  • Formation and evolution of planets and brown dwarfs
    One of the main questions in Astrophysics is whether there are other Earths in the Galaxy. Our project is observational and technically prepared to address this question and lead to a significant progress on our understanding of the physical properties of planets, brown dwarfs, and stars, their formation mechanisms and evolution. We will conduct

  • Build-up of galaxy clusters in formation through dust obscured star formation
    The overall goal of the research project BURST is to understand 1) the built-up of galaxy clusters in the universe and 2) the importance of dust obscured star formation in such systems. To accomplish these goals, we have and will assemble a vast data set spanning a wide range of frequencies from the optical/near-infrared to the radio including

  • IAC contribution to PRIMA and multiwavelength scientific exploitation
    In the last two decades, Spain has built up and consolidated a strong infrared community that has successfully contributed to the construction and scientific exploitation of basically all European space instruments in this energy range. The IAC has contributed to the construction of infrared instruments for the space telescopes ISO (ISOPHOT-S) and

  • Participation of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias in the development of HARMONI: Fase Delta-D1
    The High Angular Resolution Monolithic Optical and Near-infrared Integral field spectrograph (HARMONI) is the first light instrument for the ELT, therefore, available as soon as the telescope enters into operations. The University of Oxford leads the international consortium developing HARMONI, also comprised the Astronomy Technology (UKATC

  • Mapping dark sectors at the cross-roads of Astrophysics, Cosmology and Particle Physics
    The elusive nature of dark matter (DM), which constitutes roughly 80% of the universe's matter, is a major challenge in modern physics. Theoretical models suggest that dark matter could be composed of light (sub-GeV) particles that interact weakly with the Standard Model of particle physics. The DarkMaps proposal focuses on exploring the

  • Getting Ready for the Adaptive Optics of EST
    The overall objective of this proposal is to support the continuation of the Multi Conjugated Adaptive Optics (MCAO) demonstrator for the European Solar Telescope (EST). EST will be the largest solar telescope in Europe. It will include a 4-meter diameter primary mirror and the most advanced technologies, providing astronomers with a unique tool to
