Ecole Internationale d’Astrophysique Daniel Chalonge-Hector de Vega :

The Chalonge de Vega Meudon Workshop 2016

Warm Dark Matter Astrophysics in Agreement with Observations and keV Sterile Neutrinos

Place: CIAS Chateau de Meudon, Observatoire de Paris at Meudon

Dates: 15, 16 and 17 June 2016

URL: http://chalonge.obspm.fr/Cias_Meudon2016.html

Registration and call for papers on Warm Dark Matter is Open.

Early registration is strongly encouradged.

So far, not a single valid objection arose against WDM.

A Turning Point operated recently in the Dark Matter research: Warm Dark Matter (WDM) emerged impressively over Cold Dark Matter (CDM) as the leading Dark Matter candidate. WDM solves naturally the problems of CDM and CDM + baryons , provides the same large scale and CMB results than ΛCDM and agrees with the observations at the galactic and small scales.

Warm Dark Matter (WDM) is hot topic in galaxies and cosmology and implies novelties in the astrophysical, cosmological, particle physics and nuclear physics context. Warm Dark Matter Cosmology (LambdaWDM) is more complete, correct and general theory than Cold Dark Matter (LambdaCDM) since it reproduces LambdaCDM at large scales and solves all the problems of CDM at small and intermediate scales.

This workshop addresses the last progresses in WDM, including its distribution function and equation of state, the quantum mechanical framework to galaxy structure reproducing the observed galaxy cores and their sizes and the dwarf galaxies.

This workshop puts together astrophysical, cosmological, particle and nuclear WDM, astronomical observations, theory and WDM analytical and numerical frameworks which reproduce the observations. The Workshop addresses as well the theorical and experimental search for the leading WDM particle candidate: keV sterile neutrinos.

The recent impact of WDM astrophysics, its signatures and constraints with high redshift galaxies, clusters, cosmic recombinantion, 21 cm, with or for the JWST, HST, SKA, AstroH and gravitationnal lensing will be treated.

Looking forward to Welcome you in Meudon at the Workshop

Ecole Daniel Chalonge

http://chalonge.obspm.fr/

The International School “Daniel Chalonge” has awarded the Daniel Chalonge Medal 2015 to Héctor J. de Vega,the greatest pillar of the School in all the School aspects and values, science with great intellectual endeavour and a human face.

Emeritus research director at the CNRS, LPTHE UPMC Paris, and associated to LERMA Observatoire de Paris. Outstanding theoretical physicist, physicist of the universe, an independent mind, with major coherence and intellectual strength, personal and scientific prestige, honesty and integrity, he worked tirelessly, wearing very high the values of Science and of the Chalonge School where he excelled in all the aspects.

He developed several scientific lives with pioneering research in different specialities and great vision of thematic evolution: Quantum field theory, integrable models, particle physics and statistical physics, string theory, cosmology, theory of inflation confronted to the cosmic microwave background observations, warm dark matter in galaxies, sterile neutrinos, with innovative sophisticated methods and powerful analytical computations. In all these areas, he formed students, post-doctoral and young researchers, trained generations of physicists and cosmologists over the world, and developped many important international collaborations.

And in the words of Gerard Gilmore (Fellow of the UK Royal Society and Chalonge Medal laureat 2013) on the 23th July 2015:
“Héctor de Vega, a really nice person”

In the words of Dr Nadia Charbit Blumenfeld (daughter of Henry and Kathleen Blumenfeld, grand daughter of Erwin Blumenfeld) and author of a photo-portrait:
“Héctor de Vega, the gentleman of Science”

In the words of George Smoot on the 24th July 2015 during the tribute to Héctor de Vega : “I shared an office with him here (room 705) : He was always disponible, good feeling , discussing science and what was going on”.
Unfortunately, is not possible in this short notice to reproduce all other testimonies of the participants , but they are all well registered and deeply acknowlodged.

Eleven Chalonge Medals awarded in the 24 years of the school history, of which four Nobel prize of physics in the astrophysics-cosmology discipline :

1991: Subramanyan Chandrasekhar, Nobel Prize of Physics.
1992: Bruno Pontecorvo.
2006: George Smoot, Nobel Prize of Physics.
2007: Carlos Frenk.
2008: Anthony Lasenby.
2008: Bernard Sadoulet, Fellow of the USA Academy of Arts and Sciences.
2009: Peter Biermann.
2011: John Mather, Nobel Prize of Physics.
2012: Brian Schmidt, Nobel Prize of Physics.
2013: Gerard Gilmore, Fellow of the UK Royal Society.
2015 : Héctor de Vega.

Science with great intellectual endeavour and a human face. True and healthy science. Outstanding scientists who are gentlepersons. Scientists recipients of the Daniel Chalonge Medal are Ambassadors of the School.

With the Chalonge Medal to Héctor de Vega, the International School Daniel Chalonge honors its scientific and human milestone. The 2015 school program is dedicated to him, tributes have been paid on the 18th May, on the 21 May in the spring open session of scientific culture “L’Homme et l’Univers, Dernières Nouvelles de l’Univers”, in the last Warm Dark Matter Chalonge Meudon CIAS Workshop in June 2015, in the 19th Paris Cosmology Colloquium 2015, and the tributes will continue in the same way, lively, that is to say, by working doing scientific research.

A surprise Award

The Chalonge medal is a totally surprise award. The medal was awarded to Héctor de Vega on the 24th July 2015 during the open session of the 19th Paris Cosmology Colloquium 2015 on the meridian of Paris, at the Paris Observatory (Observatoire de Paris), in the presence of many distinguished and renewed scientists, among them four laureats of the Daniel Chalonge medal: George Smoot, Nobel prize of physics, Anthony Lasenby, Peter Biermann, Gerard Gilmore, and of very important scientific personalities from the world over, among them physicist Alba Zanini from the INFN, Ambassador of the city of Turin for Science and scientific culture and Ambassador of the Chalonge School.

Congratulations: Scientists from over the world participated to the event on the meridian of Paris and warmely congratulated the awarded Medal

Chalonge School Autumn Open Session of Scientific Culture
Title: “Interdisciplinarity and Latest news of the Universe anticipated”

Thursday 28 November, at the Observatoire de Paris, in the historic Perrault building, will take place the Autumn session of scientific culture of the International Astrophysical School Daniel Chalonge.

This session provides salient findings of the 2013 program and a preview of the program for the year 2014. It is open to all interested parties: specialists and non-specialists, students, mediators and journalists. It brings together researchers from different disciplines and various personalities.

The program:

– The statement of the standard model of the universe: what the data tell us and what they continue to tell: understanding the physics and the direction in which the data are pointing.
– The latest scientific anticipated news of the universe, dark matter, galaxies, black holes, dark energy, sterile neutrinos.
– Linguistic and epistemology in science communication
– Missions in extreme environments
– Science and technology: information, memory, history.
– Daniel Chalonge (1897-1977): from the Observatoire de Paris to the IAP.
– Jean Prouve’ (1901-1984): from Nancy to the Observatoire de Paris and the OHP.
– Man Ray (1890-1976) “at the time of the Observatory”
– Erwin Blumenfeld (1897-1969) at the Jeu de Paume.
– The Blumenfeld family at the Ecole Daniel Chalonge.

Speakers:

Nadia Charbit Blumenfeld (medical doctor, doctor in sciences, grand daughter of Erwin Blumenfeld, Paris) and
Henry Blumenfeld (CEA emerite physicist, son of Erwin Blumenfeld, Gif- sur-Yvette), Hector J. Vega (Director of Research at CNRS -UPMC LPTHE and LERMA , Observatoire de Paris, Paris), Jaime Helios (Linguist, epistemologist, doctor in comparative literature University of Paris-Sorbonne, Paris), Norma G. Sanchez (Director of Research at CNRS, Observatoire de Paris LERMA, director of the International School Daniel Chalonge, Paris), François Sevre (Engineer at the IAP, Paris), Alba Zanini (physicist at the INFN-Turin, Ambassador of the City of Turin for science and culture, Turin)
