The AGE-PRO collaboration, bringing together astronomers from Europe, America, and Asia, has unveiled news constraints on the evolution of dust and gas in protoplanetary disks thanks to an ambitious ALMA program targeting 30 sources. Through combined analyses of dust thermal emission and gas spectral lines, it appears that the gas reservoir available to form giant planets evolves more slowly than the dust reservoir.
The Simons Observatory (SO has reached a significant milestone with the successful installation of its Large Aperture Telescope (LAT).
At midday on Wednesday March 19, 2025, ESA released the first survey data from the Euclid space mission.
Dan Pineau, from the AMIS team, brilliantly defended his thesis on the fusion of imaging and spectroscopy data, with application to JWST data. Thesis carried out under the supervision of Alain Abergel (IAS) and François Orieux (L2S). He is now a new doctor at the University of Paris-Saclay, and will be heading for Luxembourg. Congratulations to him!
Congratulations to Marion Zannese on winning the Prix Jeunes Talents France For Women In Science 2024 from the L'Oréal-UNESCO Foundation!
Marion Zannese, who defended her thesis on 26 September entitled ‘High excitation of molecules in irradiated regions of star and planetary formation observed with the James Webb Space Telescope’, under the supervision of Émilie Habart and Benoit Tabone, is now a post-doctoral fellow at the IAS, where she will continue her work on the study of irradiated regions of star and planetary formation with the JWST.
