The JEM-EUSO collaboration develops a series of balloon and orbital telescopes to detect transient UV emission from the Earth atmosphere, with the primary goal to study ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays from space. These detectors are wide field-of-view telescopes with high temporal resolution (1-2.5 μs) and sensitivity provided by a large aperture. One of these detectors is currently operating...
Recent developments in heavy ions production increased access to alpha-emitting radioisotopes and opened the door to their use in internal radiotherapy[1]. Targeted alpha therapy is of interest for dedicated applications such as the treatment of disseminated brain metastases[2][3], their radiation range in biological matter covering only a few dozens of micrometers. However, when...
Actuellement, les radiothérapies les plus conventionnelles utilisées pour le traitement du cancer induisent des effets délétères dans le corps humain, et plus spécifiquement lorsque la tumeur cible est proche d’organes à risque.
L’utilisation de protons ou d’ions Carbonne (hadronthérapie) plutôt que des rayons X (thérapies plus conventionnelles), permet de délivrer une dose plus conforme à...
Searches for electric dipole moments (EDMs) of spin 1/2 particles such as the neutron are sensitive probes for CP
violation beyond the standard model, a key to solving the baryon asymmetry problem. In this presentation I give a
brief overview of n2EDM, an experiment aiming to measure the neutron EDM with a sensitivity of 1 × 10−27e.cm.
I then focus on two areas of my PhD work related to...
In-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy with high-velocity recoil nuclei requires very accurate Doppler correction. The Advanced GAmma Tracking Array (AGATA) is a new generation gamma-ray spectrometer that is capable of tracking gamma-rays with up to 5mm resolution which allows for accurate Doppler correction. AGATA is made of high-purity germanium crystals (about 50 available so far) assembled to form...
L'imagerie médicale nucléaire est une méthode qui consiste à suivre des médicaments radiomarqués utilisés pour créer des images dans le but de diagnostic, de suivi thérapeutique ou de recherche. La réduction de l'activité radio pharmaceutique appliquée au patient et le raccourcissement du temps d'exposition sont deux indicateurs cruciaux pour guider les améliorations de l'imagerie en médecine...
