signifiant un idéal esthétique de mesure et de rigueur, le classicisme français est le produit d’un long parcours. en fait, la doctrine classique ne s’est pas construite en un jour ou par les écrivains qui l'illustrent. les préceptes d'imitation des anciens avant que molière et racine écrivent, sont déjà élaborés; et on peut citer des ouvrages qui, s’ils ne sont pas dignes d'être appelés classi...

We present an open-source, performant, pure-python molecular dynamics (MD) suite for non-ideal plasmas. The code, Sarkas, aims to accelerate the research process by providing MD code complete with pre- and post-processing tools. Sarkas offers ease of use Python while employing Numba library obtain execution speeds comparable that compiled languages. available tools in include graphical displays...

General relativity, and its application to cosmological models such as inflation, is a remarkably beautiful and elegant theory. Yet newcomers to the field often face at least three types of challenges: conceptual, mathematical, and notational. Over the past century, physicists and mathematicians have developed a remarkably compact formalism and notation for working with general relativity, whic...

CMS is a general-purpose detector designed for use in the large hadron collider (LHC) at CERN. The electromagnetic calorimeter will play an important role in electron and photon energy measurements. The benchmark process to evaluate and optimize its performance is H −→ γγ in the intermediate mass range (90 < mH < 150 GeV). For this purpose, each element of the readout chain has to be optimized....

This article presents an overview of the electromagnetic calorimeter of the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment. This detector will be installed in the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) in 2005. This paper describes the characteristics of this homogeneous calorimeter made with PbWO4 scintillating crystals read out with avalanche photodiodes (barrel) and vacuum phototriodes (endcaps). This calorime...
