Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris

Workshop will be held in the National Natural History Museum's
"Grande Galerie de l'Évolution",

Albert left us on December 6, 2009 following a stroke in September 2009. To offer homage to Albert, his pioneering work and the life he lived, a two days meeting will be organised at IPG Paris on June 21-22, 2010.

June 21 was a special day for Albert, as the summer solstice but also the “Fête de la Musique” in Paris. Some of you might recall this eventful day either in Paris during the “Fête de la Musique” or during the Mathematical Geophysics conferences that Albert organised in late eighties and early nineties.

This 2 days meeting is open to every one who would like to share this moment and participate to the scientific discussions in the lively manner that Albert enjoyed so much. Students are welcome

We shall appreciate if you intend to attend this meeting to fill out the short participation form described below. This will help us to organize this event.
