Nature Astronomy has published a study, led by the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia (IAA-CSIC), revealing the existence of a new population of forming stars capable of producing gamma rays. The results show that the jets emitted by these protostars act as efficient proton accelerators, making them a new laboratory for studying cosmic rays. Go […]
“A World of Eclipses”, an interactive atlas about the interpretations of solar eclipses in world cultures, is launched. 2026-06-20It is an initiative of the Spanish Astronomical Society that connects science, history, art and tradition in an open educational resource. The digital map includes more than 100 elements of cultural heritage from around the world, from antiquity to the present day. Go to Source
‘Solar Eclipses’, a book to safely enjoy the Iberian Trio of Eclipses 2026-06-20Alejandro Sánchez de Miguel, an astrophysicist at the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia (IAA-CSIC), has written a new paperback book to help you fully and safely enjoy the Iberian trio of eclipses. ‘Solar Eclipses’ is the latest title in the What Do We Know About? collection (CSIC-Catarata).

ICIQ presents its industrial decarbonisation project in Brussels to drive European competitiveness
2026-06-19
ICIQ has presented its pioneering industrial decarbonisation project in Brussels, at one of Europe’s most important political and economic showcases. Dr Júlia Viladoms, head of the Industrial Decarbonisation Unit at the ICIQ, was one of the key speakers in the first plenary session of the C4T (Cohesion for Transitions) Conference, a forum focused on how […]
Un mecanismo celular clave explica cómo se forma el sistema nervioso en el embrión 2026-06-19La formación del sistema nervioso es uno de los procesos más complejos y delicados del desarrollo embrionario. Un estudio reciente ha identificado un mecanismo celular fundamental para que este proceso se lleve a cabo correctamente. El trabajo demuestra que un tipo poco conocido de reciclaje celular, denominado autofagia no canónica, desempeña un papel esencial en […]
Toward precision tests of binary compact object formation with gravitational waves 2026-06-19Image Seminar Toward precision tests of binary compact object formation with gravitational waves Date 22/06 Place Online, via Zoom Abstract: Gravitational-wave observations provide a unique probe of compact objects and their environments, offering insights into stellar evolution, dynamics, cosmology, nuclear physics, and gravity. Proposed formation channels of merging binary black holes and neutron stars, such as […]
Harmonic Analysis and PDEs Summer School at the CRM
2026-06-18
Four mini-courses, from incompressible fluids to the geometry of boundaries, around a shared body of technique. CRM Auditorium, 15 to 18 June 2026. A rotating blob of fluid that never settles into rest. The ragged edge of a region in the plane. A weighted inequality that Benjamin Muckenhoupt wrote down in 1980 and that resisted […]
Heavy Quarkonium Transport and Transport Coefficients 2026-06-18Image Seminar Heavy Quarkonium Transport and Transport Coefficients Date 23/06 Place Pere Pascual V5.07 Room Abstract: Due to their large masses and short formation times, heavy quarkonium states are ideal probes of the medium formed in heavy ion collisions. Three processes determine the evolution of these states in medium: dissociation of color-singlet states into color-octet pairs, […]
