J.-P. Zahn

LUTH, Observatoire de Paris, 92195 Meudon, France


Abstract
This meeting was dedicated to Jean-Louis Leroy, who pioneered polarimetry in French astronomy, and who is one of the leading experts in the field. He applied this diagnostics tool to better understand various astrophysical objects: the Sun, comets, stars, the interstellar medium. Some of his major achievements will be recalled here.
