Variable renewable energies such as wind and solar power are expected to become the main contributors to the world's power systems as a large number of countries, including France, set ambitious targets to achieve carbon neutrality.In a long-awaited joint report commissioned by the Ministry of …

An international team has published a study in the journal Nature analyzing how the quantum phenomenon of superfluorescence appears in perovskite materials. The Irradiated Solids Laboratory (LSI*) is involved, thanks in particular to the work of Antonia Ghita, a former student of École polytechniqu…

"Currently, most language generation algorithms are based on deterministic neural networks, resulting in word sequence decoding mechanisms that produce either degenerate or simplified and overly generic language." This is the problem that guides the work of Alice Martin, a young researche…

Launched by the SNCF group, the École polytechnique and the Fondation de l'École polytechnique, this new teaching and research chair will develop innovative AI-based technologies to improve the quality and sustainability of transport. It will involve Polytechnique engineering students in the challe…

Developed within the EuroTeQ Engineering University project, an innovative learning format enters École Polytechnique’s course catalog and brings students, faculty, and industry partners together around concrete environmental challenges.

École Polytechnique is continuing to adapt its historic curriculum, the ingénieur polytechnicien program, to contemporary societal and sovereignty issues. A new course entitled “Global Equilibria, Sovereignty and Defense Issues” for 1st year students began on April 18, 2024.

Marc Gillmann is the new Director of Entrepreneurship and Innovation at École Polytechnique. His mission is to consolidate the success, appeal, and influence of the X-Novation Center, which includes École Polytechnique's incubator, as well as a Fablab, and multiple services related to innovation.

At the Laboratory of Condensed Matter for Physics (PMC*), a team has successfully determined the spin-dependent electronic structure linked to the presence of defects in the arrangement of atoms in a semiconductor. This is the first time that this structure has been measured. The results are publis…

How to monitor continuously but without disturbing them charged particle beams like those used in proton therapy? By interposing as little material as possible! These are 1.5 micrometers (0.00015cm) membranes on which strips of 50 nanometers are deposited which form the new ultra-thin monitor devel…
