Experimental Planetary Sciences Lab

Thematic group : DIP
Scientific leader : Frédéric Bejina
Technical leader : Pascal Munsch

The Experimental Planetary Sciences Lab brings together a variety of laboratory experiments capable of recreating the conditions encountered on the surface and inside the rocky bodies of the solar system.
As a whole, this instrumental park allows a better understanding of the physico-chemical processes taking place in these planetary objects.
