  • Cosmic microwave background: Quijote experiment
    The IAC cosmology group leads the QUIJOTE experiment, which is a unique project in the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background, consisting of two telescopes and three instruments. The aim of the present action is the improvement and acquisition of equipment associated with the MFI (Multi-Frequency Instrument) instrument and the microwave

  • Towards the understanding of the late stages of stellar evolution and the formation of complex organic molecules
    Most of the stars (M < 8 solar masses, Ms) end their lives with a phase of strong mass loss on the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB), just before they form planetary nebulae (PNe). The strong mass loss efficiently enriches the interstellar medium (ISM) with gas and dust; AGB stars are one of the main contributors to the enrichment of the ISM where new

  • Solar magnetometry in the era of big telescopes
    Solar activity is produced by a variety of complex interactions between its ionized plasma and the powerful magnetic field that it creates. Studying it is important both for purely scientific as well as practical reasons. The Sun is the only star whose surface we can resolve in detail, we can even measure its magnetic field in a more or less

  • Spectropolarimetry: a window on stellar magnetism
    Magnetic fields are primary drivers of stellar formation and have profound implications on stellar evolution (on the transport of chemical species and angular momentum), as well as on the formation of planetary systems around the hosting star. Yet, stellar magnetic fields are often overlooked since they are elusive, difficult to detect, and

  • RADIOFOREGROUNDS: Ultimate modelling of Radio foregrounds: a key ingredient for cosmology
    The aim of this project is to combine two unique datasets, the nine Planck all-sky (30-857 GHz) maps and the four QUIJOTE Northern sky (10-20 GHz) maps, to provide the best possible characterization of the physical properties of polarized emissions in the microwave domain, together with an unprecedentedly thorough description of the intensity

  • SUNRISE. The first sources in the universe
    The ALBA Network: The first Lights of the Universe, intends to detect the first sources to appear in the Universe. The ALBA collaboration started from a sub-group of researchers from the Consolider-Ingenio2010 project (CSD2006-00070): First science with the GTC, whose principal Investigator was the PI of this Red Temática. The ALBA collaboration
