrónica sobre Astronomía y demás saberes relacionados que pretende comunicar la ciencia de forma sencilla y variada, con artículos, reportajes, fotografías, entrevistas, vídeos, animaciones y otros.

Su objetivo es llegar a un amplio sector de la sociedad utilizando un registro lingüístico accesible para un público que no necesariamente tiene un conocimiento detallado de la terminología científica, así como impulsar el intercambio del conocimiento.

“Caosyciencia” es un conglomerado de imágenes, textos, ideas y sonidos que interactúan de forma “caótica” para intentar explicar la ciencia desde el otro lado del muro, el no especializado. Pretende, con rigor y amenidad, estimular la imaginación y espera que ello se materialice en todo tipo de colaboraciones. Hay que aprender a jugar con la ciencia. Esta publicación, que se actualizará periódicamente por correo electrónico, está tutelada por el Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) y cofinanciada por el Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología.

    The puzzle of the galaxy with no dark matter

    International research led by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) and the University of La Laguna (ULL) has found the first evidence of a massive galaxy with no dark matter. The result is a challenge to the current standard model of cosmology. The study is published in the specialized journal Astronomy and Astrophysics. A team of scientists, led by the researcher at the IAC and the University of La Laguna (ULL) Sebastién Comerón, has found that the galaxy NGC 1277 does not contain dark matter.This is the first time that a massive galaxy (it has a mass several times that of the

    Discovered: the most distant barred spiral galaxy (until now)

    An international team of scientists, with participation by researchers at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) and the University of La Laguna (ULL) have found a barred spiral galaxy, similar to the Milky Way, in the early universe, when it was only 15% as old as it is now. The galaxy, ceers-2112, is the most distant barred spiral observed, and its existence poses a challege to the current model of formation and evolution of galaxies. The discovery, made with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is published in the journal Nature. In astrophysics studying the structure of galaxies
