Description: The Office for Science and Technology of the Consulate of France in Los Angeles, in partnership with the Alliance Française de Los Angeles and Los Angeles Accueil present:

TERAHERTZ WAVES- WHEN EUROPEAN COLLABORATIVE SCIENCE MEETS WORLDWIDE ART, with:

JEAN-PAUL GUILLET, Visiting Researcher at UCLA, Associate Professor at University of Bordeaux

MONA JARRAHI, Professor and Vice-Chair at UCLA Electrical and Computer Engineering Department

TALK + RECEPTION, WITH FRENCH APPETIZERS

Join us at the Alliance Française de Los Angeles to read about how Terahertz Waves, a frequency band between radio and infrared, with booming applications, can be used as a cutting-edge non-destructive method for Art & Heritage.

Terahertz waves have the ability to penetrate matter, so they can be used to analyze art works or heritage samples. We can thus see through a painting, to identify old paintings, to help with restoration by identifying signs of aging.

Enjoy an open discussion with them, around French appetizers.
