Description
The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is one of the main pillars of modern Cosmology. Soon after its discovery in 1965, it was recognized as evidence of cosmic evolution, and that our Universe went, at some time in the past, through a very hot phase where matter and radiation were in very intense interaction. Here, I briefly review the history of the CMB research, since its discovery until the very recent results, focusing on the implications for our understanding of cosmology. Finally, I outline some of the important results that are expected to come from CMB research in the next decade.

    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

    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

    The Multimodal Universe: 100 TB of Machine Learning Ready Astronomical Data
    We present the Multimodal Universe, a new framework collating over 100 TB of multimodal astronomical data for its first release, spanning images, spectra, time series, tabular and hyper-spectral data. This unified collection enables a wide variety of machine learning (ML) applications and research across astronomical domains. The dataset brings
