SUMMARY:Extreme gamma-ray pulsars (and what CTAO can say about them)
DESCRIPTION:At the dawn of the century only a handful of pulsars had been found to pulse in gamma-rays\, and certainly none was supposed to emit beyond the GeV scale. \nOver the past two decades\, thanks to the Fermi-LAT\, the situation has dramatically changed: we now know more than 300 such objects\, and the number keeps increasing. Behaving as lepton factories and natural particle accelerators\, the physics of gamma-ray pulsars still lacks a complete\, coherent description. As was first realized in early MAGIC observations of the Crab\, some of these objects elude the strong spectral cutoff imposed by their own gargantuan magnetic field and find a way to emit well beyond the tens of GeV\, into (and beyond!) the TeV scale. This makes these «extreme» pulsars targets for imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes and has prompted a progressive «migration» of the emission scenarios farther away from the neutron star. \nIn this talk I will briefly introduce some basic concepts of pulsar physics\, review current results and discuss present hot topics. Finally\, I will also show how the upcoming CTAO has the potential to spark a second-revolution in gamma pulsars\, its consequences stretching even beyond the usual boundary of astrophysics. \nFecha y lugar: 11/11/2025 – 12:30 | Sala de JuntasGiovanni CeribellaMax Planck for Physics (MPP) \n

SUMMARY:A SITELLE overview of interacting galaxies and supernova remnants
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this talk\, separated into three « chapters »\, is to present an overview of the capabilities of SITELLE\, a wide-field imaging Fourier transform spectrometer built by our team and attached to the Canada-France-Hawaii telescope. \nAfter a brief technical introduction to this instrument\, I will summarize the collaborative work started a few years ago between IAA\, Universidad de Granada and Université Laval on interacting galaxies (which is the main reason for my two-months sabbatical stay in Granada): Arp82\, Arp 143 and\, more recently\, a sample of Hickson compact groups (a project led by Salvador Duarte Puertas\, from UGR). The last chapter is dedicated to an ongoing work on supernova remnants\, both in the Milky Way (the Crab Nebula and Cassiopeia A)\, and then in nearby galaxies\, using data obtained as part of the SIGNALS survey. \nFecha y lugar: 13/11/2025 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosProf. Laurent DrissenUniversité Laval\, Québec \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:SO Colloquium: Galactic Centres and their high-energy multimessenger Phenomena
DESCRIPTION:Galactic Nuclei are the densest stellar systems in the Universe\, and they host massive black holes (MBHs). A host of energetic and unique phenomena\, –such as tidal disruption events\, hypervelocity stars and extreme mass ratio inspirals–\, arise from these outstanding features of galactic nuclei. \nIn this talk\, | I will present my group work on state-of-the-art dynamical calculations that link the rate and properties of these different phenomena and show how they can be used to investigate MBH environments at scales hardly accessible (or not yet accessible) by direct observations. \nFecha y lugar: 18/11/2025 – 13:00 | Salón de ActosElena RossiUniversity of Leiden\, The Netherlands \n

SUMMARY:SO Colloquium: Pre-CTAO Science with LST: Current and Expected Results
DESCRIPTION:The Large-Sized Telescope prototype (LST-1) is the first and the larger of a new generation of instruments that will form the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) in the island of La Palma (CTAO-North). CTAO is designed to explore; with unprecedented sensitivity\, angular resolution\, field of view\, and energy coverage; the Universe at very-high-energy gamma rays. Since beginning its observations\, LST-1 has been studying the northern sky in an energy range between about a few tens of GeV up to a few TeV. Thanks to its high sensitivity and its ability to quickly point toward flaring targets\, LST-1 is particularly well suited to detect and follow up on rapidly changing cosmic sources. \nIn this seminar\, I will present the first scientific results obtained with LST-1 as well as the expectations for the full LST northern array (involving an total of 4 LST telescopes in La Palma\, that will become the most sensitive instrument of its class along 2026) regarding new discoveries in the very-high-energy gamma-ray sky. \nFecha y lugar: 20/11/2025 – 13:00 | Salón de ActosProf. Pol BordasIEEC – ICC – Universitat de Barcelona \n

SUMMARY:First Glimpses of the Extragalactic Gamma-ray Sky with LST-1: Paving the Way to CTAO
DESCRIPTION:The gamma-ray extragalactic sky is dominated by blazars\, radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN) with relativistic jets that are closely aligned with our line of sight. In the MeV range\, the Fermi-LAT satellite has led the efforts in studying this violent type of sources\, with more than 3000 known blazars discovered so far in the MeV range. In the GeV-TeV range\, the Cherenkov experiments MAGIC\, HESS and VERITAS have made significant advances in the field. However\, their sensitivity has only allowed us to discover ~300 sources in the most extreme Universe after two decades of operations\, with only ~90 being AGN and blazars. \nThe Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) stems as the future of ground-based gamma-ray astronomy. Its improved capabilities promise to revolutionize the field in the near future. Its first telescope\, the Large-Sized Telescope prototype (LST-1)\, is already operating in La Palma (Spain) since 2018\, therefore being not only the future but also the present in the field. In this talk I will give an overview of some of the first scientific results on AGN and blazars obtained during LST-1’s first years of operation. The seminar will conclude with a discussion of future perspectives with the fully operating CTAO. \nFecha y lugar: 27/11/2025 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosJorge Otero-SantosINFN Sezione di Padova \n

SUMMARY:Mirar los cielos: el misterio de la Luna
DESCRIPTION:Desde hace milenios nuestra interpretación del universo ha estado moldeada por la superstición\, las creencias religiosas\, los intereses políticos\, económicos y sociales\, la filosofía y la ciencia. La investigación astronómica actual es herencia de ese crisol de maneras de pensar. En este sentido\, la luna ha jugado un papel protagonista. Por su cercanía\, su estudio sirvió para definir y cuestionar los principios de la naturaleza y del propio universo. \nEn esta conferencia veremos cómo sus múltiples facetas inspiraron algunas de las preguntas más profundas que nos hemos hecho relacionadas con la esencia misma del cosmos\, el lugar que el ser humano ocupa en él y hasta la existencia de vida extraterrestre. Veremos también cómo el arte dejó constancia de todo ello. \nEsta conferencia se hace dentro de una colaboración con el Ateneo de Granada. \nFecha:27/11/2025 – 19:00Conferenciante:  Monserrat Villar MartínFiliación: Centro de Astrobiología (INTA-CSIC) \n

SUMMARY:MeerKAT imaging of nearby galaxies
DESCRIPTION:Star formation is one of the dominant internal processes that drive galaxy evolution. We investigate the environmental effects on star formation activity in three nearby galaxy groups: NGC 6221\, NGC 3263 and NGC 2434. These groups were chosen to represent an evolutionary sequence ranging from the early stages to the late stages: from an interacting pair with tidal debris to a loose pre-processing group and finally to a more evolved system dominated by an elliptical galaxy. \nWe use a combination of high-resolution MeerKAT radio continuum data and WISE infrared observations to locate and measure the star formation rate in all group members. We use PAH emission as a tracer of gas heated by young stars to achieve this. In-band spectral index maps constrain the physical mechanisms driving the radio emission\, while SED fitting yields the ages and masses of a subset of the galaxies. \nDepending on the evolutionary stage of their group\, we find that galaxies occupy distinct regions of the WISE colour–colour diagram. All systems except ESO 059–G012 follow the radio–W3PAH correlation; the latter’s deviation may indicate that it has already exhausted its gas reservoir. The data also support the idea that the Vela Cloud originated from an interaction\, likely involving NGC 3263\, NGC 3256B and NGC 3256C. Finally\, our results are consistent with the presence of low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGN) in NGC 6221 and NGC 3256\, as previously suggested in the literature. \nFecha y lugar: 02/12/2025 – 12:30 | Sala de JuntasJuliana SaponaraInstituto Argentino de Radioastronomia (IAR) \n

SUMMARY:SO Colloquium: The Earth 2.0 (ET) Space Mission
DESCRIPTION:The Earth 2.0 (ET) mission\, currently in Phase B and scheduled for launch in fall 2028\, aims to discover Earth-like exoplanets using a dedicated space observatory at the Earth-Sun L2 point. It will combine six wide-field transit telescopes and one microlensing telescope\, leveraging large-format CMOS detectors for ultra-precise photometry. Over its four-year primary mission\, ET will monitor ~3 million nearby dwarf stars for transits and ~30 million stars in the Galactic bulge for microlensing events. Simulations suggest the mission will detect ~17 Earth 2.0 analogs\, ~25 free-floating Earth-mass planets\, over 4000 terrestrial-like planets\, and tens of thousands of additional exoplanets. \nThis talk will present an overview of the mission design\, technical innovations\, and its potential for exoplanet\, stellar and time-domain sciences. \nFecha y lugar: 04/12/2025 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosJian GeShanghai Astronomical Observatory \n  \n

SUMMARY:SO Colloquium: Planetesimal vs. Pebble Accretion
DESCRIPTION:A major issue in planet formation theory is whether the terrestrial planets formed mostly by accreting asteroid-sized (~100 km) planetesimals\, or mostly by accreting small (~cm) pebbles. In either theory\, planetesimals are the first steps in formation\, and these may accrete into Mars-sized planets within the ≈2 Myr lifetime of the inner disk. Pebble accretion has been rejected for various reasons\, but those reasons don’t actually discriminate between the theories. One objection is that even mm-sized objects are commonly thought to drift into the Sun in < 2 Myr due to aerodynamic drag. This would prevent terrestrial planets from accreting pebbles with «NC» (inner-disk) isotopic composition. But it would also be a problem for formation of planetesimal parent bodies of chondrites. \nHowever\, I’ll show that the combination of the pebble trap at the dead zone inner edge\, plus turbulent diffusion of chondrules\, is quite favorable for retention of chondrule-sized pebbles\, enabling both pebble accretion and planetesimal accretion. Another objection is the geochemical constraint from Hf-W dating that Earth’s core’s formed over ~10^8 yr\, consistent with planetesimal accretion. However\, nebular H\, He\, and Ne in Earth’s deep mantle demand ingassing into a magma ocean\, and rapid core formation in ~ 10^6 yr. This geochemical constraint demands the Earth’s Hf-W age was reset during the Moon-forming impact and does not discriminate between the scenarios. What might discriminate between the formation scenarios are moderately volatile element (MVE) abundances. Whereas Mars has MVE patterns consistent with planetesimal accretion of chondrites\, Earth is depleted in MVEs. I describe a scenario by which Earth’s embryos mostly grew by accretion of MVE-depleted chondrule-sized pebbles. While Mars might have grown from planetesimals\, growth of larger planets (proto-Earth\, possibly Theia and Venus\, and super-Earth exoplanets) likely is dominated by pebble accretion. \nFecha y lugar: 09/12/2025 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosSteve DeschArizona State University\, USA \n

SUMMARY:Simulations to unlock Micro-Arcsecond Astronomy with La Palma Quantum Interferometry (LPQI)
DESCRIPTION:Stars in the night sky\, even in nearby multi-star systems\, generally appear as unresolved points of light through conventional telescopes. Achieving sub-milliarcsecond resolution at optical wavelengths requires the use of interferometric techniques. While Michelson stellar interferometers now reach baselines of up to 300 m\, extending angular resolution to even finer scales demands a complementary approach: Intensity Interferometry (II). The recent global resurgence of II has opened new possibilities for high-precision studies of massive and evolved stars. \nThe Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos (ORM) on La Palma\, with its large-aperture telescopes and long baselines\, offers a unique platform for advancing II. In this talk\, I will present simulated results for stellar systems within the framework of the La Palma Quantum Interferometry (LPQI) initiative. These simulations focus on identifying promising stellar targets and assessing achievable signal-to-noise ratios. The results demonstrate the potential to resolve binary systems at micro-arcsecond scales\, enabling precise measurements of stellar radii and orbital parameters in close massive binaries\, modeling Roche-lobe geometries in Wolf–Rayet systems\, and establishing the foundation for exoplanet astrometry in stellar systems\, where traditional detection methods are often limited. \nFecha y lugar: 15/12/2025 – 13:00 | Salón de ActosNitu RaiAryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES)\, Nainital \n  \n

SUMMARY:KM3-230213A: the ultra-high-energy neutrino detected in KM3NeT
DESCRIPTION:The detection by the KM3NeT neutrino telescope of the ultra-high-energy event KM3-230213A is a milestone in neutrino astrophysics. With an energy estimated of about 220 PeV\, it is the most energetic neutrino observed to date\, challenging the current understanding of the cosmic spectrum. Its observation opens the question of its astrophysical origin. \nIn this talk\, details on the KM3-230213A detection and observed signature will be presented\, describing the detection technique and significance assessment. Possible astrophysical sources\, including extragalactic and cosmogenic origins\, will be discussed. \nFecha y lugar: 16/12/2025 – 13:00 | Salón de ActosSergio Navas ConchaUniversidad de Granada \n

SUMMARY:Darwin y las galaxias
DESCRIPTION:Darwin fue uno de los mayores revolucionarios del pensamiento humano. Su teoría sobre el origen de las especies supuso un auténtico revulsivo intelectual\, culminando la herencia del pensamiento ilustrado y generando consecuencias que aún sentimos hoy. \nVivió 80 años durante el siglo XIX\, siendo testigo privilegiado de la era Victoriana y del notable desarrollo científico que tuvo lugar en Europa\, especialmente en el Reino Unido. Fue contemporáneo de la transformación de la astronomía en astrofísica y admiró a grandes astrónomos de su tiempo. Pero\, ¿qué relación tuvo Darwin con esta ciencia? Y más allá\, ¿puede existir algún paralelismo entre la evolución de las especies y la de los objetos celestes? \nEsta charla propone un fascinante paseo por la “ciencia evolutiva” del universo\, explorando la idea de las especies astronómicas. \nFecha:18/12/2025 – 19:00Conferenciante:  Emilio J.

SUMMARY:SO Colloquium - First reallistic modeling of dust in protoplanetary disks: perspectives for future observations
DESCRIPTION:First results on modeling of light scattering by non-spherical and porous dust particles in protoplanetary disks have been obtained after a fruitful collaboration between IAA and IRyA backed by SO program: Daniel Guirado visiting IRyA\, Carlos Carrasco and Miguel Jesús Jáquez visiting IAA and Gonzalo Vargas’ SO FPI. First paper produced by this collaboration has been recently submitted for publication: «Modeling (Sub)-Millimeter Scattering Properties of Fractal and Consolidated Porous Particles: Applications to Protoplanetary Disks» and second paper is ready for submission in a few days a the time of this application: «Exploring the millimeter emission spectrum and polarization of protoplanetary disks with irregular dust particles» \nA detailed characterization of dust evolution within protoplanetary disks is essential to uncover how planets form. Only in the past decade\, with the advent of high-resolution radio interferometers such as the VLA and ALMA\, have we been able to map dust distributions in these disks with unprecedented precision. Early observations revealed an unexpected diversity of substructures —including rings\, gaps\, and asymmetric patterns— indicative of the onset of planet formation and its dynamical impact on the disk. After surveying hundreds of disks across various star-forming regions\, we are now beginning to outline multiple evolutionary pathways that may lead to planetary systems with markedly different architectures. \nBased new results of light scattering in disks produced by this SO collaboration\, basic properties of the dust such as their mass or size can be updated. And new perspectives on observations that may lead us to find out new details on the movie of the evolution of disks are open. These future observations must be matched with modelling efforts. New technological achievements and instruments to be developed and in service very soon must be matched with these modelling efforts as well: ngVLA and SKA \nFecha y lugar: 08/01/2026 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosCarlos CarrascoIRyA-UNAM \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Precise radial velocities with ESPRESSO: pushing the limit to 10 cm/s
DESCRIPTION:The ESPRESSO spectrograph\, mounted on the VLT\, was designed to achieve a long-term radial velocity (RV) precision of 10 cm/s\, enabling the detection of Earth-mass planets within the habitable zones (HZ) of their host stars. \nI present results from the instrument’s Guaranteed Time Observations campaign on three low-activity G\, K\, and M stars. We characterise the precision achievable from the timescales of minutes and dominated by pulsations\, to timescales of years as required for HZ planet detection. To achieve this\, we employ different RV calculation methods and activity indicators\, assessing the limiting factors of both instrumental precision and stellar RV stability. Using a comprehensive analysis\, we reach a RV floor level of 40 cm/s over a timescale of several years. \nInterestingly\, the ESPRESSO data shows no evidence for several previously announced planetary signals; we discuss the population of planets that\, while not directly observed\, remain consistent with ESPRESSO data. \nFinally\, we explore the stellar physical phenomena that can be studied to further improve RV precision and enhance our planet detection capabilities. This is key for the future precise RV campaigns as enabled by ESPRESSO and similar instruments. \nFecha y lugar: 13/01/2026 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosPedro FigueiraIAA-CSIC \n  \n

SUMMARY:From cluster detection to galaxy alignment: an overview of SCALE with S-PLUS survey
DESCRIPTION:Galaxy clusters and groups are vital tools for exploring and understanding the Universe. \nThis presentation focuses on results based on the SCALE sample from the Southern Photometric Local Universe Survey (S-PLUS)\, including galaxy cluster detection\, membership estimation and characterization\, matching with eROSITA X-ray data\, and a detailed study of galaxy spatial alignments out to 6R200. \nWe discuss the purity and completeness of the resulting catalogs using X-ray comparisons\, potential biases introduced by the matching technique\, the preprocessing of galaxies associated with filaments\, and the parameters that enhance the alignment signal between brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) and their satellite populations. Together\, these analyses demonstrate the potential of the S-PLUS survey for cluster identification and environmental studies. \nFecha y lugar: 15/01/2026 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosLia DoubrawaUniversity of Helsinki – Finland\, Universidade de São Paulo – Brazil \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:High energy blazar physics in the Multi-Messenger context
DESCRIPTION:Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are among the most powerful sources in the Universe\, dominating the non-thermal energy output across nearly all electromagnetic bands. Understanding the mechanisms behind this emission\, such as accretion onto supermassive black holes\, particle acceleration\, magnetic field generation\, and shock formation in relativistic plasma\, is essential for interpreting high-energy and multi-messenger observations. These processes can be best probed through coordinated studies combining very-high-energy and high-angular-resolution observations. \nI will present recent results from polarization VLBI studies that trace jet formation\, acceleration\, and magnetic field structure in AGN on parsec scales. Our observations provide clear evidence for a net toroidal magnetic field in a current-carrying blazar jet. We also find that blazars viewed at extremely small angles to the line of sight can naturally resolve the long-standing «Doppler factor crisis\,» reconciling the low apparent jet speeds from VLBI with the high Doppler factors inferred from very-high-energy observations. \nOur results highlight the central role of relativistic beaming in shaping the gamma-ray and neutrino emission of blazars. This suggests that parent PeV-scale protons exhibit relativistic bulk motion and offers new constraints for models of their multi-messenger output. \nFecha y lugar: 19/01/2026 – 13:00 | Salón de ActosYuri KovalevMax Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy \n

SUMMARY:Fantastic PeVatrons and where to find them
DESCRIPTION:Cosmic rays with energies up to about 3 PeV corresponding to the ‘knee’ feature in the observed spectrum are believed to be of Galactic origin. There is however no indisputable evidence\, neither observational nor theoretical\, that Galactic sources can supply enough protons of these high energies. A long-standing paradigm constitutes that the bulk of Galactic cosmic rays at least at lower energies are produced in supernova remnants\, which is based mainly on the fact that supernova explosions can provide enough energy to explain the energy density of cosmic rays in the Galaxy. \nBut in recent years it becomes more and more evident that protons can reach PeV energies in supernova remnants only in some special and extreme cases. This together with recent discoveries (notably from the LHAASO experiment) of the gamma-ray emission at multi-PeV energies from a number of sources stimulated discussions of plausible alternatives among which compact massive star clusters and microquasars seem to be the most promising candidates. \nIn this talk I will discuss the current status of the search for PeVatrons from the perspective of theory and modeling focusing on capabilities of the supernova remnant paradigm also extending it to the supernovae explosions within compact stellar clusters. \nFecha y lugar: 29/01/2026 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosIurii SushchCentro de Investigaciones Energéticas\, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas (CIEMAT) \n

SUMMARY:Los eclipses en la ciencia y el conocimiento
DESCRIPTION:Amplias franjas de la Península Ibérica serán testigos este año 2026 y el siguiente\, 2027\, de sendos eclipses totales de Sol\, seguidos en 2028 por otro anular. Esta llamada “tríada ibérica de eclipses” es un conjunto de acontecimientos bastante singular. Los eclipses solares totales son acaso los sucesos astronómicos más espectaculares y que más han causado asombro y admiración en la humanidad. Son además\, una fuente de información no sólo astronómica sino también para otras disciplinas del conocimiento tanto científicas como no científicas. \nTras explicar brevemente qué es un eclipse y alguna de sus características distintivas\, la conferencia se centrará en los aspectos más destacables con los que los eclipses han contribuido a incrementar nuestro acervo cultural común. Desde su uso para determinar parámetros fundamentales para la navegación marítima en el siglo XVIII hasta la comprobación experimental de la Teoría de la Relatividad General\, pasando por la datación precisa de dinastías chinas\, la interrupción de guerras siglos antes de nuestra era\, detección de errores geofísicos en la velocidad de rotación de la Tierra\, o el descubrimiento de nuevos elementos químicos. \nFecha: 29/01/2026 – 19:00Conferenciante:  Jose Carlos del Toro IniestaFiliación:  Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA-CSIC) \n  \nEL CONFERENCIANTE \nJose Carlos del Toro Iniesta nació en Cartagena en 1960.

SUMMARY:SO Colloquium - The long and winding road from planetesimals to comets
DESCRIPTION:One of the most promising models of planetesimal formation in the young Solar System encompasses two major stages: (i) the collisional growth of dust grains into mm- to cm-sized dust/ice aggregates\, often termed «pebbles»\, followed by (ii) pebble-concentration processes that lead to the gentle self-gravitational collapse of the pebble clouds. The subsequent evolution of these planetesimals comprises heating by short- and long-lived radiogenic nuclei as well as mutual collisions so that the contemporary survivors of all these phases might have somewhat different internal structures than the primitive planetesimals in the early stages of the Solar System. \nI will use available models of the makeup of evolved planetesimals and compare them with the properties of cometary nuclei. \nFecha y lugar: 10/02/2026 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosJürgen BlumTechnische Universität Braunschweig \n

SUMMARY:SO Colloquium - Jets across the scales: High energy Galactic Stellar Outflows
DESCRIPTION:Jets have traditionally been studied at cosmological distances in systems such as active galactic nuclei and blazars in the very-high-energy domain. In recent years\, however\, they have emerged as some of the most efficient particle accelerators also in our own Galaxy\, where several classes of objects are now detected up to energies of tens of TeV. \nTheir proximity allows us to spatially resolve — at least in some cases — the outflows\, providing unprecedented insight into how these powerful accelerators operate. In this talk\, I will review the latest results obtained for Galactic jets and winds\, spanning scales from the kilometer-sized magnetospheres of pulsars to the multi-parsec structures produced by microquasars. \nFecha y lugar: 12/02/2026 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosEmma de Oña WilhelmiDESY \n  \n

SUMMARY:Deep Learning for Small Astrophysical Datasets: From Cosmology to Exoplanet Detection
DESCRIPTION:Deep learning is increasingly revolutionizing astrophysics by enabling advanced analysis of complex and high-dimensional datasets. However\, the application of these methods is often limited by data availability and noise\, requiring careful model design\, optimization\, and regularization to balance performance and robustness. \nThis talk presents recent research addressing these challenges\, including deep learning techniques for cosmological parameter reconstruction\, the use of genetic algorithms to optimize neural networks and improve precision\, and the combination of these methods to accelerate Bayesian inference. It then focuses on applications to the detection of Earth-like exoplanets using stellar radial-velocity measurements\, where stellar activity and instrumental effects dominate the signal. In particular\, deep learning models trained directly on real high-resolution stellar spectra are shown to recover tiny Doppler shifts in unseen data\, approaching the precision required for the detection of terrestrial planets. \nThe seminar aims to provide practical insights into the effective use of deep learning for astrophysical problems in which data are limited\, and precision is crucial. \nFecha y lugar: 19/02/2026 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosIsidro Gómez VargasIAA-CSIC \n  \n

SUMMARY:HAYDN: A Next-Generation ESA Mission Concept for Stellar Structure and Evolution and its impact on exoplanet and galaxy formation
DESCRIPTION:HAYDN is one of the ten mission concepts proposed to ESA’s M-class call (M8) after its Step-1 selection. It is designed to revolutionise our understanding of stellar structure and evolution through high-precision\, space-based asteroseismology in dense stellar fields\, including clusters. By performing continuous photometric monitoring of stars in these dense stellar fields\, HAYDN aims to map stellar interiors across a wide range of ages\, masses\, and chemical environments—providing unprecedented constraints on stellar physics\, Galactic evolution\, exoplanet’s formation\, and the formation history of the Milky Way\, for naming some of the HAYDN’s science cases.In this talk\, I will present the scientific motivation\, mission architecture\, and observational strategy of HAYDN\, as well as the unique diagnostic power that seismic measurements offer for probing stellar structure in environments inaccessible to current missions. I will also give an overview of the current status of the proposal\, its evolution from ESA’s M7 cycle to the ongoing M8 selection process\, and the major technical milestones achieved so far. \nA significant part of the talk will highlight the Spanish contribution to HAYDN\, including leadership roles in mission science\, coordination of key working groups\, and involvement in the design of the payload and data processing pipeline. Spain is currently the second-largest contributor to the project\, with active participation from several national institutes and universities. \nFinally\, I will outline the opportunities HAYDN opens for the Spanish community—from synergies with ground-based facilities to participation in science preparation activities—and discuss how this mission could strengthen Spain’s strategic presence in future ESA space-astrophysics programmes. \nFecha y lugar: 24/02/2026 – 12:30 | Salón de ActosAndy MoyaUniversitat de València \n  \n
