Montpellier Universe and Particles Laboratory (LUPM)

UMR 5299

The Montpellier Universe and Particles Laboratory (LUPM) is dedicated to the study of the Universe in its entirety or in its smallest dimensions. At LUPM, researchers and teacher-researchers study the 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, LUPM's field of research is vast, covering major areas of theoretical physics, fundamental and observational astrophysics, such as the physics of the primordial universe, the study of the properties of elementary particles, the nature of dark matter, the objects at the origin 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.
