Description

(1) Astroparticle In AMS-02: the way to combine astrophysics and particle physics. Jonathan Pochon AMS-02 is a typical particle detector designed for space environment.The main goal of this experiment is the cosmic rays study from the GeV to TeV, for gamma, protons, electrons and nuclei. These abilities will give us a complete view of the cosmic rays for these energies, and a possibility to constraint some physics field. I will illustrate in the case of the dark matter context the motivation of this kind of detector. (2) Brown Dwarf Disks in the TW Hydrae Association.
