Montpellier Universe and Particles Laboratory (LUPM)
Content type: Page
The Montpellier Universe and Particles Laboratory (LUPM) is dedicated to the study of the Universe as a whole and in its smallest dimensions. At LUPM, researchers and faculty members study fundamental constituents—from the most elementary particles, atoms, and molecules to the largest and oldest gravitational structures, such as stars and galaxies. Organized into three scientific teams, the LUPM’s research scope is very broad and covers major areas of theoretical physics, as well as fundamental and observational astrophysics—including the physics of the early universe, the study of elementary particle properties, the nature of dark matter, the sources of high-energy cosmic rays, the formation of the first molecules in the Universe, the structure and evolution of stars, and their interaction with the interstellar medium.
