Bilbao, October 21, 2015

Blaise PASCAL (France1623-1662), Inventor, mathematician, physicist and theological writer. He invented the Pascaline, an early calculator. Also in the 1640s, he validated Torricelli's theory concerning the cause of barometrical variations. In the 1650s, PASCAL laid the foundation of probability theory and published the theological works Pénsees and Provinciales. inquisitive boy, who at the age of 12 began exploring geometry on his own. He even made up his own terminology, not having learned the official terms. The prodigy quickly managed to work out that the sum of a triangle's angles are equal to two right angles. PASCAL set about trying to create a perpetual motion machine, the purpose of which was to produce more energy than it used. In the process, he stumbled upon an accidental invention. In 1655, PASCAL's roulette machine was born. Aptly, he derived its name from the French word for "little whee”. His complex personality has been described as "precocious, stubbornly persevering, a perfectionist, pugnacious to the point of bullying ruthlessness yet seeking to be meek and humble."

Luis VEGA ha sido galardonado con la Medalla Blaise Pascal en Mathematicas

Ø La ceremonia se llevará a cabo el 28 de octubre de 2015, 09:00-14:30 en Le Quartz Congrès Brest, Brest, FranciaØ La Medalla es otorgada por las nominaciones de los becarios, o miembros honorarios de la EURASC-European

Academy of Sciences y reconoce una contribución personal excepcional y demostrada a la ciencia, la tecnología y la promoción de la excelencia en la investigación.

Luis VEGA, Director Científico de BCAM, Catedrático de la UPV/EHU-Universidad del País Vasco/ Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea), Premio Euskadi de Investigación 2012 y miembro de la RAC-Real Academia de Ciencias de España, es un experto mundial conocido por su trabajo en Ecuaciones en Derivadas Parciales y Análisis de Fourier.

El Comité Científico de la EURASC ha seleccionado y su Junta General otorga este premio a Luis VEGA en reconocimiento por sus contribuciones seminales en el análisis armónico y de métodos de Fourier en ecuaciones diferenciales parciales y será entregado como parte del EURASC 2015. En la ceremonia, profesor VEGA dará la charla: "El efecto Talbot y la evolución de los filamentos de vórtices", para presentar una interesante conexión entre el efecto Talbot conocido en Óptica con la dinámica de los filamentos de vórtices que evolucionan bajo la llamada ley binormal.

El premio consistirá en una medalla y un certificado. Este año el acto se abrirá con los mensajes de bienvenida de Pascal GENTE, Vice-Presidente de la Universidad de Bretaña Occidental y Claude DEBRU, Presidente de la Academia Europea de las Ciencias.

Sobre EURASC:

Es una asociación de distinguidos académicos que tiene como objetivo reconocer y elegir a sus miembros a los mejores científicos europeos con una visión para Europa en su conjunto. Esta asociación plenamente independiente tiene como objetivo el fortalecimiento de la ciencia europea y la cooperación científica y la utilización de la experiencia de sus miembros en el consejo complementaria de otros organismos europeos (como Academias nacionales y europeos) para la mejora de la investigación europea, la aplicación tecnológica y el desarrollo social.

Blaise PASCAL(France 1623-1662), inventor, matemático, físico y escritor teológico. Inventó la Pascaline, una temprana calculadora. También en la década de 1640, validó la teoría de Torricelli en relación con la causa de las variaciones barométricas. En la década de 1650, PASCAL sentó las bases de la teoría de la probabilidad y publicó trabajo teológico Pensées y Provinciales. Joven curioso, a llos 12 años comenzó a explorar la geometría por su cuenta. Incluso creó su propia terminología, no habiendo aprendido los términos oficiales. El prodigio rápidamente logró averiguar que la suma de los ángulos de un triángulo son iguales a dos rectos. PASCAL se dedicó a tratar de crear una máquina de movimiento perpetuo, cuyo objetivo era producir más energía de lo que solía tener. En el proceso, se topó con una invención accidental. En 1655, nació la máquina de la ruleta de PASCAL, que deriva acertadamente su nombre de la palabra francesa para "pequeña rueda". Su compleja personalidad ha sido descrita como "precoz, tercamente perseverante, perfeccionista, agresiva hasta el punto de intimidar cruelmente tratando de ser manso y humilde."
