Aerosols, Clouds, and Trace gases Research InfraStructure (ACTRIS-2)

Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2019,

ACTRIS-2 addresses the scope of integrating state-of-the-art European ground-based stations for long term observations of aerosols, clouds and short lived gases capitalizing work of FP7-ACTRIS. ACTRIS-2 aims to achieve the construction of a user-oriented RI, unique in the EU-RI landscape. ACTRIS-2 provides 4-D integrated high-quality data from near-surface to high altitude (vertical profiles and t ...

Aerosols, Clouds, and Trace gases Research Infrastructure Network (ACTRIS)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

Climate change is for a large part governed by atmospheric processes, in particular the interaction between radiation and atmospheric components (e.g. aerosols, clouds, greenhouse and trace gases). Some of these components are also those with adverse health effects influencing air quality. Strengthening the ground-based component of the Earth Observing System for these key atmospheric variables ha ...

Timing and plasticity in the olivo-cerebellar system (CEREBNET)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

"Training young researchers to form the new generation of scientists is a must for our society. In this project we will use a multidisciplinary approach to investigate neuronal and circuit functions in the cerebellar network, which plays a critical role in sensori-motor control and is probably also involved in higher cognitive functions. The project will focus on timing and plasticity in the netwo ...

High Dimensional Entangled Systems (HIDEAS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

HIDEAS aims at a breakthrough in the information capacity of Quantum Communication (QC), well beyond the standard single-mode approach, by exploiting the intrinsic multi-modal and multivariate character of the radiation field. Our long term vision is that of a broadband Quantum Communication, where all the physical properties of the photons are utilized to store information. Working at the quantum ...

A Brain-Chip Interface for High-resolution Bi-directional Communication (CyberRat)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

We intend to create an innovative interface between a semiconductor chip or an ensemble of semiconductor chips and the brain of a living rat. Small CMOS chips featuring stimulation and recording sites integrated at high-density (1000 elements spaced only 5-10 micrometers) will be implanted in several brain areas, either independently or simultaneously, thus obtaining an unprecedented control of ne ...

The European Spallation Neutron Source (ESS) (NeutronSourceESS)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2010,

The European Spallation neutron Source (ESS) will be the world’s most powerful source of neutrons. Its design parameters makes it the most cost-effective top tier source for 40 years or more. A genuine pan‑European facility, it will serve a user community of 5,000 users annually across many areas of science and technology. Neutron beams produced by reactors are inherently intensity-limited. The ES ...
