General
Los campos magnéticos son uno de los ingredientes fundamentales en la formación de estrellas y su evolución. En el nacimiento de una estrella, los campos magnéticos llegan a frenar su rotación durante el colapso de la nube molecular, y en el fin de la vida de una estrella, el magnetismo puede ser clave en la forma en la que se pierden las capas externas de forma dramática. En la vida adulta, el magnetismo da lugar a la actividad de las estrellas. Nuestro Sol tiene campos magnéticos que dan lugar a una actividad tan espectacular que es capaz de tener un impacto en la Tierra. Pero en otras estrellas, la actividad magnética es, en algunos casos, órdenes de magnitud más intensa que la solar, influenciando drásticamente el transporte de especies químicas y de momento angular, así como afectando posibles sistemas planetarios alrededor de éstas.
La finalidad de este Proyecto es estudiar diversas manifestaciones del campo magnético que se pueden observar en la atmosfera solar y en otras estrellas. Estas incluyen estructuras tan diversas como las manchas solares, los campos débiles presentes en el sol en calma o estructuras cromosféricas y coronales como los filamentos y las protuberancias. Así, se han ido abordando gradualmente los siguientes temas de investigación:

Resultados
- Ondas espirales en manchas solares: Se han interpretado como ondas magnetoacústicas que se propagan desde el interior hasta capas atmosféricas siguiendo la dirección del campo magnético. Se ha caracterizado la topología del campo magnético de la mancha, descartando que la forma espiral sea consecuencia del retorcimiento de las líneas de campo (Felipe et al. 2019).
- Respuesta magnética a umbral flashes: Observaciones espectropolarimétricas simultáneas de las líneas cromosféricas He I 10830 y Ca II 8542 fueron usadas para estimar las fluctuaciones del campo magnético asociado a ondas de choque. Los choques provocan la expansión de las líneas de campo (Houston et al. 2018, incluye a A. Asensio Ramos).

Bayesian evidence for two slow-wave damping models in hot coronal loopsWe computed the evidence in favour of two models, one based on field-aligned thermal conduction alone and another that includes thermal misbalance as well, to explain the damping of slow magneto-acoustic waves in hot coronal loops. Our analysis is based on the computation of the marginal likelihood and the Bayes factor for the two damping modelsArregui, I. et al.

Transverse oscillations and an energy source in a strongly magnetized sunspotThe solar corona is two to three orders of magnitude hotter than the underlying photosphere, and the energy loss of coronal plasma is extremely strong, requiring a heating flux of over 1,000 W m −2 to maintain its high temperature.
