  • Support to the IAC development of the pre-optics (IPO) and the Control Electronics (ICE) for HARMONI (IPOICE)
    This funding aims t o strengthen the IAC participation in the HARMONI instrument for the ELT by developing prototypes and functional models for the control electronic (ICE) and for mechanisms of the pre-optics (IPO) whilst improving the IAC capacities for testing IR instrumentation for large telescopes. The European Southern Observatory (ESO) is

  • 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

  • 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
