The Canary Islands (Spain) host two of the best considered astronomical observatories in the World, Teide Observatory (OT), on the island of Tenerife, and Roque de los Muchachos Observatory (ORM), on the island of La Palma. A crucial parameter to carry out astronomical observations in the infrared (IR) and microwave ($\mu$W) bands, is the content

The largest structures in the cosmic web probe the dynamical nature of dark energy through their integrated Sachs-Wolfe imprints. In the strength of the signal, typical cosmic voids have shown good consistency with expectation AISW = ΔTdata/ΔTtheory = 1, given the substantial cosmic variance. Discordantly, large-scale hills in the gravitational

We investigate the crossing-symmetry relation between b →c τ-ν ¯ decay and b c ¯→τ-ν ¯ scattering to derive direct correlations of new physics in semitauonic B -meson decays and the mono-tau signature at the LHC (p p →τhX +MET ). Using an exhaustive set of effective operators and heavy mediators we find that the current ATLAS and CMS data constrain

This paper investigates the mixed properties of MHD waves in a non-uniform plasma. It starts with a short revision of MHD waves in a uniform plasma of infinite extent. In that case the MHD waves do not have mixed properties. They can be separated in Alfvén waves and magneto-sonic waves. The Alfvén waves propagate parallel vorticity and are

We report the discovery of two transiting planets orbiting K2-290 (EPIC 249624646), a bright (V = 11.11) late F-type star residing in a triple-star system. It was observed during Campaign 15 of the K2 mission, and in order to confirm and characterize the system, follow-up spectroscopy and AO imaging were carried out using the FIES, HARPS, HARPS-N
