Home / Awards & medals / Petrus Peregrinus Medal / 2005 / Jean-Louis Le Mouël
In addition to his wide-ranging and original contributions to fundamental research of the many aspects of geomagnetism, Jean-Louis Le Mouël has been interested in various aspects of geophysics. His recent work involves studies of multiscale systems, thermal perturbations in cavities, or electrical changes induced by ascending motions of sap in trees.

On the other hand, in the field of the theory of dynamical systems, he developed a new algorithm in perturbation theory and investigated the properties of diffusion in chaotic regions. He is working now on the universal structure of the phase space around the invariant tori of the Kolmogorv Arnold Moser theory.
