|
| Course contents : | Table of content :
- zero gravity and microgravity
- physical phenomena in microgravity
- means for obtaining microgravity
- hypergravity
- designing an experiment |
|
| Course objective : | The lecture aims to allow student better understanding the scientific motivations about micogravity. The second objective is to design an original experiment. The opportunity to flight in the ESA Zero-G airbus will be envisaged. Visits to installations will be also organized. |
