Séminaire – Janice Lee (Space Telescope Science Institut)

"Decoding Galaxies & Star Formation Feedback with 100,000 Star Clusters: PHANGS-HST & JWST today, the future with HWO" The PHANGS-HST and JWST Treasury Programs have produced the most extensive inventories to date of optically visible and dust-obscured star clusters across nearby...

12 June 2026

Séminaire – Paul Ramond (Laboratoire de Physique Corpusculaire de Caen)

"Extended body effects and gravitational wave astronomy" Born in 2015 with the first direct detection of gravitational waves emitted by a merging black hole binary, gravitational wave astronomy has since grown into a mature observational science. Hundreds of signals detected by ground-based...

Séminaire – Sharon Van der Wel (Ghent University)

"Spiral arms in stellar and gaseous disks: engines of galaxy morphological transformation" Spirals are iconic features of galaxies, and yet conventional theoretical models for how they emerge and evolve only partially capture their observed traits and their connections to their host disks....

Séminaire – Rebecca Bowler (Univ. of Manchester)

"Dust in galaxies at high redshift: insights from ALMA and JWST" Many questions remain in the study of dust in the early Universe.  When does significant dust form?  What are the properties of the dust grains compared to lower redshifts?  How does dust impact our...

Séminaire – Donia Baklouti (IAS)

"Analysis of samples from the asteroids Ryugu and Bennu in the laboratory and implications for prebiotic chemistry issues" Undifferentiated small bodies, including small asteroids, are objects whose chemical composition has changed little for more than 4 billion years. Studying them provides...

20 March 2026

Séminaire – Raphaël Errani (Carnegie Mellon)

"Collisional Dynamics in the Faintest Galaxies" Guided by the recent discoveries of faint Milky Way satellites with structural properties lying at the interface between the ultra‑faint galaxy and globular‑cluster regimes, I will discuss how micro‑galaxies can be distinguished...

27 March 2026

Séminaire – Françoise Genova (ObAS)

"L'évolution en cours de l'évaluation de la recherche" La nécessité de faire évoluer l'évaluation de la recherche pour prendre en compte la diversité des activités et des produits de celle-ci est largement reconnue au niveau national, européen et international, ainsi que par les...

13 March 2026

Séminaire – Philippe Brax (IPHT)

"Early dark energy and phantom crossing in the axio-dilaton system" Recent measurements by DESI suggest that dark energy is dynamical with an usual feature called phantom crossing.I will present models of coupled dark energy to matter where phantom crossing is natural. These models can...

6 March 2026

Séminaire – Lucas Valenzuela (Munich Observatory)

"What's Your Story? Deciphering galaxy formation histories from present-day properties" Since around 100 years it has been known that our Milky Way is not the only island of stars in the Universe. Many other galaxies have since been found, featuring an immense variety of properties. Diverse...
