  • The evolution of galaxy clusters from cosmic dawn to noon
    Our overall aim is to understand the role of environment in regulating galaxy growth from the first overdensities at z~6, cosmic dawn, to the galaxy clusters forming at the epoch of peak star formation, z~2, cosmic noon. To accomplish this goal, we have and will assemble a vast data set spanning a wide range of frequencies from the UV to the radio

  • Seismology and sTellar Rotation with TESS
    The last decade, the CoRoT and Kepler/K2 missions have showed the power of asteroseismology in order to determine the fundamental stellar parameters with a better precision than the classical methods. In 2018, NASA successfully launched the TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission that will continue the search of exoplanets and allow us

  • LT2/NRT New Robotic Telescope
    The NRT (New Robotic Telescope) is a project to design and build a 4-meter telescope within five years, which from the ORM will operate in a totally autonomous and robotic way. This form of operation will make it the largest robotic telescope in the world and, together with the exceptional conditions for astronomical observation of the ORM, in the

  • Participation in the NISP instrument and preparation for the scientific exploitation of Euclid
    Esclarecer las propiedades de la materia y la energía oscura es uno de los problemas clave de la astrofísica actual. Este es el principal objetivo de la misión Euclid, considerada como el desafío más ambicioso de la astrofísica europea para los próximos años. Euclid realizará cartografiados tanto fotométricos como espectroscópicos que generarán los

  • Real and Virtual galaxies: galaxy formation through cosmic history
    One of the main challenges of modern astrophysics is to understand the mechanisms responsible for the formation of galaxies and for their properties, as we see them today. Galaxy evolution results both from dynamics of dark matter on large scales and from small scale processes like gas dynamics, cooling, star formation, stellar evolution and

  • IAC contribution to SPICA and multiwavelength scientific exploitation
    In the last two decades, Spain has built up a strong infrared community which have successfully contributed, at Co-I level, to the construction and to the scientific exploitation of basically all European InfraRed (IR) space instruments. The IAC has contributed to the construction of infrared instruments for the space telescopes ISO (ISOPHOT-S) and
