Avalanche dynamics and precursors of catastrophic events

february 3 to 8, 2019

In nature as well as in many technical applications, one encounters the sometimes problematic phenomenon of intermittent dynamics, associated to avalanches, that are complex geometrical objects on scales that can span many orders of magnitude. This workshop aims at bringing together experts from various different fields to develop further the understanding of the nonlinear spatio-temporal response of avalanche systems and to find ways to define precursors that could help to prevent (...)

Observatories of the critical zone in Africa: current issues and findings - 30th anniversary of AMMA-CATCH observatory

November 12 to 14, 2018

The AMMA-CATCH observatory invites you to an international conference on the occasion of its 30th anniversary. The expected participants are researchers, teacher-researchers, doctoral students and decision-makers.
Global changes are taking place on our planet. They concern the critical zone of the earth system, and occur at different scales. Their impacts on the energy and water cycles are already detectable, but how will these changes persist in the future and at which rate?
Three (...)

Seminar "Testing General Relativity with Infrared Interferometry in the Center of the Milky Way"

September 20, 2018

Speaker: Reinhard Genzel (MPE Garching & UC Berkeley)
The Center of our Galaxy is a unique laboratory for exploring the astrophysics around a massive black hole and testing General Relativity and other theoretical concepts in this extreme environment. I will discuss the results of a major campaign of observing the Galactic Center in 2017/2108 with three instruments at the European Southern Observatory’s VLT, including the novel GRAVITY interferometric beam combiner of the 4 UTs. During (...)

1st workshop of the International Medical Geology Association

29 - 30 mars 2018

(Annecy)

Un nouveau domaine scientifique est en train d’émerger, où les méthodologies développées dans les Sciences de la Terre sont appliquées à la Médecine. Des méthodes de minéralogie, géochimie et spectro-microscopie sont par exemple appliquées à l’étude de questions médicales variées.
