SUrvey Network for Deep Imaging Analysis and Learning (SUNDIAL)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2017, Date de fin: 31 mars 2021,

Though Big Data has become common in many domains nowadays, the challenges to develop efficient and automated mining of the ever increasing data sets by new generations of data scientists are eminent. These challenges span wide swathes of society, business and research. Astronomers with their high-tech observatories are historically at the forefront of this field, but obviously, the impact in e.g ...

Date du début: 1 janv. 2016, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,

Understanding the Physics of Inflation is one of the key questions in present-day fundamental cosmology. For this purpose, the study of the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies provide a unique probe to the early Universe. However, it is well-known that foreground signals, and in particular emission from our Galaxy, will be the major limiting factor of the possible c ...

Feeding and hiding the monster: triggering and obscuring the central engine of active galaxies (FEEDING & HIDING AGN)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 21 avr. 2016,

Some of the most important open questions in astrophysics concern how and when active galactic nuclei (AGN) are triggered, and how important they are in the evolution of galaxies.In order to understand these processes and interpret the results found for AGN at cosmological distances, it is fundamental to account for the structure of their central engines in the local universe. This includes the un ...

The three-dimensional Magnetic Structure of solar Filaments and Prominences (MASFIPRO)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,

Solar filaments are prominent cold and dense structures of plasma suspended in the hot corona. They are called prominences when observed above the solar limb. Despite they were probably the first solar features to be observed, the magnetic structure of solar filaments is still largely unknown, being their determination a fundamental problem for Solar Physics. The reason is the lack of chromospheri ...

Determining the system parameters of low mass X-ray binaries (X-ray binaries)

Date du début: 16 mars 2009, Date de fin: 15 mars 2012,

Low mass X-ray binaries are two gravitationally bound stars where the secondary is a normal solar type like star and the primary a compact object, i.e. a black hole or neutron star. Matter is transferred from the secondary, thereby forming an accretion disk around the compact object that gives rise to the X-rays. These systems are excellent laboratories to test several theories, including stellar ...
