Dissemination of Knowledge
The Collège de France has been disseminating knowledge via the Internet since 2007. In keeping with its tradition, the institution is thus able to ensure the availability of its teaching free-of-charge to the widest public possible. Notwithstanding the difficulty and high scientific level of the content put on line, this initiative has been particularly successful: 1,463,255 files downloaded in 2007, and 3,350,682 in 2008. To cater for the constantly increasing volume of documents available f..
The New Website: www.college-de-france.fr
The project to redesign the Collège de France website drew on recurrent comments from Internet users, professors, researchers, and all the contributors. Everyone converged around a same goal: to better promoÂte one of the main political guiding principles of the institution, namely to share the results of first-class research with as many people as possible, using high-performing tools. The new Collège de France website was put online in September 2012, following eight months of preparatory ..
Plateforme multimédia du site internet
Site du Collège de France Depuis 2007, le Collège de France a entrepris de mettre en place une diffusion de ses enseignements sur Internet, afin de les rendre accessibles à un public élargi – en accès libre et gratuit, selon la tradition du Collège. Malgré la difficulté et le haut niveau scientifique des contenus mis en ligne, cette initiative a connu un succès de grande ampleur : 1 463 255 téléchargements en 2007, 3 350 682 en 2008. Pour répondre à l’augmentation continue du volume de docum..

Reflective Optics for the ESRF Beamline ID 26
The ESRF beamline ID26 is dedicated to XAFS studies on ultra-diluted samples in the energy
range 2.5-25 KeV using the excitation of X-ray fluorescence. The source consists of three phasable planar
undulators, inserted in an high β section of the storage ring. The optical design, based on grazing incidence
mirrors, aims at obtaining a highly stable clean beam with efficient harmonic rejection together with small
vertical and horizontal focal spot sizes. The heat load associated with unwanted high energies is dump in the
less critical component, i.e. the first mirror. The latter is a flat Si mirror which acts as a heat sink, introduces
a cut-off at high energy and steers the beam out of the brehmsstrahlung emission cone of the straight
section. Horizontal and vertical focusing are performed separately by a couple of piezoelectric (PZT) mirrors
in a classical Kirkpatrick-Baez configuration. To overcome the limitation due to the maximum length of the
commercially available PZT ceramics (150 mm), several plates have been assembled side to side thus
allowing a much wider angular acceptance. A wavefront sensor will provide in-situ monitoring of the mirrors
shape. Ray-tracing simulations (using the computer code Shadow) show that theoretical focal spot sizes as
small as 106x8 µm² FWHM could in principle be obtained
La France, un futur pour vos Ă©tudes.: Film promotionnel sur les Ă©tudes en France.
Un homme nous accueille dans les bâtiments de l’INALCO et se présente comme la personnification de la vie étudiante et des études en France. Il nous fait découvrir les lieux symboliques de la vie étudiante à l’INALCO : bibliothèque, cafétéria et amphithéâtres… avant de nous narrer les différents avantages spécifiques à la vie étudiante en France, à savoir l’accès gratuit à de nombreux musées, le dynamisme et le cosmopolitisme de la ville de Paris. Ce film promotionnel sur les études en France a été réalisé par les étudiants de la filière CFI
