Description
With the aim of characterizing the atmospheric Na layer, the Teide Observatory facilities have been used in the last years to carry out a long term monitoring experiment on LGS generation by low power laser excitation. The LGSs are generated by a Rodamine 6G Dye tunable laser launched from the Optical Ground Station with a typical output power of 400 — 500 mW. The LGS images are obtained in a bistatic configuration with a baseline of 165 m. The experiment has been improved in several aspects in order to boost the Na photon flux return. The natrium-Teide experiment has generated a dataset of more than 400 images of Na LGS traces obtained in 37 nights. The main results are going to be been published soon.

    Tales of stellar & binary co-evolution, told by stellar oscillations
    Stellar binarity and stellar oscillations are mostly seen and studied as two separate phenomena. Sometimes, one process is even complicating the analysis of the other beyond the liking of one or the other research community. However, the complete picture painted by the physical constraints provided by the combination of both processes represents a

    Convection, rotation, and magnetic activity of solar-like stars from asteroseismology
    During the last decade, our understanding of stellar physics and evolution has undergone a tremendous revolution thanks to asteroseismology. Space missions such as CoRoT, Kepler, K2, and TESS have already been observing millions of stars providing high-precision photometric data. With these data, it is possible to study the convection of stars
