The “Laboratoire de Physique des 2 Infinis Irène Joliot-Curie” (Laboratory of the Physics of the two Infinities Irène Joliot-Curie) or IJCLab, is a joint research unit of CNRS, Université Paris-Saclay and Université Paris-Cité, located on the Orsay campus. This laboratory results from the merger of five laboratories (CSNSM, IMNC, IPNO, LAL and LPT) that were close to each other geographically and scientifically. These laboratories share a common history, linked with the creation and the development of the Orsay campus.
Gathering around 730 people, IJCLab covers the activities present previously in these five laboratoires. The identify of IJCLab is centred on the “physique of the two infinites” and their applications, with a wealth of subjects related to these domains of physics. This is reflected by the presence of strong poles in well-established disciplines, of poles related to emerging fields and of interface activities. This laboratory has the ability, the vocation and the ambition to make a global impact on a lage range of scientific and technical topics by leading larges-scale projects at the national and international levels. It also spurs and supports projects on a smaller scales and shorter cycles which can arise depending on recent scientific events and/or technical breakthroughs.
