Improved heTErodyne Receiving Arrays for TEraherzt applications (ITERATE)
Start date: Oct 20, 2014, End date: Oct 19, 2017,
"Sensors at sub-millimeter wavelengths, which is loosely defined as 100 GHz to 3 THz, provide unprecedented sensitivity for astrophysics, planetary science, Earth observation, medical imaging or security screening. Heterodyne receivers, which down-convert radio frequency signals to intermediate frequency signals preserving the amplitude and phase information of the incoming radiation, are generall ...

FUTURE ATOMIC CLOCK TECHNOLOGY (FACT)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
During the last decades atomic clocks and frequency standards have become an important resource for advanced economies with impact ranging from satellite navigation (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo) to high speed communication networks, where they ensure synchronisation of data packets at ever higher bit rates. In this field the wake of the new millennium has been marked by the invention of frequency comb t ...

Angular momentum transfer in galaxy formation and evolution (MOMENTUM)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
The project is dedicated to follow angular momentum within structures over a wide range of scales, to trace galaxy formation and the history of mass assembly. Angular momentum is a key parameter to determine galaxy morphology and kinematics. After primordial spin-up by tidal torques, the subsequent evolution may help to understand galaxy formation, although numerical models fail to reproduce large ...

Large European Array for Pulsars (LEAP)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
"In general relativity and other relativistic theories of gravity, space and time are combined to form ``space-time'' which is curved in the presence of mass. As masses move, for instance like the two components in a binary system, ripples in space-time are created that propagate through the Universe, very much like waves caused by a stone falling into a pond. These ``gravitational waves'' (GWs) a ...
