Particle Research Centre

Le Centre de Recherche sur la Matière Divisée a pour mission de comprendre la matière divisée, sa structure tant à l'échelle microscopique que macroscopique, son organisation, sa thermodynamique, son évolution temporelle, ses fonctionnalités, ses propriétés dynamiques, mécaniques et catalytiques, et son potentiel dans des applications environnementales et énergétiques.

it looks like it deals with particles, I don't see why somebody should call them divided, theu are the result of the division:)

divided matter

Collaboration between researchers from the University of Chicago(1) , from the Los Alamos National Laboratory(2) , and from the Centre de recherche sur la matière divisée(3) (Center for Research into Divided Matter , CRMD, a joint CNRS and Université d’Orléans research unit) has made it possible to find paramagnetic materials that are capable of measuring, with very high precision (about 1/1000), magnetic fields of as high as 60 teslas(4) , i.e. over one million times the Earth's magnetic field. These materials are compounds based on silver and on selenium or tellurium, Ag2Se and Ag2Te. This work has been published in Nature in its issue of May 23, 2002.
