In 1985 he found with
three other researchers the first research laboratory in Astrophysics in
Morocco at the national center for scientific and technical research at Rabat.
Joins Marrakech University in 1992 and founded with 5 other researchers the
laboratory of high-energy physics and astrophysics in 1999. Works to create the
first professional astronomical observatory in Morocco on Oukaimeden site,
inaugurating it in 2007 and has been directing it since then.
Creates with a group
of passionate people the Association of Astronomy amateurs of Marrakech (3AM),
a cultural association aiming to promote astronomy and space science to the
public.
His research works
allow Morocco to be selected for the E-ELT project campaign. He conducted this
project as part of the European FP6 program with the support of Hassan II
academy for Science and Techniques in Morocco.
He is president of the
National Committee for astronomy in Morocco (CNAM). Has just been elected
president of the ArAS (Arab Astronomical Society), a professional association
newly created (December 2016) and working towards the promotion of scientific
research in Astrophysics in Arab countries. He is one of the founders of Africa Initiative for Planetary and
Space Science '' and he is a member of its scientific advisory committee.
He is leading an
ambitious project to create a 2 meters diameter telescope in Morocco. He is
also leading the Atlas Dark Sky Morocco (ADSM)
project. The project is aiming for the creation of a Dark Sky Reserve around the Oukaimeden
observatory in Morocco. The reserve will cover a large area including the
Toubkal National Park and the Oukaimeden observatory with a radius of about 80
km. It will become the largest Dark Sky Reserve worldwide and the first in
North Africa.
Moreover, he is the
author of more than a hundred articles and scientific communications. He is
also very active in the domain of science outreach. In recognition of his
involvement in the domain of Astronomy, the international astronomical union
(IAU) gave his name to the asteroid 133892
Benkhaldoun (2004 RN8).
He is part of the
research team that just discovered the most important exoplanet system as of
today (http://www.trappist.one/). This discovery was published in the Nature magazine.

Narrative Write-Up
Professor Benkhaldoun
has been working for more than 30 years for the development of Astronomy and
Astrophysics in Morocco. For this reason, he chose first the site-testing theme
for observation in astronomy aiming to provide Morocco with an astronomical
Observatory. His works on this area allowed him to showcase the good quality of
Moroccan sites, mainly the ones of Oukaimeden mountains, and lastly of Aklim
site, that was shortlisted as candidate for the future project of the largest
telescope in the world; E-ELT.
Within this thematic,
Professor Benkhaldoun and his team first estimated the sky quality in terms of
transparence and developed their own measuring instruments (Benkhaldoun, 1993,
1994). Within his laboratory, the candidate also put in place and used two
astronomical seeing measurement instruments: the Differential Image Motion
Monitor of Marrakech DIMMAR (Benkhaldoun et al, 2004 and 2005). This instrument
uses images flickering caused by atmospheric turbulence to characterize the
latter and deduct the seeing, which is a main site testing parameter.
The expertise he
acquired in this field allowed Pr. Benkhaldoun to contribute with his team to
the creation of an atmospheric profiler of a new type: the Single Star Scidar
(SSS), by developing an inventive method of optimization calculus, based on
what is called the simulated recruit The Simulated Annealing Algorithm
(Habib et al, 2004, 2005).
Working on new concept
using an interferometry method for the measure the phase fluctuation generated
by the atmosphere turbulent motion, Mr. Benkhaldouns team developed a new
instrument: Interferential Seenig Monitor ISM (Habib et al, 2008, 2013, on the
long run, this instrument is supposed to replace the DIMM system taking into
account its high efficiency and lower cost.
In addition to the
instrumental development of these profilers, other techniques to extract
turbulence profiles such as the usage of NCEP/NCAR meteorological data were put
in place within the LPHEA team led by Mr Benkhaldoun (Y. Hach et al., MNRAS
2012). Therefore, on top of the instrumental development, professor Benkhaldoun
showcased a strong theoretical knowledge, and therefore directed his team to
contribute to the development of universal models of atmospheric seeing
previsions (Benkhaldoun et al, 1994, 1996, 2003, Jabiri et al, 2001, Abahamid
et al, 2004). These models are very useful for astronomers willing to schedule
in advance the time and location of their observation.
Lastly, this
characterization part of astronomical sites has been completed by the aerosols
characterization, which is very annoying for observation in this region of the
globe because of the proximity to Sahara. Dates of circulation of these
aerosols were elaborated within the LPHEA. This part, studied in detailed, was
the main subject of two thesis (Siher and Bounhir)
supervised by Mr Benkhaldoun, as well as many scientific publications (Siher et
al, 2002 et 2004, Bounhir et al, 2006, 2008 et 2009).
Many PHD students were
therefore trained under the supervision of mister Benkhaldoun under the
thematic of site testing (Jabiri, Siher, Abahamid, Habib, Bounhir
and Hach), 5 of these researchers later joined his laboratory.
Year 2000 witnessed
the organization in Marrakech of an important international conference on the
thematic of site testing in visibility and radio (Site 2000).
IAU (International Astronomical Union) and URSI (International Union of Radio
Science) sponsored this conference and was a big success. Mr Benkhaldoun
was the coordinator of the scientific comity and one of the three proceeding
publishers. This proceedings are now a reference in
the community (J. Vernin, Z. Benkhaldoun, and C. Muoz-Tunon, PASP 2002).
The scientific
research conducted under this thematic contributed highly to the creation of Oukaimeden Observatory. This observatory was inaugurated in 1997 and Mr Benkhaldoun
was naturally appointed director of this new research center belonging to Cadi Ayyad University.
In this context, and
in thanks to the expertise acquired by professor Benkhaldoun on one hand, and
the quality of Moroccan sites proves by scientific publications cited above on
the other hand, the European community
(through ESO) chose one of the Moroccan sites as a possible candidate of
the future 40m Diameter telescope called Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT).
This was a very complex challenge due to the site isolation, but it was
successfully completed. Actually, Professor Benkhaldoun knew how to mobilize
his team and the financial and logistic resources necessary to lead this
project. This campaign allowed Morocco to get a consequent database on the
astro-climatic parameters of the region. This subjected led to the completion
of a PHD thesis (Sabil 2013) and to a number of publications (Bounhir et al
2008, Benhida et al 2010, Sabil et al 2010, Vernin et al 2011, Vasquez-Ramiro
et al 2012, Varela et al 2014).
Since the creation of
the project of Oukaimeden observatory, professor Benkhaldoun is working toward
the target other scientific areas more linked to stellar observations and
compatible with the instrumentation he owns or that he was able to acquire
within international cooperation. These subjects are presented here after:
Magnitude limit in Optical Interferometry:
The
context being the optical interferometers on the launch of the realization of
the European Extremely Large Telescope. The very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) is at a strategic turning-point, which determines its scientific applications
and its future by horizon of 2020. If its application scope can be extended to
the low sources, then one of the main axes of development of the VLBI is the
manufacturing of instruments, and even interferometers, that could complete the
EELT by accessing the fine details that are beyond its resolution abilities.
The goal is then to grasp the limits of the long baseline interferometers on
the years 2020.
During one doctorate
thesis defended in Mr Benkhaldoun laboratory in 2008 (T. Elhalkouj), the
following have been developed:
●
A new isopistonic
angle calculation method, acceptable angle between two astronomical sources so
as one can be used as a guidance source for the scientific target source
(Elhalkouj et al 2008, Sabil et al 2010).
● A new cophasing method, called hierarchical (Thse Elhalkouj
2008).
● A global method of evaluation and optimization of the sky cover
for an off axe cophasing( Elhalkouj 2006).
Mach Zehnder interferometer for coronography
and apodisation.
The Oukaimeden
observatory, under Mr Benkhaldoun supervision, is strongly involved in the
R&D program on that topic. The coronography development is fundamental to
reach the final objective of the EELT on detection and characterization of
very faint sources (looking forward bio-markers on exo-earths).
The professor
Benkhaldoun have conclude an agreement with several partners which allowed the
acquisition and installation of materials needed to develop a testing bench at
the Marrakech University for an experimental validation of those concepts of
apodisation and coronography.
The LPHEA team has
engaged in simulations and experimental tests of the apodisation happening by
interferometry by using the Michelson interferometer (El Azahri et al, IAU 200,
2006) then the Mach-Zehnder interferometer (Carlotti et al, A&A 477, 2008).
The LPHEA has then developed a homothetic technique for interferometric
apodisation (Azagrouze, Thse 2012, Habib, A., et al, MNRAS 406, 2012).
Exoplanets:
As the detection and
characterisation of exoplanets is booming among the international astronomic
community, the OUCA has then naturally taken interest on it. Consequently, two
techniques have been implemented at the Observatory. The transit technique,
which consist in flow decrease detected when a planet is at the crossing point
with its star (Daassou et al 2010, 2011). And the radial
velocity technique consisting in doing a spectroscopy on the signal coming from
the Exoplanet candidate to detect the offset due to the shift of the star
gravity center because of the effect of the environing planet system. The
Exoplanets atmosphere study is part of the professor Benkhaldoun team
investigations. The first doctorate thesis in exoplanets (Ahmed Daassou) was
defended in the Cadi Ayyad University in 2015.
In February 2017, the
Observatory team achieves a worldwide scientific accomplishment by
participating to the discovery of a 7 telluric exoplanets system, from which at
least 3 are in the Habitable zone of the star TRAPPIST-1 (named after the TRAPPIST program from which one of the
telescopes – TRAPPIST-North is in Morocco at the Oukaimeden Observatory).
This discovery was
published on the prestigious magazine Nature ( 23 February 2017), and the professor Benkhaldoun is one of the authors with one
of his doctoral students (Khalidd Barkaoui).
Solar System Small bodies:
The instrumentation actually available in the Observatory,
because of its modest size, allows only observation of objects relatively near
to our environment. Hence, in addition to sky surveillance for contributing to
the discovery of new near earth objects (NEO and NEA) along with comets
(Benkhaldoun et al 2012), the Oukaimeden Observatory has started a
collaboration with the teams of the planet studies of the Paris Observatory
(IMCCE et IPG), from Toulouse university in France and from the Hassan II
university of Casablanca regarding the meteors and meteorites (Chenaoui et al 2012). A school of astrophysics OISA 2009 held in the Oukaimeden, was dedicated to this topic and has resulted in
an international cooperation program led on the Moroccan side by professor
Benkhaldoun (Baratoux et al 2012).
The OUCA is since then
equipped with multiple cameras and GPS systems for meteor trajectory detection
on one side, and for impact flash detection (meteorites crash on the moon) on
the other side (Daassou et al 2011, Bouley et al 2012). The first PhD thesis in
this topic was defended on September 2016 at LPHEA (Mamon Ait Moulay El Arbi)
MOSS Program:
Professor Benkhaldoun
has succeeded in convincing a French astronomer to install a telescope
dedicated to the discovery of small bodies in the solar system. And by
involving a Swiss astronomy association that has provided the dome, the MOSS,
Moroccan Oukaimeden Sky Survey, project was born. This program is now a
great success and the Oukaimeden, thanks to the MOSS telescope, is graded as
the 7th best detector of asteroids and comets worldwide (2016). Four
comets, five near earth asteroids and more than 6000 new objects have been
detected by this telescope (moss-observatory.org ). With more than a million measurements sent to the Minor Planet
Center (MPC) of the International Astronomic Union, the Oukaimeden Observatory
has reached in 2017 the 27th rank on the all-time rating of more
than 500 observatories listed by this institution.
RENOIR Program:
The Oukaimeden
Observatory has joined the ISWI (International Space Weather Initiative)
through the RENOIR@OUCA project, the project being based on a scientific cooperation
with a research team from the Illinois University. The aim is to install in the
Oukaimeden Observatory, a series of optical and magnetic instruments for the
detection of the effects inducted by the sun activity on the ionosphere and
magnetosphere. The cooperation agreement was signed under impulse from
professor Benkhaldoun in may 2013, and the first publications are now starting
to be released (Benkhaldoun et al 2014, Fisher et al, 2015, Kaab et all 2017).
Education by a
scientific research:
Professor Benkhaldoun
is very engaged in this essential facet for developing a high-quality
scientific research. Under his supervision, the first postgraduate course in
Astronomy has started on 2000 at the Cadi Ayyad University. Since then, 7
Master classes have been held on that discipline. Many of those laureates have
been able to do a thesis in its laboratory and five of them have joined the
Oukaimeden Observatory as researchers. He has now eight PhD students under his
mentorship.
Since the Oukaimeden
Observatory inauguration, Mr. Benkhaldoun and his team decided to organize an
international spring each two year. This school has been named OISA for
Oukaimeden International School of Astrophysics and is now at its 7th
edition (2016). The 2016 OISA edition was English speaking and directed toward
Arab World students (FAWSA: First Arab Winter School for Astrophysics).
Outreach
Its an aspect toward
which professor Benkhaldoun is very keen and in which he is very involved. He
has indeed created, with other passionate astronomers, an Astronomy association
in Marrakech (3AM) that he has presided for more than 10 years. Each year this
organization is holding an Astronomy festival (18th edition in 2017), along
other events aimed toward the largest audience (schools and cultural centers
animations). With his operations and his expertise, professor Benkhaldoun has
helped in creation of a cultural center in Marrakech for which Astronomy is
core activity (AGM cultural center).
Two Meter telescope
project for Morocco
Professor Benkhaldoun
is now working on the realization of a bigger project and that would lead to
Morocco having a telescope of 2-meter diameter. With this in mind, an assembly
of Moroccan astronomer is under creation and a national committee for Astronomy
in Morocco has just been created. Professor Benkhaldoun is elected as president
of this committee.
