The subject of the paper is the study of Brownian measures on spaces of curves in the plane and their images under conformal invariance. Bridge-type Brownian measures are first considered. The Brownian bubble measure is a measure on loops in the upper half-plane rooted at the origin. The Brownian loop measure is a conformally invariant measure on unrooted loops. The last section is devoted to the relation between the Brownian loop soup of intensity \(\lambda>0\) which is a Poisson point process of intensity \(\lambda\) times the Brownian loop measure and the Brownian bubble soup which is a Poisson point process with intensity \(\lambda\) times the Brownian bubble measure. The point is that if we travel along a simple curve in the upper half-plane and encounter a loop in the loop soup, we can transform it into a bubble rooted at the origin. The relation of these topics with the Schramm-Loewner evolution curves is detailed in the introduction.
