Direct Imaging of New Worlds with SPHERE at VLT

Le 18 octobre 2016 De 14h00 à 16h00 Gael Chauvin, Université de Grenoble With the development of high contrast imaging techniques and instruments, vast efforts have been devoted during the past decades to detect and characterize lighter, cooler and closer companions to nearby...

Magnetic reconnection in large aspect ratio current sheets

Le 14 octobre 2016 De 10h30 à 12h00 Daniele Del Sarto, Université de Lorraine, Institut Jean Lamour, Nancy Magnetic reconnection, process at the basis of several phenomena observed in natural and laboratory plasmas (e.g., solar flares, magnetic storms in the magnetosphere,...

Accretion-driven outbursts in the context of massive star formation

Le 7 octobre 2016 De 10h30 à 12h00 Dominique Meyer, Institut für Astronomie und Astrophysik, Universität Tübingen Accretion-driven luminosity outbursts are a vivid manifestation of variable mass accretiononto protostars. They are known as the so-called FU Orionis phenomenon...

Secular evolution in discrete self-gravitating stellar discs

Le 23 septembre 2016 De 10h30 à 12h00 Jean-Baptiste FOUVRY IAP Fluctuations in a stellar system's gravitational field cause the orbits of stars to evolve. These fluctuations can either originate from external perturbers (e.g. flybys), or from the intrinsic discreteness of...

The structure of galactic thick disks

Le 9 septembre 2016 De 10h30 à 12h00 Marie MARTIG MPIA Heidelberg   Thick disks are ubiquitous in nearby spiral galaxies, and many mechanisms have been proposed to explain their formation. I will first use a suite of zoom cosmological simulations to explore the connection...

Dust evolution in Milky Way PDRs and Andromeda

Le 1 juillet 2016 De 10h30 à 12h00 Heddy ARAB Observatoire astronomique de Strasbourg  Dust plays a fundamental role in the evolution of interstellar medium and of galaxies. Astrophysical observations combined to numerical models and laboratory studies of dust analogues...

Diet for the monsters: molecular tori in active galaxies

Le 17 juin 2016 De 10h30 à 12h00 Leonard BUTSCHER MPE Garching AGNs happen in every galaxy and the feedback they generate may play a fundamental role in the evolution of galaxies. We still do not know, however, what triggers nuclear activity since active and inactive galaxies...

Progrès récents des tests de la gravitation dans le système solaire

Le 3 juin 2016 De 10h30 à 12h00 Christophe LE PONCIN-LAFITTE Observatoire de Paris, LNE-SYRTE Les expériences de géodésie, d’astrométrie et de temps/fréquences, au sol ou dans l’espace, permettent de tester les lois fondamentales de la gravitation dans le Système...
