Higgs precision era at the LHC (HiggsEFT)

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2018,

We are at a very special point in space and time. The Large Hadron Collider has experienced a first very successful physics run that culminated with the discovery of the long sought-after Higgs boson. We have begun probing the substructure of nature at unprecedented 10^(-17) cm distances, corresponding to the energy scales of the few TeV. The goal of this project is to develop a formalism t ...

Coupling effects in magnetic patterned nanostructures (COEF-MAGNANO)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

The scientific objective of this programme is to achieve a comprehensive knowledge of magnetically coupled systems of reduced dimensionality. Spin configuration, magnetic and electrical properties of patterned nanostructures will be investigated in three kinds of magnetically coupled materials: antiferromagnetic / ferromagnetic (AF/FM), very thin multilayers with perpendicular anisotropy and super ...

The microelectronics industry will face major challenges related to power dissipation and energy consumption in the next years. Both static and dynamic consumption will soon start to limit microprocessor performance growth. The goal of the spOt project is to modify the memory hierarchy by the integration of non-volatility (NV) as a new feature of memory cache, which would immediately minimize stat ...

"Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) are very promising for sensing purposes, information technology, or exploration of quantum mechanics in extended bodies. A decisive parameter for any oscillator is the quality factor, Q, determining how much energy the system dissipates during one oscillation period. A high Q signifies large oscillator amplitudes and a sharp resonance. Although NEMS resonators ...

"Visceral leishmaniasis is caused by the protozoan parasites Leishmania donovani and Leishmania infantum and is a potentially fatal disease in endemic areas around the world. During the infectious cycle, Leishmania alternate between the insect promastigote stage and the vertebrate aflagellate amastigote stage that proliferates inside infected host macrophages provoking the pathology of the disease ...

The establishment of sensory-organ innervation is crucial for behaviour, social interactions and survival. Neuronal arborisation is dictated by signals that guide neurites to their appropriate targets in combination with the spatial distribution of the target cells. To date, most emphasis has been placed on the genetic bases of neuronal-type specification and organ formation during embryonic devel ...
