The use of deep blank fields is crucial for the correct operation of the GTC. Hitherto, the list of deepest blank fields was the compilation by M. Azzaro for...
Deep CCD Photometry of Stars in the Globular Cluster M3
Preliminary results on new CCD photometry inV andB bands of approximately 5000 stars in four overlapping fields in the globular cluster M3 are presented. The...
Deep Gemini GMOS IFU Spectroscopy of BAL + IR + Fe II QSOsÂ
In this work we present the first results of a study of BAL QSOs (at low and high redshift), based on very deep Gemini GMOS integral field unit (IFU)...
Deep HST Imaging Favors the Bulgeless Edge-on Galaxy Explanation for the Hypothetical Stellar Wake Created by a Runaway Supermassive Black Hole
A long linear structure recently discovered could be the stellar wake produced by the passage of a runaway supermassive black hole (SMBH) or, alternatively, a...
We propose to obtain the most detailed and accurate star formation and chemical evolution histories of two nearby southern dwarf spheroidal galaxies, Fornax and...
Deep Learning for morphological classification of galaxies
Galaxies exhibit a wide variety of morphologies which are strongly related to their star formation histories. Having large samples of morphologically classified...
We present a deep multicolor NIR survey that we are currently undertaking at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (Spain). The aim of the survey is obtain...
