Master in M2 Grands Instruments - Plasmas Lasers Accelerateurs Tokamaks

M2 Grands Instruments - Plasmas Lasers Accelerateurs Tokamaks offers a master's level specialisation in high-level scientific research, focusing on large-scale experimental facilities: accelerators, lasers, and fusion machines. From the outset, students engage in a comprehensive common curriculum in both theory and technology, covering topics such as relativistic physics, plasma physics, accelerator physics, and laser-plasma interactions.

This curriculum is delivered through a mix of lectures and practical sessions conducted at major research sites on Paris-Saclay campus, including the Synchrotron SOLEIL, the APOLLON laser and other high-power lasers, and the accelerators of the IRFU (Institut de Recherche sur les Lois Fondamentales de l'Univers). The program culminates in a five-month internship in a research organization or company, with an opportunity to specialize in areas such as lasers and laser-plasma interactions, accelerators, and fusion magnetism.
