The research area of MADIR group is the study of excited matter and radiation damage. It deals with several main domains :
- Chemical and structural modifications in organic materials and related :
- On the study of polymer ageing under ionizing radiations
- On the study of astrophysical ices under ionizing radiation (see ANR IGLIAS)
- Structural modifications in ceramics : from basic mechanisms to nuclear materials applications
- Surface reaction/nanostructuring
- Combined effect of energy loss process in ion/matter interaction
- Ion Track Technology, Ion-beam shapping
- Instrumental development
