Search for Life on Exoplanets: Toward an International Institutional Coordination (2009)
Schneider, Jean, Foresto, Vincent Coude Du, Ollivier, Marc
Searching for life in the universe will make use of several large space missions in the visible and thermal infrared, each with increasing spectral and angular resolution. They will require long-term...
The question Are We Alone ? in different cultures (2009)
A survey of the worldwide litterature reveals that the question Are We Alone in the Universe ? has been formulated only in the western litterature. Here I try to understand why it is so. To...

This volume contains the written contributions corresponding to the oral presentations of about 45 authors at the Coronagraph Workshop 2006.
It is expected that the next generation of high-contrast imaging instruments will deliver the first unresolved image of an extrasolar planet. The emitted thermal infrared light from the planet should...
Quantum measurement act as a "speech act" (2005)
I show that the quantum measurement problem can be understood if the measurement is seen as a ``speech act'' in the sense of modern language theory. The reduction of the state vector is in this...
Can Life develop in the expanded habitable zones around Red Giant Stars? (2005)
Lopez, Bruno, Schneider, Jean, Danchi, William C.
We present some new ideas about the possibility of life developing around sub-giant and red giant stars. Our study concerns the temporal evolution of the habitable zone. The distance between the star...

Characterising Extrasolar Planets in Reflected Light and Thermal Emission (2002)
The physical bases of the detection and characterisation of extrasolar planets in the reflected light and thermal emission regimes are reviewed. They both have their advantages and disadvantages,...
High Angular Resolution and Extrasolar Planets: Beyond Basic Instrumental Performances (2002)
I review the characteristics of planetary systems accessible to imaging. I show that, beyond the basic angular resolution and dynamics performances of an optical ``architecture'', other performances...
