Sorprendió a los investigadores por su forma ordenada, pese a estar en una etapa temprana de la formación del universo. En el equipo está el Investigador Asociado del CATA Manuel Aravena. La galaxia de disco denominada REBELS-25 pudo ser observada tal como era hace 700 millones de años, un 5% de la edad actual del …

“Millennium Nucleus for Galaxies (MINGAL)” is the title of the initiative in which the academic and researcher of the Institute of Astrophysical Studies UDP will work. The academic and researcher of the Institute of Astrophysical Studies (IEA) of the Faculty of Engineering and Sciences at Diego Portales University, Manuel Aravena, will participate as a principal …
With the aid of a talk and practical activities given by astronomers from the Center for Astrophysics and Related Technologies (CATA), students from the Liceo Cervantes were able to learn about the origin and evolution of galaxies. How can the distance to stars be measured? This was one of several questions that, in a practical …

Manuel Aravena – Emol May 9, 2024 Although we have built much of our astronomical knowledge through observations of “visible” light (that which we see with our eyes), this corresponds to only a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Most of the radiation coming from the Universe cannot be seen with optical telescopes like Galileo’s, …
ORCHIDS: ORigin of the [C II] Halos In Distant Systems”, is the title of the project led by UDP academic Manuel Aravena, together with former UDP/Carnegie postdoctoral researcher Jorge González-López (now a professor at PUC). 03/13/2024 In its most recent observing time allocation cycle, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) granted 43.2 hours of observing …
The South African astronomer became the fifth graduate of the program taught by the Institute of Astrophysical Studies of the Diego Portales University last Tuesday, December 19th. 01/15/2024 “Exploring [CII] Haloes and Quasar Environments in and near the Epoch of Reionization”, is the title of Trystan Lambert’s thesis, whose supervising professors were Roberto Assef and …
Con datos del Telescopio Espacial James Webb, un equipo internacional de astrónomas/os encontró estos elementos a una distancia de 12 mil millones de años luz. La investigación fue publicada en la revista Nature. Dos miembros del Instituto de Estudios Astrofísicos de la Universidad Diego Portales participaron de una nueva investigación publicada por la prestigiosa revista …
[:en]While investigating the data of young, distant galaxies observed with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), Yoshinobu Fudamoto from Waseda University and the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan noticed unexpected emissions coming from seemingly empty regions in space that, a global research team confirmed, came actually from two hitherto undiscovered galaxies heavily obscured by cosmic …
La iniciativa denominada “CRISTAL” contará con cerca de 150 horas, buscando revelar cómo son algunas de las galaxias más distantes y tempranas conocidas y cómo éstas evolucionaron en las que se ven en el universo local. El observatorio ALMA otorgó cerca de 150 horas de observación al proyecto CRISTAL, la primera iniciativa liderada desde Chile …
An international group of astronomers has used the ALMA observatory to obtain an inventory of molecular gas and dust in distant galaxies at unprecedented depth in the iconic Hubble Ultra-Deep Field (H-UDF), one of the best-studied regions of the sky. The final results are being presented in a series of papers in today’s Astrophysical Journal. …
