The contribution of Wenceslao Castanares to the studies of C. S. Peirce
Este texto describe la producción científica del profesor Wenceslao Castañares incidiendo
en su contribución al conocimiento de la obra de Charles Sanders Peirce. Wenceslao Castañares –por
delante y por encima de cualquier otro– fue la persona clave para el descubrimiento del pensamiento
de Peirce en el mundo hispánico. No solo logró que se le llegara a conocer, sino que contribuyó decisivamente a la comprensión de la obra peirceana y al desarrollo de las cuestiones que el pensamiento de
Peirce planteaba en muy diversas áreas. Los autores revisan el perfil humano, las aportaciones esenciales y valoran en detalle la importancia del legado de este profesor.This text describes the scientific production of Professor Wenceslao Castañares, noting specifically his contribution to the knowledge of the works of Charles Sanders Peirce. Wenceslao Castañares –ahead and above anyone else– was the key person in discovering Peirce’s thought in the Hispanic
world. Not only did he get to know him, but he contributed decisively to the understanding of the Peircean works and to the development of the questions that Peirce’s thought posed in many different areas.
The authors review the human profile, the essential contributions and assess in detail the importance of
this professor’s legacy
The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE : survey design, overview, and simulated implementation
Funding for the WEAVE facility has been provided by UKRI STFC, the University of Oxford, NOVA, NWO, Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), the Isaac Newton Group partners (STFC, NWO, and Spain, led by the IAC), INAF, CNRS-INSU, the Observatoire de Paris, Région Île-de-France, CONCYT through INAOE, Konkoly Observatory (CSFK), Max-Planck-Institut für Astronomie (MPIA Heidelberg), Lund University, the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP), the Swedish Research Council, the European Commission, and the University of Pennsylvania.WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, will see first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-degree field-of-view prime-focus corrector system, a nearly 1000-multiplex fibre positioner, 20 individually deployable 'mini' integral field units (IFUs), and a single large IFU. These fibre systems feed a dual-beam spectrograph covering the wavelength range 366-959 nm at R ∼ 5000, or two shorter ranges at R ∼ 20,000. After summarising the design and implementation of WEAVE and its data systems, we present the organisation, science drivers and design of a five- to seven-year programme of eight individual surveys to: (i) study our Galaxy's origins by completing Gaia's phase-space information, providing metallicities to its limiting magnitude for ∼ 3 million stars and detailed abundances for ∼ 1.5 million brighter field and open-cluster stars; (ii) survey ∼ 0.4 million Galactic-plane OBA stars, young stellar objects and nearby gas to understand the evolution of young stars and their environments; (iii) perform an extensive spectral survey of white dwarfs; (iv) survey ∼ 400 neutral-hydrogen-selected galaxies with the IFUs; (v) study properties and kinematics of stellar populations and ionised gas in z 1 million spectra of LOFAR-selected radio sources; (viii) trace structures using intergalactic/circumgalactic gas at z > 2. Finally, we describe the WEAVE Operational Rehearsals using the WEAVE Simulator.PostprintPeer reviewe

eight individual surveys to: (i) study our Galaxy's origins by completing
Gaia's phase-space information, providing metallicities to its limiting
magnitude for 3 million stars and detailed abundances for
million brighter field and open-cluster stars; (ii) survey million
Galactic-plane OBA stars, young stellar objects and nearby gas to understand
the evolution of young stars and their environments; (iii) perform an extensive
spectral survey of white dwarfs; (iv) survey
neutral-hydrogen-selected galaxies with the IFUs; (v) study properties and
kinematics of stellar populations and ionised gas in cluster galaxies;
(vi) survey stellar populations and kinematics in field galaxies

and star formation using million spectra of LOFAR-selected radio sources;
(viii) trace structures using intergalactic/circumgalactic gas at .
