Identities of the Iron Age Population in Western Europe, origins and relation to the funerary practices – METALPOP
The Iron Age was a vibrant period including societal evolution, exchanges, the expansion of central European Celts to the West, and the establishment of colonies by the Phoenician, Greek and Carthaginian empires along the Mediterranean. It emerged in Europe as a consequence of a crisis on the Bronze
The “dematerialization” of units: from measurement sciences to the metaphysics of quantities – UNITS
The UNITS project explores one of the most fundamental yet unresolved questions in the philosophy of science: the nature of quantities. Since Galileo’s assertion that the “great book of nature is written in mathematical language” (Il Saggiatore), the quantification of physical reality has been a cor
Asymmetry, Reduction, and Quantum Field Theory - A Philosophical Investigation – ARQ
Quantum theory emerged over the past century as one of humanity’s most profound scientific achievements. Since its inception, it has generated extensive philosophical inquiry, as its conceptual structure challenges traditional views on the nature of scientific theories, the structure of scientific e
Internal gravity waves in periodic stratifications – GEOPER
The global circulation is a critical regulator of the Earth's climate processes that can be affected by the overall ocean energetics. How internal waves transport and transfer turbulent kinetic energy into mean flow potential energy is therefore a key process in the ocean. Naturally occurring double
Low-power Advanced Positioning Systems Under Study – LAPSUS
This project aims at answering the following research questions: can very low power devices be localized with an acceptable precision for years without changing (or recharging) the feeding battery through Long Range Wide Area Networks instead of Global Navigation Satellite Systems? What is the capac
Access the emergence of hydrodynamics with dileptons – AccessEmergence
Collisions between two heavy ions in particle colliders allow us to study the properties of strongly interacting matter with high energy density. Such collisions create small systems with up to a few thousand produced particles which are found to behave as fluids with remarkable properties. The e
Shining light on Superconducting collective modes in 2D transition metal dichalcogenides – SUPER2DTMD
Light control of a material’s properties is an emerging field with potentially far-reaching applications. Within this field enhancing or modifying superconductivity (SC) holds a special place ever since the discovery of a superconducting-like state in several materials well above their equilibrium S
Laser Plasma Electron Acceleration with kHz Lasers – HighRep
The general objective of the project is to push the development of a laser-plasma accelerator operating at kHz repetition rate. We wish to bring high-repetition rate laser-plasma accelerators to a higher level of maturity by enhancing significantly their beam quality and more specifically their stab
COVID19 & Lockdown: a Longitudinal Survey. – COCONEL
Analyses of the health crises which have occurred in recent decades showed that they were also social, economic and political crises which were notably fed by uncertainties about actual severity of the risk, health consequences to be feared, duration of the crisis, or reactions of the population. Pu
Origins and dynamics of oral dysbiosis associated with environmental enteric dysfunction. Preventive intervention in Central African infants – Afribiota2
To date, globally one out of four children is stunted and the current best- of -practice treatments are not able to correct for more than a third of the observed growth delays. The development of complementary, innovative interventions are therefore of utmost importance. In the Afribiota study we sh
