RESEARCH ACTIVITY
Study of the microscopic dynamics in hydrogen bonded molecular solids and of the microscopic structure in simple and quantum fluids; complex systems of biological interest (water, confined water, micelles, biological macromolecules, proteins, fibrils, membranes for hydrogen separation). High resolution neutron, X and infrared spectroscopy techniques. High pressure in liquids. Diagnostics of Cultural Heritage (marbles, ceramics, bronzes) with neutron spectroscopy. Development of instrumentation in the field of neutron spectroscopy (neutron detectors and simulations)

Research activity carried out at the European research infrastructures (STFC ISIS neutron source – UK; ILL (Institut Laue-Langevin) – FR; Laboratoire Leon Brillouin, Saclay – FR; SOLEIL, Synchrotron Radiation Facility, Saclay- FR, LURE Orsay -FR )

Other activities:
