  • 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

  • 4MSTS ICTS2022: Implementation of actions to improve OCAN
    The goal of this agreement focuses on the site design and other complementary studies, required to finalize the Cherenkov Telescope Array Northern Observatory in its final configuration. For this purpose, the set of Medium Size Telescopes (MST) must be enhanced from the original set of 5 corresponding to the threshold configuration, to a set of 9

  • Small-ELF: a propotype for the future 40-50m ExoLife Finder (ELF) hybrid optical telescope
    The objective of this proposal is to apply for funding to complete the construction and implementation of a 3.5 m prototype, dubbed Small-ELF, at Teide Observatory by 2025 as a demonstrator for the future ExoLife Finder (ELF), whose the scientific objective is the detection of biomarkers in the atmospheres of extrasolar planets. The technological

  • Hydrated minerals and organic compounds in primitive asteroids
    This project aims to continue our research on small bodies of the Solar System that started with two projects funded in previous calls: Science with OSIRIS-REx, led by J. Licandro(AYA201567772-R) and Primitive Asteroids Spectroscopic Study: Exploitation of data from Gaia and JWST led by J. de Léon (AYA2017-89090-P). The broad scientific objective

  • Evolution of galaxies: fundamental parameters
    Galaxy evolution is one of the hot topics in Astrophysics that have shown tangible progress in the last years. This has been mostly due to advent of large telescopes, both ground based and in space, with state-of-the-art instruments, equipped with high sensitive detectors. They have made possible acquiring the deepest surveys in different

  • The Multiple Early Channels of EvolutioN of mAssive Stars
    Massive stars are those with more than ~8 solar masses, the limit above which stars may undergo a core collapse supernova (SN) explosion at the end of its life. They have played a critical role in how the Universe has evolved and to understand this role we need to know the physics ruling them and the evolutionary paths they follow. In the last
