What is happening in Titan’s equatorial belt?

E1 : Formation of dunes and climate on Titan, Exploratory Project, I6: From dust to planets, Interface Project, News, Spotlight!

During the last thirteen years (2004 – 2017), the Cassini-Huygens mission allowed a real revolution in the exploration of Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. This mission has revealed that Titan is – in many aspects – very similar to Earth. Titan is a frozen version of Earth, where methane behaves as water, and water ice may be as hard […]

A French Advanced Virgo + day is organized on May 31 in Paris (ENS, 24 rue Lhomond). It will be an opportunity to present the instrumental evolutions envisaged for Advanced Virgo, as well as the science that will then be accessible and the evolution of the data analysis that will be necessary. This day is open to all those who […]

MICROSCOPE satellite test of general relativity: No deviations from the equivalence principle at the 10⁻¹⁴ level

E8 Modified Gravity from the Earth’s outskirts to the cosmos, Exploratory Project, News

While the best measure of the principle of equivalence had not been exceeded for 10 years, the first results of the CNES MICROSCOPE satellite, equipped with ONERA accelerometers, make it possible today to be 10 times better. They demonstrate, with unparalleled precision, 2.10-14, that bodies fall into emptiness with the same acceleration. The principle of equivalence remains at this unshakable […]
