LISA (Laboratory of Imaging and Sensors for Astronomy) is an IAC facility devoted to the characterization, integration, and manufacturing of developments related with sensors and cameras to use in telescopes. It started at the end 2007. Since then, it grows improving its performances to very different type of sensores, in the visible and in the

Ramón y Cajal Contract to develop his research work in the specific research project "The Formation of Black Holes"

Numerical simulations have established themselves as a third pillar of science, complementing theoretical modelling and laboratory experiments. Especially in areas of science such as cosmology and astrophysics, computer simulations of the formation and evolution of galaxies and larger structures in the Universe are the only experiment to verify

Ramón y Cajal contract to develop his research work in the specific research project "Numerical Simulations of Galaxy Formation and Evolution"

An sizable fraction of present-day astrophysics is based on physical models of stellar atmospheres, which allow us to interpret observations of planets, stars, nebulae and galaxies. Traditionally, these models adopt a series of simplifying assumptions, including Local Thermodynamical Equilibrium (LTE), implying that matter and radiation are in
