Information management

An aspect of your own experience that demonstrates this skill :
Pendant les premières semaines de ma thèse, j'ai eu l'occasion de faire un travail bibliographique sur portant sur l'histoire et l'état de l'art de la physique des éléments superlourds. Je continue régulièrement à lire les dernières publications scientifiques recommandées par mon directeur de thèse ainsi que celles qui attisent ma curiosité.

Expertise and methods

An aspect of your own experience that demonstrates this skill :
Je me suis familiarisée avec le dispositif expérimental ainsi que les deux systèmes d'acquisition de données (un digital, un analogue) utilisés au Nishina Center de l'institut RIKEN dans le cadre de la campagne de production de l'élément 119. J'ai également développé un code d'analyse de données en langage C++ et utilisant la bibliothèque ROOT axé sur la recherche d'évènement rares. Ce dernier utilise la méthode dite des "corrélations génétiques". Enfin, je me suis familiarisée avec les cartes d'acquisition digitales Pixie-16 du RIKEN et à l’algorithme de Jordanov utilisé par celles-ci en développant mon propre algorithme de Jordanov pour comparer mes résultats à ceux obtenus avec les cartes.

J'ai eu plusieurs occasions de présenter mon travail de recherche. Lors de mon évaluation orale de fin de stage ainsi que ma candidature à l'école doctorale de Strasbourg, j'ai eu l'occasion de présenter mes travaux à un public scientifique mais non-expert en physique nucléaire, ce qui a requis un travail de vulgarisation. J'ai également eu l'occasion de présenter un poster scientifique lors d'une école d'hiver en Autriche, en anglais, à un public de physiciens nucléaires. Je pratique de façon courante le français, l'anglais et le luxembourgeois, et, à un niveau plus modeste, l'allemand et le japonais.
