## Abstract

For a simple real Jordan algebra $V,$ a family of bi-differential operators from $\mathcal{C}^\infty(V\times V)$ to $\mathcal{C}^\infty(V)$ is constructed. These operators are covariant under the rational action of the conformal group of $V.$ They generalize the classical {\em Rankin-Cohen} brackets (case $V=\mathbb{R}$).
