Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) has been a crucial technique for monitoring land subsidence and uplift due to its ability to provide high-resolution, continuous spatial and temporal data. This thesis aims to enhance the understanding of ground deformation mechanisms in regions with complex geological settings by integrating InSAR d...
In combinatorics on words, for two finite words u and v, the binomial coefficient of u and v is the number of times v appears as a subsequence of u (also called (scattered) subword). For example, with u = alphalpha and v = al, there are = 36 ways to select 2 2 letters among 9, but only 3 of them give back v. Generalizing famous binomial coefficient...

Cette thèse consiste en une étude de géographie historique originale couvrant environ treize siècles (du IVe siècle jusqu’en 1559, année d’apparition des nouveaux évêchés aux Pays-Bas espagnols) ; cette étude permet non seulement d’identifier et de distinguer les divisions ecclésiastiques du diocèse de Liège (archidiaconés, doyennés et paroisses), ...

peer reviewed / RATIONALE: Surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization (SALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) builds on the use of nanostructured surfaces (e.g., coatings of colloidal nanoparticles) to promote analyte desorption and ionization. The SALDI process is believed to occur mainly through thermal processes, resulting from heating of the nanosubst...
peer reviewed / Carnivoran species exhibit remarkable diversity in their feeding habits, behavior, and morphology. A defining feature shared by carnivorans and their stem groups (Carnivoramorpha) is the presence of a highly specialized dental complex- the carnassial complex - comprising the 4th upper premolar and the 1st lower molar. Initially evol...
editorial reviewed / NOTT (formerly Hi-5) is the L’-band (3.5-4.0 μm) nulling interferometer of Asgard, an instrument suite in preparation for the VLTI visitor focus. The primary scientific objectives of NOTT include characterizing (i) young planetary systems near the snow line, a critical region for giant planet formation, and (ii) nearby mainsequ...
