The study, focusing on the planetary nature of thirteen objects of interest from the TESS mission, confirms the existence of five new planets around red dwarf or M-type stars, which are smaller and cooler than our Sun.

The planets lie within or very near the "Neptunian desert," a region noted for the scarcity of planets with characteristics similar to those of Neptune.

The IAA-CSIC participates in this study that shows how the activity of a supermassive black hole hidden in the heart of a quasar has transformed the chemical composition of the gas in the galaxy.

The grant, 1.5 million euros over the next five years, will help to understand the properties of subneptune-type planets.

Thanks to the overflight, it has been possible to evaluate the performance and functionality of the instrument, in whose design the IAA-CSIC has participated.

A new international study involving the IAA-CSIC identifies a plasma bubble as the origin of the persistent emission observed in some fast radio bursts (FRBs)

The data also allow researchers to determine the nature of the "engine" that powers these mysterious sources

The results are published today in Nature

The study, which analyzes the geology and origin of this binary asteroid system close to Earth, concludes that the surface of Didymos is between 40 and 130 times older than its satellite Dimorphos

The work has been published in five articles in Nature Communications and the IAA-CSIC participates in one of them

CAVITY is the name of this international initiative whose objective is to monitor up to 400 galaxies in the future to learn about their formation and evolution

This mission has a strong participation of the Solar Physics Group of the IAA.

The James Webb Space Telescope observes star clusters in a galaxy just 460 million years after the Big Bang.

The Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA-CSIC) and the Instituto de Física de Cantabria (IFCA-CSIC-UC) are participating in this discovery.

The IAA has been endowed by the CSIC with nearly one hundred thousand euros to strengthen the capacities of the scientific community that will use SKAO through the Spanish SKA Regional Centre.

"CSIC4SKA", led by the IAA-CSIC, was one of five projects funded under the CSIC Programme for Large European Research Infrastructures.
