Constraining the survivability of different organisms to space-like conditions is of great interest
for Astrobiology. Extreme conditions can lead to alteration in the metabolic pathways of biological
systems. To identify organisms of interest for future astrobiological studies, it is necessary to
investigate their physiological parameters to understand the mechanisms involved in metabolic
rearrangement.
The Cosmic Microwave Background, the relic emission from the primordial Universe, is one of the most important observables in Cosmology. Its recovery is generally carried out by parametric and (semi) blind methods after removing several Galactic and extragalactic emissions. However, in order to take into account their non-linear behaviors, Machine Learning approaches such Neural Networks seem to be promising for that task. In this talk, I will describe how they begin to be an alternative and reliable methods for recovering the Cosmic Microwave Background.
One of most important issue in Astrophysics is the achievement of a robust understanding of the sequence of processes that contributed to the building up of the Milky Way. This is obviously important not only "on a local scale" in order to recover the history of formation and evolution of the Galaxy, but also, more in general, for understanding the formation process of spiral galaxies. In the last decade, the advent of high precision photometric and spectroscopic surveys as well as the possibility to estimate, thanks to the ESA Gaia mission, accurate distance for a huge number of field stars, combined with the development of an accurate theoretical framework, is actually opening a new era for this kind of investigations.
We will present some recent results - obtained by using this updated observational and theoretical framework - about the formation and early evolution of the Milky Way.

The vast majority of close-in planets are either massive hot Jupiters capable of holding their atmosphere against the stellar photoevaporation or small rocky planets completely drained by the stellar radiation. We observe an unexpected dearth of highly irradiated Neptune- and Saturn-like planets orbiting their host star in less than 4-10 days, called "Hot Neptune Desert". In this talk, I will present our recent findings from uniformly vetting 250 hot Neptune TESS candidates using a two-step vetting technique, as well as discuss a cutting-edge approach to examine the problem under a new perspective. I will also discuss how the PLATO mission may enhance our understanding of the Hot Neptunes.
We will present some recent results - obtained by using this updated observational and theoretical framework - about the formation and early evolution of the Milky Way.
In occasione della Notte Europea dei Ricercatori 2024, l’INAF-Osservatorio Astrofisico di Catania ha organizzato varie attività per il pubblico che si svolgeranno tra il 27 e il 28 settembre.
