Ce cours est une introduction aux phénomènes critiques géométriques aléatoires et leurs description par des techniques algébriques et probabilistiques et par des théories des champs quantiques. 

This is the follow-up couse to the quantum field theory class of the first semester. Topics we will cover include non-abelian gauge symmetry, spontaneous symmetry breaking, and the Higgs mechanism, all needed to understand the inner workings of the Standard Model, which we shall discuss in some detail.

The aim of this course is to introduce the most important topics needed to understand how we can test the Standard Model, then why and how we must go beyond it. It is aimed not just at future practitioners, but at anyone wanting to study High Energy Physics. 

A Dark Matter Journey from Particle Physics to Modern Cosmology.

The purpose of these lectures is to provide the basis on modern theoretical cosmology. 

La théorie des groupes et de leurs représentations est un sujet central et transverse qui étudie les symétries telles qu’elles apparaissent en mathématiques et dans les sciences en général, notamment en physique.

The goal of this course is to introduce the main concepts and challenges of quantum computing, a new set of technologies and techniques that promise to solve hard computational problems.

The aim of this lecture is to provide a description of quantum transport in disordered systems, with an emphasis on important phenomena like weak localization, Anderson localization and the Anderson metal-insulator transition. During the lecture, a number of important theoretical tools needed to describe quantum particle scattering in the presence of spatial disorder will be introduced in a pedagogical fashion, such as the Green's function technique, diagrammatic approaches to weak localization and transfer matrices. The lectures will be also illustrated by experimental examples and tutorials, especially taken from the physics of quantum gases and  condensed matter.

Atoms and photons are the quantum probes that enable some of mankind’s most precise measurements. 

Since the 80’s, laser cooling has enabled the production of sub-milliKelvin dilute atomic gases - which can be further cooled to the nanoKelvin regime.
