  • Scientific analysis of ultra-deep astronomical images
    One of the projects with the greatest impact currently being developed by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias is the state-of-the-art analysis of optical astronomical images and, in particular, the study of objects with ultra-faint surface brightness. We have already made a number of scientific discoveries that have been made possible, not

  • TEIDESAT - TEchincal INvestigation and DEVelopment to SATellites
    Since its origin in December 2017, the TEIDESAT project was founded and is formed and led by a team of students, initially from the University of La Laguna and, later, also from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and other universities, whose objective is to develop its own space mission. In particular, the goal is to design, manufacture

  • 2D spectroscopy of planetary nebulae with high abundance discrepancies
    The discrepancy between chemical abundances calculated from optical recombination lines (RLs) and collisional excitation lines (CELs) is an important unsolved problem in nebular astrophysics. In planetary nebulae (PNe) there is increasing evidence that the discrepancy is due to the presence of two gas phases: a hot component with standard

  • Feasibility and conceptual study of the thermometers read-out chain and thermal control of the MHFT European telescopes of LiteBIRD.
    The main scientific goal of this project is the design of the read-out and thermal control system for the medium and high frequency telescopes (MHFT) of LiteBIRD, a JAXA-led space mission, currently in phase A, with launch expected for 2029. LiteBIRD will scan the sky from the second Lagrange point for 3 years, with the goal to produce an extremely

  • NanoFull: Fullerene- and graphene-based molecular nanostructures in circumstellar envelopes
    NanoFull is an ambitious interdisciplinary project to: i) understand the process of formation process of fullerene- and graphene-based molecular nanostructures in circumstellar envelopes through the decomposition of "natural" nanoparticles with aromatic and aliphatic composition; ii) detect other forms of carbon in space. Surprisingly, detections
