QUADMARTS is an international researched networks (IRN) sponsored by the CNRS, the University of Rennes and other partner institutions, which is dedicated to new methods and applications for product determination in elementary reactions and photodissociation processes with applications at low and high temperatures for astrochemistry, atmospheric chemistry and combustion. In the last years, experimental devices as well as theoretical tools have been developed to quantitatively address the issue of product branching ratios under a large variety of physical conditions in the different scientific communities cited above. From an experimental point of view, quantitative information can be obtained by several approaches, including photoionization or electron spectroscopy combined with mass spectrometry, optical spectroscopy and microwave spectroscopy.
The QUADMARTS school
The aim of this school is to explore fundamental concepts common to various scientific fields, spanning environment, combustion, energy, and astrophysics using an interdisciplinary approach. Internationally renowned scientists will present the most advanced theoretical tools and state-of-the-art experimental techniques aimed at current scientific issues, including how such data can be used to model these gaseous systems. Particular emphasis will be placed on the challenges of modeling complex environments, including: the amount of data required, and methods to reduce data to the most influential components, extrapolate it effectively, and account for uncertainties in model prediction. Finally, the scientists will present their vision of the major challenges ahead with ample time for discussion and interaction among participants.
The 'Teachers' page provides information on the teachers involved in the school.
