ThePoincaré Seminars , named for the mathematician and theoretical physicistHenri Poincaré , were founded in 2001. They are nicknamed "Bourbaphy " for their inspiration by theBourbaki Seminars .[ 1]
The goal of this seminar is to provide information on topics of current interest inphysics . Its way of working is directly inspired by the Bourbaki Seminar in mathematics. A series of pedagogical talks aims at explaining a topic of current interest both from a theoretical and an experimental point of view, possibly complemented by a historical introduction. A booklet with the contributions of the speakers is distributed on the day of the seminar. The seminar aims at a general audience ofmathematicians andphysicists and does not require any specialized knowledge.
