Rafael Rebolo López (born September 12, 1961, in Cartagena, Spain) is a Spanish astrophysicist. In October 2013 he became the director of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias[1] (Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands; IAC). He is a professor at the Spanish National Research Council. In 2002 Rebolo became an external professor at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy and a member of the Max Planck Society.

Education
Rebolo earned a degree in physics from the University of Granada in 1984 and a doctorate in astrophysics from the University of La Laguna in 1987.[2]
Career
1984 Rafael Rebolo began as a researcher at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands ( IAC).
1997-1999 served as head of the IAC Research Division. In 1998
1998 Rebolo began to serve as a Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) Professor of Research in Physical Science
2002 Rebolo became a member of the Max Planck Society and External Professor at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg.[3][4][5]
Rebolo has developed research projects in cosmology,[6] in stellar physics[7][5] and exoplanets,[8] involving the study of the cosmic microwave background,[9][10] the characterization of sub-stellar objects [11][8] and black holes[12] and the search for Earth-like exoplanets.[7]
Rebolo and his team were responsible for the discovery in 1995 of the first brown dwarfs[7][13][9] Brown dwarfs are objects with properties intermediate between stars and giant planets.[14][15] He was part of the discovery of several giant extrasolar planets in 2000,[9][16] Rebolo provided empirical evidence in 1999 of the physical connection between supernovae and black holes.[17] He has been a pioneer in Spain in the experimental research of the cosmic microwave background.[18][12][19] Rebolo has developed experiments in astrophysical observation at the Observatorio del Teide in collaboration with the Universities of Manchester and Cambridge.
Rebolo leads the QUIJOTE consortium for measuring the polarization of the cosmic microwave background[20][21] with telescopes in Tenerife.[22] He is co-director of a high-precision spectrograph[16][23] ESPRESSO for detecting exo-Earths [16][24] with the 8 m Very Large Telescope (VLT) ) in Chile, and the AOLI project for high spatial resolution imaging[25] on the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory in La Palma, Canary Islands. He is co-investigator of the European Space Agency’s Planck[16][10] and Euclid space missions, and member of the Board of the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) and the Cherenkov Telescope Array. He was also a member of the science committee of the 40 m E-ELT telescope, the steering committees of several European networks in astronomy (OPTICON; EARA) and the US (AURA) and the Scientific Committee "Science Vision for European Astronomy" and co-chair of the "Stars and Planets" panel. He is Scientific director of the "IAC: Severo Ochoa Centre of Excellence" program since 2011.[26]
