When the "M" meets the "P" at IRMP 2017

Thursday 14 Dec 2017, 15:00 → 19:30 Europe/Brussels

CYCL01 (Cyclotron)

Christian Hagendorf (Université Catholique de Louvain), Claude Duhr (Université catholique de Louvain), Pierre-Emmanuel Caprace (UCLouvain)

The idea of the meeting is to bring together the mathematicians and physicists of our institute, and stimulate exchanges between the two communities. The event will consist of two colloquium talks and a poster session, followed by a reception. The best posters in mathematics and physics will both be rewarded with a prize. This year's speakers and talks are Prof. Tommaso Dorigo (INFN Padova): “Fundamental Statistics for Discoveries in Fundamental Physics” Prof. Jean Doyen (Université Libre de Bruxelles): “Prime numbers, the infinite random graph and the structure of the Universe according to Leibniz”  The topics of these talks lie at the interface between mathematics and physics. Their presentations will be accessible to both mathematicians and physicist.
