user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Multigigabit interconnection using dispersion compensation and advanced soliton techniques'.

assistant: **Concept**

The primary objective of the project is to demonstrate 40 Gbit/s transmission over currently installed optical fibre lines at 1.55 um. To achieve this primary goal, two complementary objectives have been defined for the project:Investigation and development of non-linear soliton propagation techniques at 40 Gbit/s for a field trial over Dispersion Shifted Fibre (DSF) linesInvestigation and development of linear transmission techniques to undertake a field demonstration of the capability of 40 GHz transmission over standard fibre lines.Primary achievements for the first part of the project include:Preliminary linear field trial using MSSI achieving 10 Gbit/s RZ data transmission at BER of 10-11 over 140 km of installed fibre.Characterisation of DSF lines for soliton field trial and establishment of sub-systems for testbed.Preliminary design and specification for 40 Gbit/s electronic receiverDevelopment of advanced soliton propagation methods beyond 40 Gbit/s utilising loss-compensating dispersion-decreasing fibre (LCDDF).The overall expected achievement is the demonstration of the limitations and performance of 40 Gbit/s optical transmission technology over existing fibre lines. The development activities will evaluate and provide methodology to assess the future capability and impact of systems beyond 40 Gbit/s. Supported by the advanced technology aspects of the project a meaningful comparison of the transmission methods can be undertaken.Expected ImpactThe project provides a practical demonstration of high capacity (40 Gbit/s) transmission over two types of currently installed fibre lines. The expected impact will be the demonstration of the potential capability to upgrade existing fibre networks for higher capacity operation. The advanced communications work will sup

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Experimental and theoretical studies on grain boundary wetting'.

assistant: **Innovation**

We study the thermodynamics and kinetics of wetting at grain boundaries metallic materials, and its consequences of on structural evolution and mechanical properties.  The thermodynamics is controlled by the position of the wetting temperature with respect to the phase diagram. The kinetics is related to mass transport either by diffusion or by liquid flow. The consequences of the existence of a liquid film at the grain boundaries are both on the structural evolution (abnormal grain growth as well as on the mechanical properties (enhanced grain boundary sliding).  We will study both experimentally and theoretically these different aspects in various metallic systems (Al-Sn, Al-Ga, Al-Pb, Al-Sn-Pb, Mo-Ni).  The experimental approach will consist in optical metallography, SEM, study by X-ray diffractometry of grain boundarie's mobility, TEM, In siu TEM and mechanical testing associated with fracture analysis. The theoretical approach relies both on classical analytical work, and on the use of computer simulations at the mesos- copic scale.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'from gold to silver: streamlining metal-catalysed cross-coupling reactions' (2014-2020).

assistant: **Concept**

Silvercatpharma project aims at developing C-C cross-coupling reactions catalysed by d11-blocks metals, particularly silver, for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals in Novartis. It strives to have an impact in terms of cost, environment and international visibility because of the use of silver as an alternative catalyst. The project offers me a great opportunity to obtain further training, such as clusters preparation, computational and flow chemistry, and to define my final career in academia or industry because of the possibility of working in these two different environments.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Nuclear Reactions for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) is considered the best potential resource to determine the absolute neutrino mass scale. Moreover, if observed, it will signal that the total lepton number is not conserved and neutrinos are Majorana particles. Presently, this physics case is one of the most important research “beyond the Standard Model” and might guide the way towards a Grand Unified Theory of fundamental interactions.Since the ββ decay process involves nuclei, its analysis necessarily implies nuclear structure issues. The 0νββ decay rate can be expressed as a product of independent factors: the phase-space factors, the nuclear matrix elements (NME) and a function of the masses of the neutrino species.Thus the knowledge of the NME can give information on the neutrino mass, if the 0νββ decay rate is measured.The novel idea of NURE is to use nuclear reactions of double charge-exchange (DCE) as a tool to determine the ββ NME. In DCE reactions and ββ decay, the initial and final nuclear states are the same and the transition operators have the same spin-isospin structure. Thus, even if the two processes are mediated by different interactions, the NME are connected and the determination of the DCE cross-sections can give crucial information on ββ matrix elements. NURE plans to carry out a campaign of experiments using accelerated beams on different targets candidates for 0νββ decay. The DCE channel will be populated using (18O,18Ne) and (20Ne,20O) reactions by the innovative MAGNEX large acceptance spectrometer, which is unique in the world to measure very suppressed reaction channels at high resolution. The complete net involving the single charge-exchange and multi-step transfers characterized by the same initial and final nuclei will be also measured to study the rea

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Combining CT Scanning and Spectroscopy to Characterise Micro-Plastics, a Growing Threat to Seabirds and other Marine Animals' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Plastic debris is now a major source of anthropogenic pollution with >5 trillion fragments of micro-plastic in the world's oceans, and can lead to deleterious and often fatal consequences when ingested by seabirds and other marine animals, including hormonal disruption, chemical toxicity, or obstruction of digestive tract. In this action we propose to develop a standard method for characterisation of plastic fragments in the environment, using a combination of micro-CT scanning and FTIR, Raman spectroscopy to measure both physical parameters (size, shape, surface area) and chemical properties (primary polymers, additives, etc.) of individual fragments. We intend to apply the developed methodology to an existing collection of >10,000 plastic fragments extracted from living and dead seabirds over 10 years, and identify which properties of ingested plastics are associated with the greatest negative impact on seabird physiology and health outcomes. Analysis of preserved seabirds from spirit collections will provide historical context for the onset and rise of plastic contamination in seabirds over recent decades. The effect of environmental aging on plastics will be investigated by laboratory studies of several industrial polymers that comprise a major fraction of marine plastic pollution, identifying the spectroscopic signature of photo-chemical degradation under ambient marine conditions and in the acidic environment of seabird stomachs. With the increasingly ubiquitous presence of plastic debris in the environment, it is more important than ever that we understand the precise mechanisms by which that debris negatively impacts marine life so that we may mitigate those effects.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Advancing knowledge and acquiring expertise in shellfish research by investigating environmental, neuroendocrine and endocrine control of key stages in oyster aquaculture, using a rhythmic approach' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The rapid worldwide expansion of marine bivalve aquaculture has lead to a growing demand for hatchery production of seed. Increase in this production has however been hampered by a lack of physiological synchrony of individuals, with difficulties in 1) conditioning of broodstock and predicting when they will spawn, 2) metamorphosis of larvae into spat. The overall research objective of Neuroshell is to advance knowledge on the environmental, neuroendocrine and endocrine control of these key stages in bivalves. This will be done through a daily rhythms approach, by investigating the effect of daily environmental cycles on reproduction (sub-project 1) and metamorphosis (sub-project 2), and generating a profile of target neuroendocrine/endocrine factors at given stages under these conditions. Then determining whether these factors too exhibit daily rhythmicity. Work will be performed on the European oyster, Ostrea edulis, through in vivo experiments. Neuroshell is multidisciplinary and intersectoral, combining physiological, biochemical and molecular techniques with shellfish aquaculture and industry integration. It also includes a secondment in Spain. Transfer of knowledge and comprehensive training of the researcher are key elements of the action. The core focus of the researcher to date has been on reproductive neuroendocrinology and physiology in fish species for commercial aquaculture. To broaden her research scope dramatically, the project has been developed with the Scottish Association of Marine Science UK (host), to enable her to gain knowledge, skills, competencies, experience and contacts in an entirely new group of species of major commercial importance. Overall, results have the potential capacity to advance hatchery production of marine bivalves and fundament

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Production of high value-added carotenoids and provitamin a in cell factory crops', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Arytenoids are torpedoed pigments very widespread in nature. Dietary arytenoids are able to prevent chronic diseases (myocardial infarction, cancer, macular degeneration) and avitaminosis A. In a previous EU-financed effort, the proposing consortium has obtained genetically modified, high- beta- carotene yellow rice" a life saving plant in South -East Asia. The present proposal wishes to extend this approach to high value-added arytenoids and crops of European interest. Isolation of novel genes is envisaged, as well as agronomic, genomic and nutritional studies to address the "substantial equivalence" issue between GM and non-GM plants with altered carotene composition."

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Biochar for Carbon sequestration and large-scale removal of greenhouse gases (GHG) from the atmosphere'.

assistant: **Innovation**

In the context of climate change mitigation, technologies for removing the CO2 from the atmosphere are key challenges. The transfer of carbon from the atmosphere into useful carbon deposits is currently one promising option.Transferring biomass to carbon-rich materials with potential mega-scale application is an option to sequester carbon from plant material, taking it out of the short-term carbon cycle and therefore binding CO2 efficiently and even in a useful, productive, way into longer term non-atmospheric carbon pools. EuroChar will investigate carbon sequestration potentials that can be achieved by transforming plant biomass into charcoal (or Biochar) and add that to agricultural soils. Biochar production will be demonstrated using thermochemical (TC) or hydrothermal carbonization processes (HTC) that can produce energy and store 15 to 20% of the Carbon originally contained in the biomass. Detailed ISO-accredited whole Life Cycle Assessment will be carried out according to the International Reference Life Cycle Data System (ILCD) Handbook on LCA, for both TC and HTC production systems to evaluate the net Carbon sequestration capacity associated to Biochar production. Physico-chemical properties of Biochar will be analysed in a series of laboratory studies that will use standardized analytical protocols, and a specific phyto-toxicity test will be made using molecular approaches involving a model plant. Part of the study will also address the short versus long-term stability of Biochar using recently produced and aged charcoal samples coming from archaeological sites. Specific investigations will also be made to assess Biochar decomposition using CO2-efflux measurements from 13C labelled Biochar. Three large-scale field experiments will be made in Italy, France and

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'AIRPORT TOWER HARMONIZED CONTROLLER SYSTEM'.

assistant: **Objectives**

ATHOS will pioneer modern methods to help air traffic controllers handle the increasing volume of traffic world-wide. An initial survey will take stock of their experience and also from airport authorities to get a better idea of requirements and operational constraints for the tools that need to be provided in the future by Advanced SMGCS (Surface Movement Guidance and Control System) and other ATC and airport systems. From this and taking into account the new functionalities provided by SMGCS and the interconnecting systems, an integrated tower control prototype incorporating collective expertise in data presentation, standardisation and multimedia techniques will be developed and tested by future users. The project is expected to lead to improved airport capacity and efficiency, and better flight scheduling and punctuality.The increase of air traffic and the interconnecting systems of airports result in increased workload for air traffic controllers. It becomes then necessary to provide the controllers with new tools including the various aspects of ATC (Air Traffic Control), Apron Control and SMGCS (Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems).The study will start with a survey to extend and document the controllers' existing experience on future tools provided by A-SMGCS (Advanced SMGCS), other ATC and airport systems, in order to collect requirements from the controllers, the airport authorities (ADP, FAG, Aena, Swiss Control, etc.), and the specific operational constraints, in several European countries (starting with France, Germany, Spain and Switzerland, for instance). As a result, a common users' requirements document will be established.From that document, and taking into account the newly functionalities and information provided by SMGCS and the interconn

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Bio-sensing textiles to support health management' under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Integration of health monitoring tools into textiles brings the benefits of safety and comfort to the users. Instrumented clothes will provide remote monitoring of vitals signs, diagnostics to improve early illness detection and metabolic disorder and benefits to the reduction on medical social costs to the citizen. Ambulatory healthcare, isolated people, convalescent people and patients with chronic diseases are addressed. To date, developments in that field are mainly focused on physiological measurements (body temperature, electro-cardiogram, electromyogram, breath rhythm, etc.) with first applications targeting sport monitoring and prevention of cardiovascular risk.Biochemical measurements on body fluids will be needed to tackle very important health and safety issues. The BIOTEX project aims at developing dedicated biochemical-sensing techniques compatible with integration into textile. This goal represents a complete breakthrough, which allows for the first time the monitoring of body fluids via sensors distributed on a textile substrate and performing biochemical measurements. BIOTEX is addressing the sensing part and its electrical or optical connection to a signal processor.The approach aims at developing sensing patches, adapted to different targeted body fluids and biological species to be monitored, where the textile itself is the sensor. The extension to whole garment and the integration with physiological monitors is part of the roadmap of the consortium. The consortium consists of 8 partners from 4 countries. It includes two research institutes in the field of micro and nanotechnology, two SMEs active in clothing R&D and production, two universities leader in wearable bioengineering, and two companies expert in engineering and manufacturing of textiles fo

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Nanoscale Phovoltaics Laboratory On a Tip' (NanoPLOT) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Next generation solar cells based on metal halide perovskite (MHP) materials promise cheaper and more energy-efficient photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices compared to current silicon-based technologies. To further advance MHP technology, however, will require fundamental understanding of processes leading to energy losses, unstable operation conditions and premature aging. The macroscopic properties of optoelectronic MHP devices are the result of the complicated interplay between structure and function. Thus, the key to understanding MHP materials is to look at the many nano- and microscale structures, from sub-granular twin domains, over grain boundaries and interfaces to lateral variations in crystal orientations and facets. The aim of this project is to reveal fundamental nanoscale processes and explore the connections to the macroscopic properties of MHP materials. Therefore, we will develop NanoPLOT, an innovative microscopy platform combining the lateral resolution of state-of-the-art atomic force microscopy (AFM) with the high temporal and spectral resolution of ultrafast optical spectroscopy. NanoPLOT will not only allow spatially correlated mapping of, e.g., the local electron dynamics or photoemission spectra together with the nanoscale surface photovoltage, photocurrent or ion dynamics. The most exciting possibilities will come from entirely new imaging methods based on combinations of the available scanning probe and optical methods. Using the 2-10 nm wide AFM tip, we will address and excite individual nanostructures, enabling the characterization of optoelectronic properties at unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution. The new experimental capabilities will enable addressing some key challenges of MHP research, such as phase segregation and degrada
