Massive evaluation and analysis of Poincaré recurrences
We present a novel numerical method aimed to characterize global behaviour, in particular chaotic diffusion, in dynamical systems. It is based on an analysis of the Poincaré recurrence statistics on massive grids of initial data or values of parameters. We concentrate on Hamiltonian systems, ...
BDB - Binary star DataBase
The Binary star DataBase (BDB) is the database of binary/multiple stellar systems of various observational types. BDB contains data on physical and positional parameters of 260,000 components of 120,000 stellar systems of multiplicity 2 to more than 20, taken from a large variety of published ...
Regional desert dust and climate modeling in North Equatorial Africa : a 21-year WRF-CHIMERE simulation exercise
CHIMERE is a chemistry-transport model recently implemented in our laboratory. CHIMERE is able to model all kind of gaseous and aerosol species, the version used here being specifically adapted to simulate the emissions, transport and deposition of desert dust. We used two nested domains, namely ...
