Energy is the major challenge facing humanity in the 21st century. The increase in the world's population, the economic growth of the planet's major countries, the programmed disappearance of non-renewable energy sources (oil, coal, gas and even uranium), …

Oxygenic photosynthesis enables plants to use solar energy to reduce carbon dioxide and produce biomass. Some micro-algae or bacteria have even developed a variant of this process, enabling them to produce hydrogen thanks to a specific and highly …

Abstract In the second lesson, we first discussed a subtle dissipative mechanism that can affect Josephson junctions in a non-equilibrium situation, which is the parity defect of superconducting electrodes. If an insulated junction has an odd number of …

This first lecture on molecular oxygen has laid a number of chemical foundations for the study of oxygen reactivity in biological systems. Oxygen arrived on earth in a way by accident, being the product of photosynthesis, which uses water as an electron …

Abstract The first lesson began with a discussion of the physical limits of information-processing machines. We know that the problem of the efficiency of thermal machines led, following the pioneering work of Sadi Carnot, to the development of …
