Recent years have seen the blossoming of multi-messenger astrophysics where gravitational waves, photons and neutrinos provide complementary views on cosmic explosions involving some of the Universe’s most enigmatic objects, namely neutron stars and black holes. The first observation of a neutron star merger via both gravitational waves and, days later, an electromagnetic flash called "kilonova" enabled huge scientific leaps forward and was therefore celebrated as "2017 Breakthrough of the Year". Multi-messenger astrophysics has an enormous potential to solve many longstanding puzzles such as the origin of the heaviest elements or the nature of the densest matter in the Universe, provided that we understand how the different messengers are physically connected. The gravitational wave and electromagnetic emission stages, however, involve vastly different length and time scales and completely different physical processes. Therefore, currently strong assumptions need to be made how both stages are actually physically connected. On the verge of this transformational era of physics, I propose to calculate for the first time the evolution from the inspiral (milliseconds before the merger) to the time after the kilonova (months later) within a common simulation framework. This will become possible via the novel computational methodology that I have recently developed: the world-wide first Lagrangian hydrodynamics code that also consistently solves Einstein's equations. Compared to conventional Numerical Relativity codes, my new development has major advantages in evolving the merger ejecta which finally cause the kilonova. This project will provide for the first time detailed physical structures of neutron star merger remnants and the first one-to-one mapping between the physics of the merger and the gravitational wave, neutrino and electromagnetic signals. This will present a major breakthrough for both the nuclear astrophysics and the multi-messenger communities.

Feldspar luminescence is a diverse tool used to constrain the timing and rates of past changes of the Earth’s surface, but it is also key for understanding future landscape response under a changing climate. Novel luminescence techniques, such as luminescence thermochronometry, thermometry and surface exposure dating, used to reconstruct rock cooling histories, erosion rates and palaeotemperatures, require the application of models describing charge trapping due to ionising radiation, and luminescence decay due to heat or light stimulation. However, it has become clear that to improve the precision and accuracy of these approaches a much deeper understanding of the physics underlying these techniques is required. The interdisciplinary project “Reducing Empiricism in luminesCence models to measuRE rATes of Earth surface processes” (RECREATE) combines solid state physics and geosciences. RECREATE aims at accurately constraining physical parameters in the feldspar lattice governing luminescence production and to develop a unified physically correct feldspar luminescence model to be used in luminescence thermochronometry and thermometry studies, with the overall goal of making feldspar luminescence techniques and applications more accurate, transparent and widely applicable.

Crop wild relatives (CWR) are wild plant species genetically related to cultivated crops. Their untapped diversity can enhance resilience to biotic and abiotic stress and the nutritional quality of modern crops. Wheat, sugar beet, and oilseed rape were selected by Pro-wild because of their importance to food security and EU farmers and because some of their wild relatives are endemic to Europe. Moreover, these CWRs constitute a rich and under-exploited resource needed to face challenges linked to climate change and the transition to low-input agriculture. The genetic diversity and vulnerability of these CWRs must be better characterized to optimize their conservation and utilization. The objectives of Pro-Wild are to identify priorities for in-situ conservation of the selected CWR gene pools, to survey and complement CWR genebanks collections, and to increase the use of CWRs in crop improvement. Pro-Wild associates 18 partners from 11 EU and associated countries with expertise in ecology, conservation, genomics, pathology, microbiology, plant breeding, agriculture, and sociology. Pro-Wild will compile and analyse CWR occurrence maps and perform new in-situ collections. It will predict the vulnerability of several CWR species and populations to ongoing climate changes. Ex-situ collections will be complemented with endangered CWRs accessions. Pro-Wild will investigate the resilience of CWR collections for relevant biotic and abiotic stresses. The identification of CWR-derived desired traits and their transfer into elite backgrounds will be done to promote CWR use. Overall, Pro-Wild specific goals will be coordinated with input from breeders, farmers, and consumers. Pro-Wild outcomes will contribute to European Green Deal initiatives through research, education, and training. It will serve the EU biodiversity and the Farm to Fork strategies by preserving, characterizing, and utilising wild species that have unique importance for the resilience of our food systems.

With the aim to increase organic farming to 25% by 2030, the EU recognizes the potential of organic farming to contribute to a climate neutral Europe by 2050 and other environmental EU-targets. However, to achieve these targets, it is important to step-up the capability and the capacity of organic farms to reduce GHG-emissions and remove carbon through sequestration. The overall aim of OrganicClimateNET is to establish a pilot network of 250 organic farms to adapt, test, improve and implement climate and carbon farming practices. Key to this are the peer-to-peer learning and knowledge exchanges between farmers organised in 24 hubs in 12 EU countries and facilitated by trained advisors. Concrete outputs are individual carbon farming strategies of the pilot farms as role models for the entire organic sector; 120+ climate and carbon knowledge materials, improved, translated and adapted to organic farming feeding into a decision support toolbox and freely accessible via the highly frequented Organic Farm Knowledge Platform; the evaluation of carbon farming business models (including MRV and rewarding schemes); upscaling to EU level in a quantitative assessment of the emission reduction and sequestration potential of the EU organic sector based on the data set from the 250 pilot farms; engagement with other EU-Projects and organic AKIS actors outside the network; and a network sustainability plan to sustain the network and knowledge exchange activities on the long term. Project results feed steadily in policy briefs and policy dialogue workshops to support effective climate policy design. The 4-year project gathers 17 partners (extension, farming associations, research) from 14 countries allowing exchange between countries with a mature organic sector and countries where organic farming is less developed.

In a world where the consequences of the climate change are already observable, the reduction of the aviation’s ecological footprint is undoubtedly essential. With 22% of total commercial flight departures being operated by regional aircraft, the introduction of more innovative concepts is necessary to achieving the net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 defined by the European Green Deal. In this context, HERACLES aims to define an ultra-efficient regional aircraft (UERA) concept, embedding innovative technologies, such as a hybrid electric propulsion system with high-performance batteries and optimized thermal engine (using 100% SAF), optimized propeller, advanced airframe and other enabling technologies for more electric aircraft. This concept targets a reduction of no less than 30% in CO2 emissions on typical regional routes (250NM or below), compared to a 2020 state-of-the-art aircraft. The project will benefit of a portfolio of demonstrations in regional thrust, to integrate technologies at high level of maturation (TRL5/6 at the end of the program), to support entry into service in 2035. The certification aspects will also take a major role in HERACLES. The project will coordinate the EASA involvement in all projects of the consortia (HERACLES, REG-01, REG-02 and REG-03), to contribute to the rulemaking for hybrid aircraft and deliver a route to CRL6. Furthermore, HERACLES will support the flight test demonstrator (FTD) assessment led by the REG-03 project, by providing the architecture and configuration assessment of fully integrated design of the demonstrator and the flight physics studies. It will also support the wind tunnel tests performed in this project by providing the design of the propeller and nacelle concept to be tested. With these activities defined for the UERA concept and the FTD, HERACLES will accelerate the penetration of innovative technologies in the regional aircraft market, to significantly participate to the aviation decarbonization.

NeuroWelfare in Cash Transfers Measures (CTs): Do Welfare Cash Transfers Show Different Brain Activity and Improve Equality? (NW) aims to pave the way for the interdisciplinary study of the brain functioning and the socio-cognitive impact on self and social perception in the experience of the two main paradigmatic cash transfer schemes: conditioned CTs (CCTs) and unconditioned CTs (UCTs). NW’s idea is born from my PhD effort, in which I studied a Basic Income pilot project, observing a mindset shift in the re-distributive beliefs and attitudes of community’ financiers, showing me the need for a neurophysiological understanding of CTs phenomena. NW’s achievability has been improved from the previous project’s application in its methodological operationalization, better defining the outcomes’ measurability and scalability to isolate effects of CTs’ on the brain. The assessment of social protection measures is usually done by looking at the behaviors of the welfare recipients. In addition, social neuroscience efforts are frequently focused on mental manifestations observed in the laboratory environments. What if the modern techniques to investigate brain activity would be applied to healthy individuals perceiving income support in their social environment? By utilizing an interdisciplinary and multidimensional approach, I pursue to combine the knowledge and the methodology of human sciences with those of social neurosciences, to detect and measure the effect of CTs’ on brain from three empirical intertwined perspectives: (1) neurophysiological, (2) cognitive and (3) interactional.I’ll train my interdisciplinary skills thanks to experienced supervisors in Iscte-CVTT and the University of Turin. NW tackles the complexity of redistribution social phenomena, advancing my career progress in the brand-new field of “Neurosociology”.

This project proposes the functionalisation of dense arrays of spintronic nanodevices called magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) for neuromorphic computing application. Neuromorphic computing is a field that proposes a novel computing architecture aimed at reducing energy consumption and enhancing computational capabilities compared to conventional computers. It mimics the Human brain where memory and information processing are physically intertwined. One key component is the synapse, which plays a crucial role in enabling the communication between neurons and serving as a dynamic, plastic memory where the strength of connections between neurons is stored. This characteristic allows for tuning these connections in a non-volatile and reversible manner, forming the foundation for intricate learning and memory processes. For this purpose, the field of spintronics will be employed, focusing on controlling electron spin. Spintronics has gained significant importance in data storage applications, and spintronics nanodevices such as MTJs have recently emerged as promising candidates for neuromorphic computing due to their robustness, multifunctionalities and compatibility with compatibility to metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. They hold strong appeal for the development of artificial synapses and neurons that mimic their biological counterparts due to their low power consumption and fast switching compared to traditional transistors. In addition, the nanoscale size of spintronic devices allows for the creation of large neural networks. The integration of memory and processing in these devices has the potential to revolutionize computational systems and strongly reduce energy consumption while increasing computational speed.
