El pasado 24 de enero tuvo lugar la puesta en órbita de DRAGO ( Demonstrator for Remote Analysis of Ground Observations), el primer instrumento desarrollado por...
dSph-like MW Satellites from Massive Dark Matter Free Progenitors
We study the evolution of initially spherical satellites of a galaxy that resembles the Milky Way using N-Body simulations. The initial satellites come from a...
Dual infrared camera for near and mid infrared observations
We present the dual IR camera CID for the 2.12 m telescope of the Observatorio Astronomico Nacional de Mexico, IA-UNAM. The system consists of two separate...
The determination of the extinction in different directions in the Galaxy and in external galaxies is of paramount importance in several fields of astrophysics...
Dust and molecules in extra-galactic planetary nebulae
Extra-galactic planetary nebulae (PNe) permit the study of dust and molecules in metallicity environments other than the Galaxy. Their known distances lower the...
Dust distribution in HII regions in nearby galaxies from optical and IR studies .
We report on our ongoing project "Statistical studies of HII regions in the nearby extragalaxies". In EWASS 2014 we presented the overview of our detailed study...
A three-dimensional model of the dust distribution in the Milky Way is presented based on FIR observations made by the COBE satellite. This model is a further...
