Accurate prediction of relative free energies and reaction rates in zeolite catalysis is highly challenging due to both the complexity of the interatomic interactions as well as the necessity of explicit high-temperature configurational sampling.

Atmospheric chemistry represents a major part of the computational burden of current atmospheric models, notably due to the stiffness of the corresponding ODE system that forces the use of computationally expensive implicit numerical solvers.

Particles in turbulence are omnipresent. Dust in the atmosphere, sediment in marine environments or biological beings in a variety of turbulent flows are just some of the possible examples.

For the first time in the history of climate modelling, it is becoming possible to run multi-year climate simulations with a global atmospheric model that has a horizontal resolution of a few kilometers.

Persistent storage of captured CO2 is essential to reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. Basalts have been suggested as safe and efficient for carbon storage due to their widespread occurrence (~10 % of the continents) and their reactivity with carbonated water.

Polymers are ubiquitous in our society thanks to their relative ease of synthesis from petroleum-derived intermediates. Indeed, synthetic polymers can be formulated into diverse materials, have shown extreme durability, and can be manufactured at low cost.

This project will explore applications of LCNs to language models, proposing the training and open sourcing of a LC-enhanced LLM.

Astrophysical observations reveal that disorganised plasmas around compact objects produce coherent radiation. How orderly processes can arise from such conditions and give place to coherent dynamics still eludes us. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain these phenomena.

Following the launch of ChatGPT, an unstoppable trend has risen to use chatbots for day to day consultations and text writing by businesses, public institutions and individuals alike.
