Gaia: a giant leap for astrophysics

Le 22 novembre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Stefan Jordan  ARI Heidelberg  Since 2014, ESA's Gaia satellite measures the positions  of a huge number of stars of our Milky Way in order to gain a better understanding of the structure and evolution of our home galaxy.  In recent...

The new interstellar era

Le 15 novembre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Marc-Antoine Miville-Deschênes CEA   Today we fundamentally do not understand the process of formation of collapsed structures in the Universe. How the injection of energy, mass, and metals from stars and galaxies play against the forces...

Resonances and chaos in the dynamics of trans-Neptunian objects

Le 8 novembre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Melaine Saillenfest IMCCE   Trans-Neptunian objects have complex orbital dynamics involving mechanisms as diverse as close encounters with Neptune, chaotic scattering driven by resonance overlap, secular effects from the giant planets,...

Why Modify Gravity?

Le 18 octobre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Jackson Said University of Malta   The standard model of cosmology has shown remarkable success in explaining cosmological observations in recent decades. This model consists of Einstein's theory of general relativity, the standard model of...

Galaxy evolution: a gas perspective

Le 11 octobre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Jonathan Freundlich Hebrew University   Galaxy history is marked by a peak of star formation ten billion years ago and a subsequent drop of the star formation rate (SFR) by an order of magnitude. To understand this evolution, it is crucial...

Gravitational probes of dark matter

Le 27 septembre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Justin Read University of Surrey   Dark matter makes up most of the mass of the Universe but remains mysterious. I discuss recent progress in constraining its properties by measuring its distribution in the Universe from tiny dwarf...

Assembling the Milky Way

Le 20 septembre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Florent Renaud Lund   In the Gaia era, and with more and more complete surveys, the assembly of the Milky Way is being scrutinized with an always increasing accuracy. The kinematic and chemical properties of stellar populations are...

La mission Planck et le modèle cosmologique

Le 13 septembre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Jean-Loup Puget IAS/ENS   Les données de la mission Planck ont vérifié plusieurs prédictions génériques du paradigme d'inflation qui donne une base physique aux conditions initiales du modèle historique du "big  bang". Les...
