The team led by Claudia Gutiérrez from the ICE-CSIC and IEEC has used the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) and the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT), at the Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory, of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), in La Palma. The CSS161010 burst reached its maximum brightness in just 4 days in a small galaxy 500 million light-years away from us. An international scientific team, led by the Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia (IEEC) and the Institute of Space Sciences (ICE-CSIC), has managed to detect an exceptionally fast and bright cosmic burst in a small
Research led by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) has used an innovative technique based on artificial intelligence to study how stars form in galaxies. By analysing 10 000 nearby galaxies, the team have discovered that most stars are born within their own galaxy. Galactic mergers, while important, are not the main source of new stars. Furthermore, the study reveals that more massive galaxies are more affected by these mergers. These results, published in Nature Astronomy, provide new clues about the complex history of galaxies and their evolution over time. Most galaxies do not
El programa Investigadores Visitantes Fundación Occident del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) sigue su curso con la recepción de un nuevo grupo de personal investigador procedente de distintos centros del mundo. Los investigadores cubrirán un amplio espectro de disciplinas, desde cosmología y astrofísica de partículas hasta física estelar, formación de galaxias y sistemas planetarios. Su presencia y colaboración con el personal investigador del IAC fortalecerá la actividad científica tanto del centro canario como de las personas invitadas y de sus centros de origen, fortaleciendo
