The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) is the largest ground based astronomical telescope to be built, which will be the preeminent instrument for studies of the relic radiation from the early Universe and of the formation and evolution of stars, planetary systems, galaxies and even the origin of life itself. > Learn more

CHARMS is the acronym for "Coordinated Hydrodynamic and Astrophysical Research, Modeling, and Synthesis", an initiative that focuses on bridging the theory and numerical astrophysics with cutting­-edge observational astrophysics. > Learn more

Since 2008 ASIAA has contributed to the wide field visible camera Hyper SuprimeCam (HSC) for Subaru telescope. The main scientific goal of the HSC will be the study of weak gravitational lensing over large areas of the sky so as to unveil the properties of dark matter and dark energy.
