The Institut Polytechnique de Paris (IP Paris) is developing an ambitious innovation policy in order to increase its societal impact. In this context, IP Paris has launched its third call for projects to detect and support innovative projects from its...

Olivier Spitz was awarded a thesis prize by the Direction Générale de l’Armement (France’s defence procurement agency), for his work on the use of quantum cascade lasers for secure chaos communications.

Constance Duchesne was awarded a thesis prize by the Direction Générale de l’Armement (France’s defence procurement agency) for her work on cold plasma treatment for the healing and disinfection of skin burns.

On October 8 and 9, 2021, 200 researchers and doctoral students from the Institut Polytechnique de Paris welcomed more than 1,000 middle and high school students, families and visitors to discover science through fun and creative activities.

Apollon, one of the most powerful lasers in the world, will be fully available to users next year. This is the final chapter for the project launched in 2009 and led by a team from the Laboratory for the Use of Intense Lasers (LULI). On the occasion of...

The Double Master’s degree program in High Energy Physics will allow students to benefit from academic education at both partner institutions and to gain research practice during the two-year program.

Plasma, considered to be the fourth state of matter, represents more than 99% of the visible universe. Plasma plays an important role in astrophysics and space physics, but today it is also present in our daily lives, used in particular to produce...
