Workshop

Population dynamics: from rare events to evolution

From December 1, 2022 to December 2, 2022

Rare events are by definition difficult to observe, and their numerical study is all the more complex. A class of methods, "population dynamics algorithms" allowed progress in this area.

Drought is a threat for plants, as it induces gaseous embolisms which can block the circulation of sap in their veins. Recent images at the scale of single leaves have revealed that such embolisms do not invade the vein network smoothly, but rather by intermittent puffs.

Ringing Bubble Rings

On September 27, 2022

Water bubbles have a very sharp acoustic resonance frequency, as evidenced by the sound of bubbling produced in a glass when blowing through a straw. But does this resonance depend on the shape of the bubbles? Although bubbles are most often spherical, they can also be toroidal, like those produced by dolphins in their water games, which are the equivalent of our smoke rings.

Mechanisms of cancer cell migration

On June 20, 2022

The migration of cells in 3D media is a complex process and plays a key role in the development of cancers. During metastasis, cancer cells develop a strategy and a mode of migration adapted to their environment to invade other tissues. In this study, we analyzed the migration of cancer cells with different metastatic potentials in various collagen matrices.

Correlating radio signals with light

On May 19, 2022

Researchers have devised an optical architecture to calculate the correlation of radio signals in an analog way. This operation would make it possible to locate radio transmitters with precision, or to improve the performance of optical interferometry in astronomy.

Fluorescence Fluctuation Spectroscopy (FFS) is a widespread technique used to evaluate densities or concentrations of molecules, aggregates or particles in biological environments (cells, solutions, surfaces). In reality, when the species of interest are not uniformly fluorescently labeled, these techniques do not give quantitative results.

CORE DRILLS

Workshop

Core drills made in LIPhy

On March 4, 2022

The laboratory's mechanics platform has been asked to shape snow corers for the Centre National de Recherches Météorologiques.

Dense suspensions of soft particles possess relatively complex rheological properties, such as the existence of a threshold stress to flow. A new statistical physics approach allows to obtain a tensor constitutive model from the dynamics of the soft particles of the suspension, and thus to link the rheology to the anisotropy of the microstructure.
