Open clusters are widely used in studies of the structure of the Galaxy because they are distributed throughout the galactic plane, and because their distances and especially ages can be determined with good precision through isochrone fit.The publication of the Gaia DR2 and Gaia DR3 catalogues has made it possible to determine with greater precision the stars that belong to open clusters…
We plan to install a radio telescope 12 meters in diameter for millimeter and sub-millimeter waves, at close to 5000 m altitude, in the Argentine Andes, in collaboration with the Argentine Institute for Radio Astronomy. The main lines of research are: 1) black holes and accretion discs 2) Molecular evolution of clouds and astrobiology 3) the spiral structure of the Galaxy. Observations wi…
The plan is to establish a long-term collaboration between NOVA and IAG-USP, in science and in development of instruments, aiming to the best use of the LLAMA radio telescope with competitive receivers. There is a significant science case to be made for a single-pixel side-band separating receiver operating at 'band 9' frequencies (approx. 600 to 700 GHz) on a single-dish telescope at a s…
We are asking for financial resources for a one year visit of Dr. Wilton S. Dias, professor at the Federal University of Itajubá, MG, for scientific collaboration with Dr. Jacques Lépine and his group of PhD students in IAG-USP. The focus of research is on open star clusters, which constitute a tool for the study of the spiral structure of the Galaxy. Several activities are intended to …

The aim of the present proposal is to make systematic observations of Ultra-Luminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGS) in the 183 GHz line of the H2O molecule, making use of the Band 5 receiver that will be available at LLAMA. The observations of maser lines and their spectral energy distribution will bring insight on the emitting sources. The masers detected in ULIRGS could be complemented by o…
Thanks to the dynamic advance in Radioastronomy has been detected molecules involved in the origin of life have been detected in Space. The discovery of such chemical species opened the door to a recent field: Astrochemistry, that is a multidisciplinary area which main goal is to study the physical and chemical properties of the Interstellar Medium. The study of the chemical evolution o…

The emergence of molecular complexity in Sun-like star forming regions is one of the main questions of Molecular Astrophysics. Two ongoing IRAM Large Programs led by IPAG scientists, IRAM-30m/ASAI (Astrochemical Surveys At Iram; PIs, B. Lefloch & R. Bachiller, 380 hrs) and NOEMA/SOLIS (Seeds Of Life In Space; PIs, C. Ceccarelli & P. Caselli, 380 hrs), have been undertaken to address this …
