How to tame the light? (Replay)
By: Caroline Lachowsky
Meeting with the Nobel Prize winner in physics Claude Cohen-Tannoudji who does us the honor and the pleasure of his presence to share his extraordinary journey: that of a kid from Constantine and Algiers who became one of the most eminent physicists of the quantum world, of the interactions between matter and light, and of the cooling and confinement of atoms by laser, which in 1997 earned him the Nobel Prize.
Publicity
A generous passion for research, which he derives from his masters to whom he pays homage (in particular Alfred Kastler, also Nobel Prize in Physics). A passion that Claude Cohen-Tannoudji transmitted to his students and, in particular, to Serge Haroche, also winner of the Nobel Prize in physics.
→ Claude Cohen-Tannoudji's work, Under the Sign of Light , was published by Odile Jacob.
