Nouvelle vidéo ! FRONDE GRAVITATIONNELLE, SINGULARITÉS & POINTS DE LAGRANGE.

On s’intéresse à quelques subtilités de la gravité newtonienne dans l’espace, et notamment le fait singulier qu’elle permet de se rendre à l’infini…en un temps fini !

In a sarcastic book (Histoire de l’Astronomie du dix-huitième siècle) published in 1827, Joseph Delambre writes about mathematicians:

"Les géomètres, qui ne calculent rien, s’imaginent qu’un problème est résolu quand ils l’ont renfermé dans une formule dont personne ne veut faire usage."

Wondering about the dynamics during a developmental transition? Check out our preprint “Time-dependent bistability leads to critical slowing down during floral transition in Arabidopsis”, a very exciting collaboration with the Coupland lab @mpipz.bsky.social doi.org/10.64898/202...

Active matter physics studies living beings as open, out of equilibrium, and emergent systems. In this perspective on plant morphogenesis, we show how such features arise from the basic hydromechanics of plant tissue and how to capture them in models. 🌱💧

How does the 🧠 process information?

In this review we show how to use the tools of non-equilibrium thermodynamics to understand brain dynamics in discrete and continuous state spaces

The illusion of illusions

One of the oldest myths in human history is that the Parthenon was cleverly built with curves so that it looks straight, to correct some visual illusions

In this paper I demonstrate that there are NO optical corrections in the Parthenon
