ISMO (Paris, France)

ISMO is a joint research unit of CNRS and Université Paris-Sud / Paris-Saclay, located in the campus of the Faculty of Sciences, Orsay, France. ISMO performs theoretical and experimental research on systems ranging from atoms, plasmas, molecules, nano-objects and molecular films, living cells and tissues. Experimental tools include a wide variety of light sources, from nanosecond to femtosecond lasers implemented at ISMO, as well as external facilities providing ultra-intense lasers, synchrotron light, X-ray free electron lasers, or advanced coherent X-ray sources. ISMO leads the development of sometimes unique instrumentation (spectrometers, time-position sensitive detectors, interferometers, super-resolved microscopes, …) and advanced techniques made available to users, with applications to astrophysics, environment, biology or biomedicine.
