A little about IFA and TAC :

The Institute of Physics and Astronomy (IFA) is a part of the University of Aarhus. The institute covers a broad range of physics disciplines, including the astronomy group.

The Theoretical Astrophysics Center (TAC) is financed by the Danish National Research Foundation (Danmarks Grundforskningsfond), initially for a 5-year period from its start in February 1994 and now extended for another 5 years from 1999. TAC has departments at the Niels Bohr Institute for Astrophysics, Physics, and Geophysics, at Copenhagen University, and at IFA. TAC's director is Professor Igor Novikov, Copenhagen. The department in Århus occupies itself primarily with the study of the structure and oscillations of the Sun and other stars.
