  • 30 March 2010 - Antoine Llebaria (LAM): "Restitution of multiple overlaid components on extremely long series of solar corona images" Summary: This talk will describe the methods used to accurately disentangle the components observed on the set of solar corona images provided during 12 years by the LASCO-C2 coronographs. Based on the specific temporal and spatial characteristics of each component we have been able to disentangle on this 3D set of data, the K-corona (due to coronal electrons by Thompson effect ), the F-corona (due to interplanetary dust by Mie scattering) and the stray light (due to the instrument itself). Some astrophysical consequences of results must be briefly discussed.
  • 20 April 2010 - Christophe Adami (LAM): "The DAFT/FADA Survey: Status and Early Results from First Epoch Data"
  • 4 May 2010 - Ron Buta (Alabama): "Galaxy Morphology and Classification in the Mid-Infrared from S4G" The Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G, Sheth et al. 2010) is a comprehensive survey of 2,331 galaxies in the 3.6 and 4.5 micron IRAC bands of the Spitzer Space Telescope. One of the goals of the project is the derivation of RC3-like parameters of galaxies in the mid-IR, including galaxy morphology as interpreted in the framework of the de Vaucouleurs revised Hubble-Sandage classification system. The IRAC 3.6 and 4.5 micron bands are sensitive mainly to the older stellar component, and provide the most dust-penetrated views of all types of galaxies. This penetration of dust can cause drastic changes in appearance between blue and mid-IR images. Nevertheless, these are the exception. The subtleties of blue light galaxy morphology carry well enough into the mid-IR 3.6 micron band that for many galaxies, the blue and 3.6 micron morphologies are similar. I will describe a detailed morphological study of a subset of 200 galaxies based on archival 3.6 micron Spitzer images that have been processed through the S4G pipeline.
  • 18 May 2010 - Benjamin Gardes (LAM): "Photometric calibration of the LASCO-C2 coronograph for solar sytem objects" In this demostration I will introduce you the method to determine the photometric calibration of the LASCO-C2 coronograph images for solar system objects based on the extensive analysis of all stars down to the magnitude V = 8 that have transited in its field-of-view since the past 14 years (1996-2009). An automatic procedure has been developed to detect those stars and to measure their magnitudes providing statistics for more than 250 000 images. Using 4 different aperture windows I have first estimated the Zero Points of the photometric transformation between LASCO-C2 magnitudes for the Orange filter and standard V magnitudes and then derived the calibration factor for the surface photometry of extended sources. Finally, we will see how the sensitivity of the instrument behaves along the mission.

We will finally present the RAPID project and the concept of photon counting avalanche photodiode CMOS device (in collaboration with CEA-LETI) which is foreseen to be the ultimate detector for the visible-IR range providing no readout noise, high QE and extremely fast readout.
