From 3 to 23 November, researchers from the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) will bring astronomy to the public in the form of multiple activities, workshops and talks on the islands of Tenerife and Gran Canaria.
El Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) se une a las Semanas de la Ciencia y la Innovación de Canarias, una actividad organizada por la Agencia Canaria de Investigación, Innovación y Sociedad de la Información (ACIISI) del Gobierno de Canarias. El programa de actos se lleva celebrando desde el pasado 6 de noviembre y finaliza el próximo domingo 17.
An international team of researchers, including researchers from the IAC, have studied in detail a remarkable couple of dwarf galaxies “dancing with each other” inside an unpopulated area of the Universe. This uncommon pair of low-mass galaxies merging “in the middle of nowhere”, near the center of a cosmic void, offers a unique view of one-on-one interactions and of the evolution of galaxies located in very low density environments. Researchers from the Calar Alto Void Integral-field Treasury surveY (CAVITY) project, led by the University of Granada, have discovered a rare and ongoing
The Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) is positioning itself as one of the main partners of the Government of the Canary Islands in the Canary Islands Aerospace Strategy, presented this Wednesday by President Fernando Clavijo. The goal is to position the archipelago as a key player in a rapidly growing sector, promoting innovation, technology transfer, and the creation of high value-added jobs.
