  • Project
    Nuclear Activity in Galaxies: a 3D Perspective from the Nucleus to the Outskirts
    This project consists of two main research lines. First, the study of quasar-driven outflows in luminous and nearby obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) and...
  • Project
    Nucleosynthesis and molecular processes in the late stages of Stellar Evolution
    Low- to intermediate-mass (M < 8 solar masses, Ms) stars represent the majority of stars in the Cosmos. They finish their lives on the Asymptotic Giant Branch...
  • Project
    Numerical Astrophysics: Galaxy Formation and Evolution
    How galaxies formed and evolved through cosmic time is one of the key questions of modern astronomy and astrophysics. Cosmological time- and length-scales are...
  • Project
    Numerical Simulation of Astrophysical Processes
    Numerical simulation through complex computer codes has been a fundamental tool in physics and technology research for decades. The rapid growth of computing...
  • Project
    Observational Tests of the Processes of Nucleosynthesis in the Universe
    Several spectroscopic analyses of stars with planets have recently been carried out. One of the most remarkable results is that planet-harbouring stars are on...
  • Project
    Particle Astrophysics
    The members of the Particle Astrophysics Group of the IAC participate actively in three large international collaborations of high-energy astrophysics: AMS-02...
  • Project
    Physical properties and evolution of Massive Stars
    This project aims at the searching, observation and analysis of massive stars in nearby galaxies to provide a solid empirical ground to understand their...
  • Project
    Physics of Ionized Nebulae
    The research that is being carried out by the group can be condensed into two main lines: 1) Study of the structure, dynamics, physical conditions and chemical...
  • Project
    PI2FA - Partial Ionisation: Two-Fluid Approach
    Pi2FA aims at the development of new methods for investigating the magnetism in the outer layers of the solar atmosphere, the chromosphere. The objective is to...
