How is a physical theory built? How does it evolve? I am going to tell you the story of Statistical Physics, covering the main discoveries and inventions that have paved its foundations (like paradoxes…). This discipline of Physics is undoubtedly the one that has mutated the most since its beginnings with Thermodynamics. I think it is enlightening to look at it to understand what we are doing in Physics. My talk is aimed at a wide audience and ther is no need for any prerequisites.
I hope you enjoy it!

 


Le séminaire des doctorant⋅es de l’I2M et du CPT à Luminy regroupe chaque semaine les doctorant⋅es du site autour d’un exposé plus ou moins (in)formel, dans un cadre convivial. Il est évidemment ouvert aux étudiant⋅es de master et aux doctorant⋅es d’autres laboratoires.

Pour le moment, le séminaire a lieu dans la salle 500-504b du TPR2, au 5ème étage.
