The FIRST-TF research federation (LabEx) is organizing two events for the French Time-Frequency community: its general assembly and a workshop on a current topic in the field of Time-Frequency (Digital Electronics and Artificial Intelligence for Time-Frequency—to be confirmed).

These events will provide an opportunity for a broad community to come together, engage in scientific discussions, and learn about FIRST-TF’s activities.
The various events will take place in Paris at the Cordeliers campus (15 rue de l’École-de-médecine, 75006 Paris).
Tours of time-frequency-related laboratories will be offered by the laboratories on Paris’s Rive Gauche (MONARIS, LKB—Jussieu and ENS sites).

The dates, announced in April in the FIRST-TF newsletter, are confirmed:
– October 1 and 2, 2026

Program details will be available at a later date

The schedule for the FIRST-TF General Assembly and the associated workshop is coordinated with the REFIMEVE General Assembly (https://www.refimeve.fr/), scheduled for September 29 and 30 at the Paris-Saclay campus, to allow participants interested in both events to plan a single trip to the Paris region.

A website (https://agfisttf2026.sciencesconf.org) will launch soon, with more detailed information on the program and registration procedures

“Quand l’IA rencontre la physique“ Workshop (July 3, 2026). Organized by CNRS Physique, this workshop aims to present applications of AI in physics, showcase concrete use cases, and explore future developments. Designed for non-specialists, it aims to encourage physicists to explore the opportunities that AI could offer in their own field today, without necessarily requiring insurmountable efforts.

Two days of talks and networking bringing the WR Community together.

If you would like to present, please send up an email to bureau@white-rabbit.tech by the 30th of April with the title and abstract of your talk.

Registration is now open for the spring colloquium Measurement of fundamental constants and searches for physics beyond the Standard Model.

The colloquium will take place on 9-10 April 2026, at the Jussieu campus of Sorbonne Université in Paris. Attendance is free of charge, and lunch will be served on the spot.

The program and registration link are available on the colloquium website : https://precision2026.sciencesconf.org/registration?lang=en.

Should you have any question regarding the colloquium, you can contact: vincent.barbe@lkb.upmc.fr

This workshop, supported and funded by the CNRS (MITI and RdEi, the CNRS National Network of Electronics Engineers and Instrumentalists), is offered by the RdEi’s XILINX Working Group.

On behalf of the organizing committee, I am pleased to announce the opening of registration for the REFIMEVE 2025 General Assembly. You can do so here:

https://agrefimeve2025.sciencesconf.org/.

For logistical reasons, the registration deadline is November 7th at 12:00 PM UTC+1. Registration is free but mandatory, even for guests.

On the General Assembly website, you will find the full program, which includes laboratory visits on the morning of the second day. These will be organized into three parallel groups, including a visit to LIPhy. You are invited to prioritize the second laboratory on campus from among three options: IRAM, IPAG, and ISTERRE.

We are organizing an Aspen Center for Physics (ACP) winter workshop on Fundamental Physics in Space with Quantum Sensors, to be held February 22-27, 2026 in Aspen, Colorado, USA. The goal of this workshop is to bring together the fundamental physics, quantum sensor, and space instrument communities in order to brainstorm ideas for space missions with quantum sensors that can shed light on physics beyond the Standard Model. For more information, please see our conference website:

We hope that you will join us for the workshop! Please also forward this message to colleagues and team members who may be interested, especially postdocs and graduate students who are not on this email list.

All interested participants must apply to attend the workshop through the ACP website:
https://aspenphys.org/winter/winter-application-process
The application portal is open now, and applications must be submitted before the portal closes on September 15. Contributed talks and posters are encouraged.
