The "Econophysics & Complex systems" Chair awards for the first time its "CFM Women in Quantitative Finance" PhD scholarship to Cécilia Aubrun so that she can carry out her research on endogenous liquidity crises. This scholarship encourages research excellence and gives visibility to young woman researchers in this field.
How to reproduce the human, emotional perception of an image? This is the issue addressed by Maks Ovsjanikov, professor at the Computer Science Laboratory at X and his colleagues at Stanford and KAUST. They created the ArtEmis project to allow algorithms to learn how to reproduce human emotions when faced with artworks.
Studying air pollution using miniature sensors: a research team from the Laboratory of Interface and Thin Film Physics has shown that they are capable of detecting very low concentrations of nitrogen dioxide. Their work, funded by the André Citroën Chair, has been published in Nanoscale Advances.
Study the morphology of space plasma jets or the properties of exoplanets? Spatial phenomena - which are inaccessible to experimentation - are reproduced on a small scale at LULI and allow us to refine the theories on these distant objects. Two studies were published in the scientific journal Nature Communications this month.
Could salt caverns - already used to store natural gas - become the hydrogen reserves of the future? This is the question that Pierre Bérest, Emeritus Professor at École Polytechnique in the Solid Mechanics Laboratory, is working on.
A report released on Wednesday details the conditions for French electricity to come from renewable energy sources in 2050. A MOOC from École polytechnique helps to get a better understanding of the challenges of renewable energies integration for the electricity grid.
Space missions will follow one another in 2021 in a new odyssey. An opportunity to take stock of l'X research and initiatives to explore the boundaries of this new frontier.
The XCAN laser prototype paves the way to new possibilities by proposing the first digital laser, opening up incredible perspectives for shaping spatial and temporal distributions of light.
While it is obvious that plants adapt their growth to the wind, the mechanisms of wind perception still need to be elucidated. In their study, Jean-Marc Allain, Jean-Marie Frachisse and Bruno Moulia, highlight a receptor that transduces movement induced by the wind into an electrical signal at the cellular level.
A gas target called SMOG2 was installed at CERN this summer and will allow the LHCb detector to record new heavy ion collisions in order to better understand quarks and gluons plasma and the strong interaction. The Leprince Ringuet Laboratory, the precursor of this physics program, will be at the forefront of these studies.
Mercedes Pelegrín García, a young researcher from the “Integrated Urban Mobility” Chair, has been awarded by two renowned international societies on Operational Research. These prizes are awarded for her PhD dissertation and her trajectory as a young researcher.
190 scientists from 25 countries have produced the first regional report on climate in the Mediterranean. Focusing on countries around the Mediterranean where the speed of climate change is faster than global trends, the report assesses the best scientific knowledge and associated risks in the region.
This year, the CNRS awards 4 "Talents" medals for researchers, engineers and technicians in our laboratories: Silver medal for Silke Biermann, Bronze medal for Nathanaelle Schneider, Crystal medal for Dimitri Edouart and Collective Crystal for the technical team of the Apollo Research Infrastructure.
The French National Research Agency has selected Pierre Boyer's TAXREV project for its "Young Researchers" 2020 program. By analyzing “Tax reforms and revolts in democracies”, his objective is to analyze the tensions between economically optimal and politically feasible tax systems.
