  • Unravelling the dark universe from the Canary Island observatories - UNDARK
    Astrophysical and cosmological observations imply that only 5% of the energy of the Universe is made of conventional matter. The rest is composed by a new type of matter, the so-called dark matter, which has no (or extremely weak) interactions with the known particles, and a yet more puzzling repulsive form of energy accelerating the universe's

  • A pilot survey to unveil dormant black holes
    Black holes (BHs) are the pinnacle of extreme gravity. They are responsible for the most violent phenomena observed in the Universe, from long gamma-ray bursts, tidal disruption events to gravitational waves (GW). Despite the recent growth in extragalactic BH discoveries by LIGO-VIRGO, our knowledge of the seed BH population is severely hindered by

  • Key aspects of star formation in a cosmological context.
    ESTALLIDOS includes experts in observational astrophysics, numerical simulations, theoretical modeling, and instrumentation. Working together on "star formation" for more than 20 years, we have played a leading role in the development of the field (> 1000 papers, > 30 PhD Theses). Our strength lies in the complementarity among the different

  • Polarimetric inference of magnetic fields
    The magnetic field is the main driver of the spectacular activity of the solar atmosphere, which covers the photosphere, chromosphere, transition region, and corona. This is true also for many other stars, although it is in the Suns atmosphere where we can observe the consequences of the interaction between an astrophysical plasma and its magnetic
