About the Institute for Astronomy
The Institute for Astronomy (IfA) was founded at the University of Hawaii (UH) in 1967 to manage Haleakala and Mauna Kea Observatories, and to carry out its own program of fundamental research into the stars, planets and galaxies that make up our Universe. One of eleven research institutes within the University of Hawaii it has a total staff of over 200, including about 45 faculty. The Institute has an annual budget of $20m, including $15m in grants from the federal government.

Research at the IfA
The Institute for Astronomy is one of the world's leading astronomical research centers. Its broad-based program includes studies of the Sun, planets, and stars, as well as interstellar matter, galaxies, and cosmology. Most IfA astronomers use the giant telescopes atop Mauna Kea and Haleakala to collect faint visible light, and infrared and submillimeter radiation from distant objects. They also use and support space observatories, such as the Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra (an X-ray astronomy satellite), to make observations that cannot be made from the ground.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Institute of Astronomy Observatory Building, housing the library Institute of Astronomy Hoyle Building in the evening The Institute of Astronomy (IoA) is the largest of the three astronomy departments in the University of Cambridge , and one of the largest astronomy sites in the UK . Around 170 academics, postdocs, visitors and assistant staff work at the department. Research at the department is made in a number of scientific areas, including stars , star clusters, cosmology , the high- redshift universe, AGN galaxies and galaxy clusters . This is a mixture of observational astronomy, over the entire electromagnetic spectrum, computational theoretical astronomy, and analytic theoretical research. The Kavli Institute for Cosmology is also located on the department site. This Institute has an emphasis on The Universe at High Redshifts . The current plans are to also bring the Cavendish Astrophysics Group onto the site eventually.

Radio Telescopes Will Add to Cassini-Huygens Discoveries
When the European Space Agency's Huygens spacecraft makes its plunge into the atmosphere of Saturn's moon Titan on January 14, radio telescopes of the National Science Foundation's National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) will help international teams of scientists extract the maximum possible amount of irreplaceable information from an experiment unique in human history. Huygens is the 700-pound probe that has accompanied the larger Cassini spacecraft on a mission to thoroughly explore Saturn, its rings and its numerous moons.

EVN was formed in 1980 by a consortium of five of the major radio astronomy institutes in Europe (the European Consortium for VLBI). Since 1980, the EVN and the Consortium have grown to include 9 institutes with 12 telescopes in 8 western European countries as well as associated institutes with telescopes in Poland, Russia, Ukraine and China. Proposals for additional telescopes in Spain and Italy are under consideration, and furthermore, the EVN can be linked to the 7-element Jodrell Bank MERLIN interferometer in the UK and to the US Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) to create a `global' network.

Largest telescope starts gazing
Tweet this Giles Tremlett in Madrid The Guardian Friday 13 July 2007
The world's largest telescope, on the Canary island of La Palma The world's largest telescope starts using its complex structure of mirrors today to scour the outer reaches of the universe for planets similar to our own and to seek clues to help explain the origins of life. Set on a mountain on an Atlantic island, far enough from human habitation to get a clear view of the night sky, the Great Canary Telescope carries with it the hopes of scientists who believe clues to understanding our world can be found in as yet unseen parts of the universe. The telescope will, in effect, peer back in time as it picks up light emitted long ago in other parts of the universe. A powerful array of 36 separate mirrors form a single mirror that is 10.4 metres (34ft) wide, 4% larger than the Keck telescopes at Mauna Kea, Hawaii. The GTC's powerful eye will penetrate dense, cold molecular "clouds" to watch stars being born and will seek out the most distant galaxies and quasars.

Our independent research group has been established in May 2007 within the framework of the Excellence Initiative by the German Research Foundation (DFG) as part of the Heidelberg Graduate School of Fundamental Physics . It focuses on the origin of the various galaxy types that we see in the Universe today. These include the types that are described by the famous Hubble-sequence, but also the smaller dwarf galaxies, which constitute the most numerous type of galaxies in the Universe. We aim at understanding the characteristics of these galaxies, their evolution, and the processes that gave them their present-day appearance. To this end, several local collaborations have already been established, in order to benefit from the wide-ranging expertise among the different Heidelberg astronomy institutes. Deep space-based imaging surveys like the Hubble Ultra Deep Field reveal a variety of distant galaxies that can hardly be described by standard classification schemes: many objects consist of several bright clumps, are highly distorted, or appear to be galaxy pairs in a phase of heavy interaction. Some of these might end up as massive elliptical galaxies, while others might form spiral galaxies like our Milky Way. We thus need to bridge the gap between the distant, younger galaxies and the nearby, further evolved ones, in order to understand the mechanisms that shape them.
