Full textPainting presents an almost infinite range of possibilities to convey meaning through the versatility and potential of the medium. It is to this potential for mimicking and representing the real world that I wish to turn; for whilst the word painting refers to the manifestation of the physical object, it also, more importantly for this discussion, refers to the act of painting itself, the application of paint onto a surface in the articulation of an illusory reality. This ability to represent in paint, upon a two-dimensional surface, the real world in such a way as to cause in the viewer an experience which is somehow like that of looking at the world, is called naturalism.

Full textAddressing fundamental questions regarding our understanding of the Universe, such as the cause of its accelerated expansion or the nature of dark matter, requires to confront theories and observations. In this context, galaxy clusters can be used as powerful observational probes. However, their current utilisation is limited by uncertainties and systematic effects, notably affecting the measurement of their mass, which is presumably dominated by dark matter.Galaxy clusters can be studied at different wavelengths: the hot gas composing the Intra Cluster Medium (ICM) shines in X-ray and is observable at millimetre wavelengths via the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (SZ) effect, whereas galaxies emit principally in the optical and infrared. Combining and comparing these observables allows us to reduce the uncertainties and systematics in the cosmological constraints obtained from clusters. In this context, this thesis aims at paving the way of future large surveys such as Euclid and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope. It presents the multi-wavelengths analyses of a sample of clusters detected in X-ray in the XXL survey, spanning a wide range of masses and redshifts. The first part of the thesis introduces the cosmological context and presents the observational properties of galaxies and clusters, and the ingredients to build cosmological cluster samples. The second part concentrates on the optical characterisation of XXL clusters and the properties of their member galaxies. It starts by presenting XXL and the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey (CFHTLS), an optical counterpart survey. Then, it focuses on the characterisation of the CFHTLS photometric redshifts quality and their use to construct the optical galaxy luminosity functions (LF) of XXL clusters. The LF of satellite galaxies is found to slightly depend on cluster richness, the main optical mass proxy, but no significant redshift evolution is observed. Then, the study of the colour and active galactic nuclei (AGN) fraction in XXL cluster galaxies is performed, finding that the mass plays a key role in shaping AGN and star formation activity in clusters. Finally, the WaZP optical cluster finder algorithm is used to investigate the optical counterparts of XXL clusters. The third part of this thesis is dedicated to the observational project dedicated to the mapping of the SZ signal in three distant XXL clusters, with the high angular resolution NIKA2 camera. The preparation of the project is discussed, making use of the X-ray and optical data to predict the expected SZ signal. Then, the observation procedure at the telescope and the data reduction, dedicated to produce calibrated SZ maps, are presented. The project is still ongoing and one cluster, XLSSC102, at z = 0.97, has been partially observed. The development of the blind detection of galaxies potentially contaminating the SZ signal is developed, allowing for the serendipitous discovery of dusty star forming galaxies in the field of XLSSC102. The morphology and dynamical state of XLSSC102 are then characterised using optical, SZ and X-ray data and the radial ICM thermodynamics and mass profiles are measured combining SZ and X-ray data. This allows us to show that XLSSC102 is a merging cluster with a mass ∼ 3 × 10 14 M, and is compatible with the standard evolution scenario of cluster formation

Full textThe new spectroscopic window opened by the advent of the Herschel Space Observatory,has enabled the detection of simple nitrogen species, the nitrogen hydrides NH, NH2, and NH3,in the cold envelope of protostars. These envelopes are made of dense cold gas characteristicof the physico-chemical conditions of molecular clouds. The observation of nitrogen hydrides insuch environments has brought new constraints on the interstellar chemistry of these kind ofclouds, and gives, in particular, the opportunity to revisit the chemistry of nitrogen.The aim of my thesis was to comprehensively analyse the interstellar chemistry of nitrogen,focussing on the gas-phase formation of the simplest polyatomic species, namely nitrogen hydrides.Under dense, cold gas conditions (n = 104 cm−3, T = 10 K), the chemistry of theselatter is initiated by a slow chemistry (the conversion from N to N2 with neutral-neutral reactions),in contrast to their carbonated and oxygenated analogues. We have investigated andrevisited this specific part of the nitrogen chemistry in the light of recent theoretical and experimentalwork carried out by several expert teams (Bordeaux, Besançon). In addition, recentwork about the ortho-para conversion of molecular hydrogen and new calculations of nuclearspin branching ratios for the production pathways of nitrogen hydrides in their ortho and paraconfigurations conducted at IPAG, enabled us to treat self-consistently the different spin symmetriesof the nitrogen hydrides together with the ortho and para forms of molecular hydrogen.We were able to develop a new network of chemical nitrogen in which the kinetic rates of criticalreactions involved in the nitrogen chemistry have been updated.This new network is used to model the time evolution of the nitrogen species abundancesin dense cold gas conditions (T ≤ 50 K, 103 < n < 106 cm−3). The steady-state resultsare compared to observations of NH, NH2 and NH3 towards a sample of low-mass protostars,with a special emphasis on the influence of the overall amounts of gaseous carbon, oxygen, andsulphur. Our chemical models reproduced the nitrogen hydrides abundances and their ratios fora gas-phase elemental C/O ratio of ∼ 0.8, provided that the total amount of sulphur is depletedby at least a factor of two. Our predicted ortho-to-para ratios for NH2 and NH3, ∼ 2.3 and∼ 0.7 respectively, are in good agreement with the observations towards cold diffuse clouds.Then, in dark gas conditions, the nitrogen hydride abundances are consistent with a pure gasphasesynthesis. Moreover, our results are based on the fact that NH is coming from a differentpathway than NH2 and NH3. NH is the daughter molecule of N2H+, deriving from the reactionN2+H+3 , while NH2 and NH3 proceed from NH+4 , itself daughter molecule of N+, resulting fromthe dissociative charge exchange N2 + He+

Full textThe international Argo program has revolutionized the observation of the global ocean. An array of more than 3000 profiling floats is in place and provides global measurements of temperature and salinity on the first 2000 meters of the ocean. These measurements are assimilated into ocean models together with satellite observations to describe and forecast the ocean state. We propose here to characterize model errors using Argo observations. Model errors are described through their amplitude, geographical and temporal variations as well as their spatial scales. Spatial scales of both model errors and ocean signals are, in particular, estimated. This allows a comparison of model errors and ocean variability structure. Finally, techniques based on information content are tested in the longer run quantifying the impact of Argo observations in the Mercator Ocean data assimilation systems

Full textA few years ago, asteroid polarimetry allowed to discover a class of asteroids exhibiting peculiar phase polarization curves, collectively called "Barbarians" from the prototype of this class, the asteroid (234) Barbara. All such objects belong to the L visible plus near infrared based taxonomic class. The anomalous polarization has been tentatively interpreted in terms of high-albedo, spinel-rich Calcium-Aluminum inclusions (CAI) that could be abundant on the surfaces of some of these asteroids, according to their spectral reflectance properties and to analogies with CO3/CV3 meteorites. Such CAIs are among the oldest mineral assemblages ever found in the Solar System. Barbarians' surfaces could therefore be rich in this very ancient material and bring information on the early phases of planetary formation. During this thesis, a systematic campaign for photometric, polarimetric and spectroscopic characterization has been conducted. These observation campaigns allowed improving our general knowledge about these peculiar asteroids and highlighting the link between polarization and polarimetric properties. Our observation also allowed discarding the hypotheses involving peculiar shape for these asteroids. However, as it was suggested, a link between the presence of CAI and the polarimetric response was found. Our observations show that the relative abundance of CAI is correlated with the polarimetric inversion angle. This is the first time that a direct link between polarimetric and spectroscopic properties is found
