Le Club Optique Micro-ondes compte aujourd’hui environ 150 membres d’une trentaine d’équipes françaises constituant un réseau de chercheurs dans lequel s’impliquent industriels et académiques du domaine à l’interface de l’optique-photonique, des hyperfréquences et du millimétrique. Ce club se réunit une fois par an à l’occasion d’une journée au cours de laquelle des communications sous forme de présentations orales ou d’affiches animent les échanges.

Thématiques de la journée :
Dispositifs optoélectroniques à haut-débit
Photonique intégrée et micro-ondes
Techniques photoniques pour la génération et la distribution de signaux micro-ondes
Traitement, détection et mesure par des systèmes optiques micro-ondes
Techniques et applications photoniques micro-ondes, THz et Antennes
Techniques radio sur fibre, communications fibrées – sans fil, et 5G
Photonique micro-ondes dans les systèmes embarqués
Oscillateurs et Métrologie

NASA’s From Quantum to Cosmos-7 Workshop will be held in person Mar 29-31, 2022, at the Watergate Hotel, 2650 Virginia Ave NW, Washington, DC 20037, USA. This will continue the tradition of Q2C workshops started in 2006.

Detailed information is contained in the attached Flyer.

The workshop website – http://icpi.nasaprs.com/FPWS2022 – includes detailed registration, abstract submission, and venue information. Please take a moment to register your interest for the workshop. There is no registration fee to participate.

Abstract Deadline is Jan 31, 2022 and presentation acceptance letters will be sent Feb 28, 2022.

The Biological and Physical Sciences (BPS) Division of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate (SMD) will hold a workshop on June 17, 2021, at 8-11 am Pacific Time (15-18 UTC) with two principal goals: (i) seeking community input on possible future missions focused on precision measurements/tests of fundamental physics using high performance clocks in space and (ii) organizing the preparation of white papers in response to the upcoming Call from the Decadal Survey Committee. Central to the discussion will be a recent mission concept (Fundamental physics with an Optical Clock Orbiting in Space) that proposes to place an optical clock in an elliptical orbit to test General Relativity, but all types of clocks-in-space-based fundamental physics research are encouraged (gravitational wave detection, dark matter searches, drifts of fundamental constants, etc.). Also encouraged will be the development of essential supporting technologies including time transfer, optical clocks, and space-qualifiable lasers.

The Workshop will begin with several brief presentations on science possibilities for optical clocks in space with generous time allotted for follow-up questions and discussions. We will conclude this first session with a presentation on the FOCOS mission concept followed by discussion. Following a short overview on the white paper process, we will then have break-out sessions focused on organizing authors and topics for potential white paper submissions. NASA/JPL scientists will be on hand to answer questions.

Attendees are encouraged to register one week in advance and submit one PowerPoint slide describing their white paper focus interests, which they will be able to present during the break-out sessions. The slides will be used to help organize the break-out sessions around the topics of greatest interest to the attendees and to jump start the white paper process.

Expected Workshop output: We hope the workshop will help to generate many interesting and high quality white paper submissions in the space clock science area as well as to identify potential lead authors for various topic areas.
