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

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

EST se construirá en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, y será el mayor telescopio solar europeo. Dispondrá de un espejo primario de 4 metros y de la más moderna tecnología, lo que proporcionará a los astrónomos una herramienta única para observar y entender el sol y cómo éste determina las condiciones meteorológicas del espacio. EST es

The IAC Cosmologic Team leads the QUIJOTE (Q-U-I Joint Tenerife) and TMS (Tenerife Microwave Spectrometer) experiments, takes part in several Cosmic Microwave Background observing projects currently in development at the Teide Observatory (GroundBird, LSPE-STRIP), and contribute also in the planification and coordination of future European projects

Accreting black-holes and neutron stars in X-ray binaries provide an ideal laboratory for exploring the physics of compact objects, yielding not only confirmation of the existence of stellar-mass black holes via dynamical mass measurements, but also the best opportunity for probing high-gravity environments and the physics of accretion; the most

The objective is to promote the consolidation of the professional careers of national and foreign researchers, so that they can develop their professional careers within SECTI. Promoting the consolidation of the professional career of research personnel, encouraging the creation of permanent positions in the affiliated institutions and facilitating
