  • Control hardware for handling and testing astronomical detector
    LISA (Laboratory of Imaging and Sensors for Astronomy) is an IAC infrastructure for the characterization, integration and realization of developments related to sensors and cameras for use in telescopes. LISA is conceived as a sub-service with its own entity within the common service that constitutes the Department of Electronics, in turn one of

  • Bench for measuring optical surfaces with complex topology
    In recent years, the IAC has developed a project that provides the infrastructure, equipment and human resources necessary for the manufacture of mirrors up to 1.5 meters in diameter for scientific and, in particular, astronomical use. These capabilities allow addressing all stages of the production process of optical surfaces: generation

  • Development and fabrication of the NGI (Ninety-GigaHertz Instrument) for the Teide Observator
    The objective of this initiative is the construction of a W-band (80-110 GHz) receiver fitted with 3,000 kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) to be installed at the second telescope of QUIJOTE at the Teide Observatory. This instrument would allow to cover the only frequency band that can be observed from Earth and isnt currently already covered at

  • The whole sun project: untangling the complex physical mechanisms behind our eruptive star and its twins: "Whole sun"
    The Sun is a magnetically active star with violent eruptions that can hit Earth´s magnetosphere and cause important perturbations in our technology-dependent society. The objective of the Whole Sun project is to tackle in a coherent way for the first time key questions in Solar Physics that involve as a whole the solar interior and atmosphere.

  • Big problems for small bodies: DISrupting COmetary BOdies and asteroids using Large Objects
    Planetesimals are, by number, the overwhelming component of the proto-planetary disks that surround young stars. Besides their fundamental role as the building blocks of planets they are, as well, expected to play other, no minor, tasks: i) when delivered from beyond the ice-line and impacting in rocky planet surfaces could fill them with their
