Explorando los misterios del Universo a través del viaje de los desconocidos Rayos Cósmicos
 Los rayos cósmicos -partículas cargadas ultrarrelativistas que bombardean la Tierra desde todas los puntos del cielo- son invisibles al ojo humano pero contienen información sobre los procesos más fundamentales del Universo, tales como su creación y evolución. Estas partículas se producen en los procesos más violentos del Universo y su observación directa no nos da información acerca de...

The art of astrophysical measurements: An elementary lecture on photon counting and S/N
Have you ever dared to understand how many photons are detected by your camera when you are pointing the telescope to the sky? Is the action of the spectrograph fully understood when analyzing those photons? Do typical image formation rules hold when studying the polarization of light? All these are a few examples of questions addressed by researchers when designing instruments, which are later constrained by technological capabilities. This...

Unraveling the Gamma-ray emission in radiogalaxies and their jets
Radio-galaxies are a minority among all extragalactic sources detected in gamma-rays, yet they have excellent potential to study particle acceleration and non-thermal emission in AGN jets. In contrast with blazars, which have jets aligned with the line-of-sight, radio-galaxies have a smaller Doppler boosting factors. The implications are important: First, the distance at which they are detectable in gamma-rays is smaller. Second, the thermal...

Coloquio SO: Spectroscopy's Role in Stellar Astrophysics
To characterize a star, the stellar fundamental parameters such as mass, radius, metal abundance, and effective temperature should be known. Direct measurements of these parameters, especially for single stars, are quite challenging, and indirect methods are often employed to obtain these characteristics. The most effective method for determining these parameters is spectroscopy, which is an analysis technique of spectra. It allows us to...

Journey into the Galactic Heart: Illuminating the Enigma of the Nuclear Star Cluster and the Nuclear Stellar Disc.
The innermost regions of most galaxies are characterised by the presence of extremely dense nuclear star clusters, which sometimes appear together with larger stellar structures known as nuclear stellar discs. Understanding the relation between nuclear star clusters and nuclear stellar discs is challenging due to the large distance towards other galaxies which limits their analysis to integrated light. In this context, the Milky Way’s centre,...

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration has captured the first-ever image of a black hole's event horizon in the galaxy M87, and more recently, in the supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way, SgrA*. These images, consistent with Kerr black holes as described by General Relativity, provide the strongest evidence to date for the existence of supermassive black holes in galaxy nuclei. Notably, the first polarization images of...

Light pollution has a direct impact on the environment, on astronomical observations and on the starry sky as a heritage resource of humanity.

Outflows from low to high luminous AGNs
Outflows are believed to play a major role in the evolution of galaxies and are said to be ubiquitous within the active galactic nuclei (AGN) population. However, we still lack a comprehensive view of their properties and impact in their host galaxies and the surrounding medium. If we focus on the low luminosity part of the AGN family, in particular in low ionisation nuclear emission-line regions (LINERs), the impact of outflows is still largely...

Coloquio SO: Extracting stellar populations and (mainly) emission line information out of S-PLUS photometry
We present tests of a new method to simultaneously estimate stellar population and emission line (EL) properties of galaxies out of S-PLUS photometry. The technique uses the AlStar code, updated with an empirical prior which greatly improves its ability to estimate ELs using only the survey's 12 bands. The tests compare the output of (noise-perturbed) synthetic photometry of SDSS galaxies to properties derived from previous (STARLIGHT-based)...

SO Colloquium: The demographics of small exoplanets
The diversity of the exoplanet population is beyond our imagination. The more than 5000 known exoplanets vastly differ in mass, size, orbital period, dynamics, and host type. Demographic studies, however, aim to find patterns in the population that inform us about their origin, composition, and evolution. Among these features, perhaps the most surprising is the abundance of planets with no analog in the solar system, also known as sub-Neptunes....

SO Colloquium: The evolution of the accretion process: investigating the protostellar phase to constraints planet formation
The accretion process is responsible for the mass building during the star formation phase, but our knowledge of this phenomenon is still not totally understood. On one side, the magnetospheric accretion scenario describes the accretion on pre-main sequence (Class II/III) low-mass stars. However, most of the material is supposed to be accreted during the earliest stages, i.e. the protostellar phase (Class 0/I), when the forming star and its disk...

SO colloquio: Pulsar astrophysics in the era of large surveys
History tells us that with new telescopes and new data processing techniques come new discoveries and breakthroughs in pulsar astrophysics. Despite nearly 55 years since their discovery, fundamental open questions remain in almost all areas of research. Examples include the birth properties and environments, the magnetic field configuration and evolution, the interactions of the superfluid interior with the solid crust, the processes of...

Lo que debemos a los astrónomos del Egipto antiguo: una perspectiva desde la ciencia y la cultura
El Egipto antiguo fascina por sus monumentos y sus tesoros, y algunos de sus personajes figuran en el acervo colectivo. Sin embargo, en general, se ignora que Egipto también tuvo una contribución substancial a la ciencia, la astronomía incluida. Los filósofos griegos viajaban a Egipto en busca de sabiduría. Aquí analizaremos cómo un calendario gobernado por las inundaciones anuales del Nilo acabó convirtiéndose en el calendario que regula la...

International Asteroid Impact Defense Collaboration
The defense of our planet against asteroid impacts counts on international collaboration. NASA's OSIRIS-REx and Japan's Hyabusa2 spacecraft studied two potentially hazardous asteroids Bennu & Ryugu and bring samples back to Earth. NASA's DART, Italy's LICIACube and ESA's Hera spacecraft test a method of planetary defense against asteroids.

Radio continuum halos in nearby galaxies and the CHANG-ES project
About a decade ago, the upgrade from the classic Very Large Array into the EVLA, i.e. the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA), made it possible to observe fainter radio continuum emission than ever before. The project Continuum Halos in Nearby Galaxies - an EVLA Survey (CHANG-ES, PI: J. Irwin) has allowed us to probe gaseous halos of 35 edge-on galaxies with arcsecond details and faint microJansky/beam sensitivities, and to begin answering...

SO colloquium: X-ray Polarimetry: a New Window to the Universe
Polarimetry is a very important technique for understanding magnetic fields and high-energy processes in the Universe. While we have been studying polarization in the radio and optical side of the electromagnetic spectrum for decades, what happens at higher energies has, until recently, eluded us. In 2021 NASA finally launched the first X-ray polarimeter, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer - IXPE, offering us a completely new window to the...

J-PAS: a survey for tracing the role that star formation and environment play in galaxy evolution
The processes that explain the evolution of galaxies from the blue cloud to the red sequence are still under discussion. Internal processes, named as mass-quenching, because they are linked to the galaxy mass or AGN feedback, could be responsible of the rapid quench of the star formation in galaxies. Besides the stellar mass, the evolution of the galaxy populations is also a function of the environment. Unlike the mass quenching, the...

Coloquio SO: A holistic approach to exoplanet spectroscopy
During the last two decades, multiple observation techniques have enabled the study of exoplanet atmospheres, informing us about their chemical composition, thermal distribution and transport processes. The most successful techniques include low-resolution transit and eclipse spectroscopy, phase curves, and high-resolution Doppler spectroscopy. In all cases, the extraction of the atmospheric signal presents a challenge, being comparable to or...
