“…Since the first detection of CH molecule in interstellar medium (ISM), more than 270 molecules have been identified in various astronomical sources in ISM. These molecules include big complex ones, such as fullerene (C(60)) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are the main components of carbonaceous dust. …”

“…They show that relativity's meaning changed radically throughout the nascent years of its development, and they describe in detail the transformation of Einstein's work from the esoteric pursuit of one individual communicating with a handful of colleagues into the preoccupation of a growing community of physicists, astronomers, mathematicians, and philosophers. This handsome edition quotes extensively from Einstein's correspondence and reproduces historical documents such as newspaper articles and letters. …”

“…In this context, the nearest "ultracool dwarf" stars, i.e. stars of the lowest-mass kind, are particularly interesting targets for an exoplanet search, as their properties should make possible the detailed atmospheric characterization of temperate planets as small as the Earth -and even smaller- with upcoming astronomical facilities. In this talk, I will present SPECULOOS (Search for habitable Planets EClipsing ULtra-cOOl Stars), a new project that aims to search for terrestrial planets around the nearest ultracool dwarf stars It is based on a network of robotic telescopes whose core is the SPECULOOS-South Observatory that has just started its observations in the Atacama Desert (Chile). …”

“…Among the light elements produced during BBN, deuterium is an excellent indicator of cosmological parameters because its abundance is highly sensitive to the primordial baryon density and also depends on the number of neutrino species permeating the early Universe. Although astronomical observations of primordial deuterium abundance have reached percent accuracy, theoretical predictions based on BBN are hampered by large uncertainties on the cross-section of the deuterium burning D(p,γ)3He reaction. …”
