user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Miniaturised Ultrasonic, Engineered-Structure and LTCC-Based Devices for Acoustics, Fluidies, Optics and Robotics' (MINUET) under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Minuets objective is to develop improved multifunctional, knowledge-based materials; new production processes and technologies for complex miniaturised functional structures and devices, based onelectroceramics. WP1 Materials and WP2 Integrated Multilateral Structures work closely together inapt on modelling of material properties as a function of compositions.In WP2, PZT, lead-free and the new-modelled compositions will be used to adapt frontier technologies, as LTCC structures, opening an opportunity for complex miniaturised devices. Presently, LTCC includes only passive components due to high reactivity of piezoelectric thick films with substrates. Modelling results will be verified at laboratory scale through preparation of powders and components and testing their properties. Best compositions will be scaled up and samples delivered to the end users in traditional form and in thick-film structures. The best ones will be modified further to comply with LTCC. LTCC structures can replace bulk components leading to enhanced performance with more degrees of functionality in robotics and integrated sensors (WP5 Devices for Robotics). WP3Devices for Fluidics and Optics covers work on engineered-engineered structure for adaptive photon crystals, unable filters and print heads with discrete assemblies replaced by integrated structures. WP4 Devices for Acoustics covers medical, NDT and process control applications.Models are used to calculate material specifications for WP1 and WP2 and design prototype devices to verify the models and test performance. MINUET has a vertical structure from material modelling to small-scale testing of compositions and technology, scaling up and testing devices. The output is the verified model and technology of new materials, their integratio

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fifth Framework proposal on 'Particle Inspection for Advanced New Photomask Applications'.

assistant: **Concept**

The industry roadmap calls for ICs with feature sizes of 100 nm after 2002. Due to the danger of catastrophic yield loss caused by small defects and due to the value of the wafers, volume production will require recurrent assessment of critical level masks prior to their application in the lithographic process in order to detect any deterioration (particles, damage). The project will develop a high speed mask inspection system (10 min. for a 6 reticle) with very high sensitivity (80 nm). This performance will be achieved through the development of high resolution DUV optics with long working distance, high speed/ accuracy/stability stage and fast real-time image processing. A photo-mask defect printability study at 193 nm will compare prototype performance to 100nm node manufacturing needs."

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Globular clusters as living fossils of the past of galaxies'.

assistant: **Concept**

Globular clusters (GCs) are enigmatic objects that hide a wealth of information. They are the living fossils of the history of their native galaxies and the record keepers of the violent events that made them change their domicile. This proposal aims to mine GCs as living fossils of galaxy evolution to address fundamental questions in astrophysics: (1) Do satellite galaxies merge as predicted by the hierarchical build-up of galaxies? (2) Which are the seeds of supermassive black holes in the centres of galaxies? (3) How did star formation originate in the earliest phases of galaxy formation? To answer these questions, novel population-dependent dynamical modelling techniques are required, whose development the PI has led over the past years. This uniquely positions him to take full advantage of the emerging wealth of chemical and kinematical data on GCs.Following the tidal disruption of satellite galaxies, their dense GCs, and maybe even their nuclei, are left as the most visible remnants in the main galaxy. The hierarchical build-up of their new host galaxy can thus be unearthed by recovering the GCs’ orbits. However, currently it is unclear which of the GCs are accretion survivors. Actually, the existence of a central intermediate mass black hole (IMBH) or of multiple stellar populations in GCs might tell which ones are accreted. At the same time, detection of IMBHs is important as they are predicted seeds for supermassive black holes in galaxies; while the multiple stellar populations in GCs are vital witnesses to the extreme modes of star formation in the early Universe. However, for every putative dynamical IMBH detection so far there is a corresponding non-detection; also the origin of multiple stellar populations in GCs still lacks any uncontrived explanation. Th

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'An integrated platform of novel cost and energy-efficient conversion technologies producing liquid and gaseous bioFUELS from sustainable biogenic residues validated for direct use in fuel Cells' (Fuels-C).

assistant: **Innovation**

Advanced biofuels represent an important piece of the puzzle in the EU’s quest for climate neutrality as they contribute to decarbonising transport sectors and decrease the EU’s dependence on fossil fuels. Fuels-C aims to contribute to this quest by increasing the availability of two liquid and two gaseous advanced biofuels for maritime and road transports, produced from biogenic organic wastes and CO2. Fuels-C will develop an integrated platform of innovative energy-efficient conversion technologies validated at TRL5 including bioelectrochemically assisted CH4 production, bioelectrochemical NH3 production, gasification, microbial electrosynthesis, and electroreduction. Various biogenic residues (biodegradable and non-biodegradable) will be converted under mild conditions into CH4, NH3, formic acid and ethanol, by two main production routes, using renewable energy, thereby enabling efficient energy surplus storage as chemicals. The 4 biofuels can be used as drop-in, but Fuels-C will also test them in FCs for electricity production: gaseous NH3 and CH4 in SOFCs, liquid ethanol and formic acid in DLFCs. Power density, energy efficiency and stability of each process will be validated. The technologies will be modelled at process level, for the description of interfacial phenomena, and at system level, leading to an integrated processes Digital Twin. This second model, together with a feedstocks mapping tool, will provide relevant data for circularity assessment, cost calculation, benchmarking and replication in other relevant use cases. This is expected to create new businesses opportunities and strengthen the EU's leadership in science and technology and in the biofuels market. Fuels-C gathers an interdisciplinary consortium composed of EU’s prominent RTOs and Universitie

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Control of Large-scale Stochastic Hybrid Systems for Stability of Power Grid with Renewable  Energy' (CONENE).

assistant: **Innovation**

The increasing uptake of renewable energy sources and liberalization of electricity markets are significantly changing power system operations. To ensure stability of the grid, it is critical to develop provably safe feedback control algorithms that take into account uncertainties in the output of weather-based renewable generation and in participation of distributed producers and consumers in electricity markets. The focus of this proposal is to develop the theory and algorithms for control of large-scale stochastic hybrid systems in order to guarantee safe and efficient grid operations. Stochastic hybrid systems are a powerful modeling framework. They capture uncertainties in the output of weather-based renewable generation as well as complex hybrid state interactions arising from discrete-valued network topologies with continuous-valued voltages and frequencies. The problems of stability and efficiency of the grid in the face of its changes will be formulated as safety and optimal control problems for stochastic hybrid systems. Using recent advances in numerical optimization and statistics, provably safe and scalable numerical algorithms for control of this class of systems will be developed. These algorithms will be implemented and validated on realistic power grid simulation platforms  and will take advantage of recent advances in sensing, control and communication technologies for the grid. The end outcome of the project is better quantifying and controlling effects of increased uncertainties on the stability of the grid. The societal and economic implications of this study are tied with the value and price of a secure power grid. Addressing the questions formulated in this proposal will bring the EU closer to its ambitious renewable energy goals.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Cyclical and Linear Timing Modes in Development' (CYCLODE) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Organismal development requires proper timing of events such as cell fate choices, but the mechanisms that control temporal patterning remain poorly understood. In particular, we know little of the cyclical timers, or ‘clocks’, that control recurring events such as vertebrate segmentation or nematode molting. Furthermore, it is unknown how cyclical timers are coordinated with the global, or linear, timing of development, e.g. to ensure an appropriate number of cyclical repeats. We propose to elucidate the components, wiring, and properties of a prototypic developmental clock by studying developmental timing in the roundworm C. elegans. We build on our recent discovery that nearly 20% of the worm’s transcriptome oscillates during larval development – an apparent manifestation of a clock that times the various recurring events that encompass each larval stage. Our aims are i) to identify components of this clock using genetic screens, ii) to gain insight into the system’s architecture and properties by employing specific perturbations such as food deprivation, and iii) to understand the coupling of this cyclic clock to the linear heterochronic timer through genetic manipulations. To achieve our ambitious goals, we will develop tools for mRNA sequencing of individual worms and and for their developmental tracking and microchamber-based imaging. These important advances will increase temporal resolution, enhance signal-to-noise ratio, and achieve live tracking of oscillations in vivo. Our combination of genetic, genomic, imaging, and computational approaches will provide a detailed understanding of this clock, and biological timing mechanisms in general. As heterochronic genes and rhythmic gene expression are also important for controlling stem cell fates, we foresee that t

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'The role of area-based conservation measures in reducing impact from agriculture, conserving biodiversity, and supporting local communities’ livelihood' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Pressures on natural landscapes due to soybean and cattle ranching have been increasing in Brazil over the last decades. This is largely driven by exports, including to the European Union, making these commodities some of the most important threats to biodiversity and non-timber forest products. Some of these products can be used for medicinal and food security purposes by local communities, and often are managed either by women or men differently. Area-based conservation measures are an important global conservation strategy and include the newly defined “other effective area-based conservation measures” (OECMs). OECMs can play a larger role in nature conservation in areas managed by local communities, yet it remains unclear to what extent they are contributing to conservation. This project will evaluate the impact of soybean and cattle expansion in Brazil on biological and cultural diversity and gender, and the contribution of OECMs on their conservation. Specifically, I will (i) identify species used by local communities and assess their conservation status as well as potential gender-differences in their uses; (ii) analyze the impact of soybean and cattle ranching expansion on biocultural diversity and the potential gender-biased consequences; and (iii) evaluate the contribution of different OECM-types to the conservation of cultural and biological diversity. To do that, this action will combine methods and techniques across disciplines (literature review on the relationship between species and gender) and geoprocessing and statistical analysis (land-use change and matching analysis). Expected results include three scientific publications and outreach activities to amplify societal awareness about the impact of agriculture on culture and nature and provide evidence

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Quartz Enrichment Enabling Near-Zero Silicon Production'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The QUEEN project, with its strong consortium of participants from eight countries, addresses a significant challenge - EU's heavy reliance on external sources for critical raw materials, especially metallurgical silicon (MG-Si). Currently, over 80% of MG-Si, vital for high-tech applications and EU's sustainability ambitions, is imported mainly from China.QUEEN aims to exploit an underutilized resource; quartz sand from European quarries, to domestically produce MG-Si in a sustainable and efficient way. The unique approach combines raw material extraction and refinement with an environmental focus, leveraging waste materials in the process. This strategy is projected to bolster EU's MG-Si production capacity, foster sector-specific innovation, and advance eco-friendly practices.The QUEEN project's overall objective is to create an environmentally friendly process for producing metallurgical silicon (MG-Si) from quarry sands, with near-zero CO2 emissions. This transformational approach could turn any EU quartz quarry into a potential MG-Si reservoir. Moreover, the technologies developed could be adapted to other materials.The technical objective is to devise a new mineralogical separation process based on flotation for quarry sands extraction. This objective aims to pioneer a more effective and greener alternative process for refining high-purity quartz and Potassium Feldspars. Comprising R&D and industry stakeholders from mineral separation and MG-Si refinement fields, the project plans pilot tests at TRL 7. QUEEN aims to cover 56% of MG-Si EU demand by 2032 by recovering more than 300Mt MG-Si from sands, alongside saving about 232,000 Mt CO2 by substituting coal with cleaner materials. Like this, QUEEN aims to support the EU strategic autonomy and sustainability, mirro

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Eavesdropping on the tropics: assessment of climate change impacts on amphibians through passive acoustic monitoring' (EAVESTROP) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Recent climate change is a major threat for conservation of amphibian diversity, the most endangered group of vertebrates. Species distribution models derived from functional traits have been proposed to provide more robust predictions of future climate-induced shifts in environmental suitability than commonly used correlative models. The proposed project aims, for the first time, to examine species vulnerability to climate change through a novel integration of two scientific disciplines, bioacoustics and biogeography, thanks to the use of new tools in acoustic monitoring, signal processing and species distribution modelling. We will first explore how a key and environment-dependent behavioural trait in amphibian anurans (i.e., reproductive calling behaviour) responds across climatic gradients and subsequently expand these findings into larger temporal and spatial scales through mechanistic approach at two levels of organisation, species and community. The MSCA is proposed as a 3-year GF. One of the most cited research groups in ecology (UFG) will host the fellow during the outgoing phase in Brazil, where data collection, first analyses, and training in biogeography will be conducted. The third year of return to the host organisation in France, with a leading group in bioacoustics and signal processing (MNHN), will be devoted to training in acoustic diversity indices, software development, and most transfer and dissemination activities. The MSCA will enable the fellow to be one of the first researchers with expertise in both bioacoustics and biogeography and hence will open up the best career possibilities for him and new collaboration opportunities for the host organisations. As the first using this novel approach, the MSCA is expected to provide advances in these two

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Applications of Abstract Differential Geometry to Quantum Gravity: a Sheaf and Category-Theoretic Approach'.

assistant: **Concept**

The propesed mathematical physics research project is in the context of quantum gravity (QG). In view of the grave failure of classical differential geometric methods in attempts to quantize general relativity (GR) by retaining a smooth background geometr ical spacetime manifold, we shall take an alternative combinatory- algebraic route. The sought after QG has also been expected to shed more light on the problem of singularities and associated unphysical infinities assailing the pointed macroscopic spacet ime continuum of GR. Thus, to both ends, Mallios' Calculus and in extenso, base manifold-free, sheaf-theoretic Abstract Differential Geometry (ADG) will be applied to a finitistic-algebrainc scenario for quantum spacetime struture and dynamics that has be en recently proposed by this applicant in connection with sorkin's discrete causal set approach to Lorentzian QG. Also, again due to the inadequacy of the differential manifold model for spacetime at Planck scales, ma noncommutative topology, its sheaf the ory, and the concomitant organization of the resulting noncommutative sheaves' into a pointless quantum category or quantum topos suitable for addressing deep logico-geometrical issues in QG, will be developed.
