  • Starbursts throughout the history of the Universe
    The collaboration Estallidos has been working together for more than two decades. In the present edition, we have organised the research work into five Objectives which are described in the common MEMORIA presented by the coordination node (CIEMAT). The tasks proposed by the various nodes are closely intertwined. They are organised according to our

  • Brown dwarfs as exoplanet analogues
    Although thousands of brown dwarfs and extrasolar planets have been discovered up to date, their formation and evolution models remains unknown. Hence, it is necessary to identify these objects in a wider range of effective temperature, gravity and metallicity to understand them. The main scientific objective of our project is to identify and

  • Participation of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias in the development of the HARMONI instrument for the Extremely Large Telescope: Phase-D1
    The European Southern Observatory (ESO) is building a segmented and adaptive telescope with a 39-metre primary mirror, the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). It will significantly improve our knowledge in most branches of Astrophysics and, therefore, it is widely supported by the scientific community. The ELT programme represents a major opportunity

  • Cryogenic technologies for large instruments
    The dimensions of the instruments in design for the next generation of large telescopes exceed the capacities of the cryogenic and vacuum infrastructures available at the IAC. Cryogenic instrumentation requires a large number of tests to verify its mechanisms and components, as well as of the whole instrument once assembled. These verification

  • Mineralogical characterization of asteroids and space exploration 2
    This project is a continuation of the CAMINA project (ProID2017010112). The science objective is the compositional characterization of asteroids, that we have been doing by means of three actions: (1) our participation in the two space missions that have visited and taken a sample of material from two near-Earth asteroids (NEAs), OSIRIS-REx (NASA)

  • SHARKS: In-depth study of the formation and evolution of distant galaxies
    SHARKS (Southern H-ATLAS Regions Ks-band Survey; IP: Helmut Dannerbauer) is a deep near-infrared survey of a 300-square-degree region of the sky being carried out with the VISTA telescope and its VIRCAM instrument at ESO (European Southern Observatory in Chile) in the Ks-band (at 2 micrometer). With SHARKS we expect to detect about 20-30 million
