The scientific achievements of P. Delache
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
An overview of the multiple facets of Philippe Delache's scientific achievements is presented, from his early involvement in experimental work and space research, through his re-orientation towards radiative transfer, astrophysics, and then the study of the global Sun and its internal structure, and the study of the interior of Jupiter. The constant concern of P. Delache for a proper and correct mathematical analysis of the problems and for modelling, are outlined in this brief overview. The generous character, the profound and complex personality, as well as the human qualities of this very talented scientist, among which modesty is very prominent, are presented in this description of a remarkable career which ended much too early.
