The Astrophysical Plasma Modeling team aims to understand astrophysical processes driven by gravity, radiative hydrodynamics, and magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), and to characterize their observable consequences.
The "Cosmology and Galaxy Evolution" team focuses on the study of the formation, evolution, and physical properties of large cosmological structures, galaxy clusters, galaxies themselves, and their internal structures, extending to large-scale star formation.
The theme of the Universe's energy content, primarily focused on questions of dark matter, dark energy, and gravity, is a rapidly growing activity within the Cosmology and Statistics team, reflected by leading contributions to major international collaborations.
The AIM "Dynamics of Stars, Exoplanets and their Environment" team aims to develop cutting-edge research to understand the internal and external structure, dynamics, and evolution of the Sun, stars, and planets, as well as the atmospheres of exoplanets.
The scientific objective of the High Energy Cosmic Phenomena team is the discovery, characterization, classification, and understanding—from the perspective of fundamental physics—of the most energetic and violent astrophysical phenomena.
The Quality and Space Integration team supports space projects in terms of Product Assurance and Quality Assurance, as well as AIT (Assembly, Integration, and Testing) activities throughout the development and implementation phases.
The Interface Science and Space Instruments team is at the interface between science and space instruments from design phases to operational flight.
The Space Systems and Architectures team is responsible for system architecture definition and technical oversight throughout the design, development, and testing of various instrument models.
The "Spectro-Imagers for Space" team conducts R&D on detectors ranging from the far infrared to gamma-ray wavelengths, including bolometers, microcalorimeters, CMOS-MCT, or semiconductors for X-rays and gamma rays.
It can be argued that the astrophysical quest for our origins rests on two pillars: the formation of large structures into galaxies and the formation of stellar systems.
The Space Electronics Systems Design and Development team is responsible for defining, designing, and developing embedded electronic equipment.
