user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Development of a workplace friendly and environmentally acceptable hard chromium plating process' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

In Europe, the hard chromium electroplating industry still uses solutions which contain hexavalent chromium compounds (Cr6+) for deposition of hard chromium coatings. These coatings are used successfully for many engineering applications where corrosion and wear resistance are of prime importance such as, e.g., in car, machine and especially in pulp and paper machine components. However, hexavalent chromium compounds used for electrodeposition are recognised to be very toxic. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has proved that hexavalent chromium is considered to be carcinogenic, but trivalent chromium (Cr3+) is not /1/. This leads to occupational risks when working with Cr6+. Furthermore, Cr6+ requires much waste treatment and leads of a large quantity of sludge-disposal. The main objective of this project is to forward a more extensive industrial scale use of chromium (Cr3+) baths in hard chromium plating in Europe, because of their better occupational hygiene and safety. Based on the already developed - but not yet well modified - laboratory scale trivalent hard chromium baths at Ecole des Mines (Saint-Etienne, France), it is intended to develop a new, economical, industrial scale pilot trivalent plating process for hard chromium coatings. The deposited coatings must achieve the same functional properties as the coatings electroplated from hexavalent chromium solutions. After developing the pilot bath, it is also intended to transfer it on an industrial scale via the industrial partners and their process modifications, so that the required economical aspects and quality of the coatings are achieved. This project is very important for the European hard chromium electroplating industry, which confronts strong competition from the producers in the Far

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Solvation effects on photo-induced Metal-Activated Oxidative-Addition Reactions of Hydrocarbons and Halocarbons' (METOXAD).

assistant: **Concept**

The role of solvation processes is fundamental to the understanding of chemical reaction mechanisms of importance in areas such as organic synthesis, catalysis, atmospheric chemistry and industrial processes.  This proposal presents a systematic study of a solvent perturbed bimolecular chemical reaction.  The comparison of the solvated reaction dynamics with existing gas phase data will allow the determination of the role-played by the solvent on the reaction mechanism.  The photo-induced oxidative-addition reactions of neutral Group 2 Metal atoms with simple hydrocarbons and halocarbons have been selected for study in the presence of the solvent in this case inert rare gas solids. Specifically, the Ca + CH3F system has been chosen for examination as recently experimental data has become available for the photo-induced reaction, free in the gas phase and deposited on large argon clusters.  Therefore the applicant proposes to study the fully solvated (matrix-isolated) reaction.  Generally, oxidative-addition reactions conducted under solid-state conditions result in metal atom photo-insertion.  Although fragmentation does occur, as in the gas phase, cage-exit is not favoured and fragment recombination processes dominate.  Therefore following an identification of the reaction products and an assessment of the solvation effects in the solid-state using steady-state FTIR spectroscopy the dynamics of the excited state reaction will be investigated.  The time-resolved measurements of a metal+molecule oxidative-addition reaction will be completed for the first time, using Step-Scan FTIR spectroscopy and the facilities and resources of the Low Temperature Spectroscopy Group at NUI-Maynooth.  The study of reactions under these extreme states of matter (gas phase and solid-state)

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'LOWering underwater NOISE Radiation from waterborne transport' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Underwater radiated noise (URN) by ships is one of main anthropogenic sources of noise in the marine environment. Transport by ship has been hailed as a green mean of transportation, at the same time, trapped under the water surface, the noise has been overlooked when considering the impact and the effects of human activities on marine species. On 11 March 24, a notice from the EC has been issued on the threshold values for the Marine Strategy Framework Directive 2008/56/EC. For continuous URN, the threshold for the habitat size of target species exceeding the Level of onset of Biologically adverse Effects (LOBE) has been set to 20%. While this notice does not set a specific limit for ship noise levels, it requires member states to evaluate the state of conservation of waters and take actions as needed. Many projects have brought to light that the marine environment is influenced by marine traffic to a level and in ways that were not obvious to predict. E.g. AQUO project has drawn attention to the effects on different marine species. SONIC looked into the noise generated by cavitating propeller. Both projects led to the development of a series of criteria to quantify the harmfulness of URN and measures to reduce it, though without demonstrating the measures in full scale. These projects were followed by PIAQUO and SATURN that have moved the focus towards regulating the noise emission of ships and implementing solutions for its reduction. The  LOWNOISER project aims to bring the effort towards quieter ocean closer to reality than previous projects by showing the effectiveness of noise reduction solutions, i.e. technologies, measures and management strategies, that have a high TRL with full/large scale demonstrators. Also, the project is developing better tools for predic

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Asynchronous Time-domain Neural Recording Interfaces', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Implantable neural recording devices are being used by neuroscientists and neurosurgeons for monitoring the behaviour of particular parts of the brain. With the advancement of microelectronics manufacturing processes, wireless multi-channel neural recording systems have become available during the last decade. However, the capabilities of neural recording implants are still limited by their power density in order not to harm the surrounding tissue by heat generation, and by their total power consumption which limits the operational longevity of the implant. If the operational capabilities and longevity of the neural recording implants are to be improved, new methods of power consumption reduction are required.I will address the power consumption reduction problem in a Marie Skłodowska-Curie European Fellowship with Prof. Serdijn at the Dept. of Microelectronics of TU Delft. I will try to solve the problem by researching asynchronous time-domain signal processing and by creating a generalized implementation framework for the time-domain signal processing applications. During the course of the project, I will be able to collaborate with experts in biomedical circuits, signal processing, and microfabrication to conclude this research project successfully. The proposed research will result in a working prototype ultra-low power asynchronous time-domain wireless neural recording chip, and at least three peer-reviewed research articles will be published.Undertaking this research along with formal training and mentoring will enhance my academic profile, scientific experience, and expertise in bioelectronics. The proposed research is in line with the scientific aims of EU to improve lifelong health and wellbeing of all. By the successful completion of the project, new methodolo

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Integrated Water Quality Information System' (2002-2006).

assistant: **Concept**

Specific Objectives:1. To investigate the current reporting mechanisms of DG ENV in the Water area. This requires close collaboration between the JRC and especially DG Environment B1, but also EEA and MS, including participation in the relevant working groups on reporting;2. To propose a first design of the reporting system for water data to DG ENV, within the technological options currently available and those on the horizon. Anticipated milestones and schedule - 2003 First and Second Quarter: explorative contacts to the stakeholders - 2003 Third Quarter: In-depth discussion with DG Environment - 2003 Forth Quarter: Draft report to be circulated to stake holders; Study of informatics solutions based on the current reporting system.Planned Deliverables 1.1 Report on current reporting mechanisms 2.1 Report on Design of an information system.Summary of the Action:The aim of this action is to investigate in depth the feasibility of a strategic project to receive, process, interpret and report on the delivery of water quality data (nutrients, contaminants, other) by the Member States as part of reporting requirements under the EU water legislation. This activity will streamline data reporting for inland and coastal waters presently performed by the Member States as required by EU Directives. The issues are complex, ranging from the timely arrival of the information to the Commission to the technical check that the data provided are sufficient for the monitoring purposes foreseen in the Directives and to the subsequent evaluation of compliance. Currently, the process is laborious and significant improvements could be made, including to help submitters in the situation where the same data must be delivered to several European bodies. The overall objective of this Action is to

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Ecns'99' in the context of a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

In modern materials research the complete knowledge of the arrangement and dynamics of the atoms, molecules or their larger assemblies, and of their magnetic properties is required. Due to their unique properties neutrons played essential role in condensed matter research in the past 50 years. Now recent surveys by the European Science Foundation of OECD Megascience Forum have pointed out also the future importance of neutron beam research and urging need for new neutron sources and novel instrumentation.The most important forum of the relevant research community is the series of International Conferences on Neutron Scattering", started in 1988 in Grenoble. The first special "European Conference" was organised in 1996 in Switzerland. The European Neutron Scattering Association (ENSA) has decided to hold the second European Conference on Neutron Scattering (ECNS'99) in Budapest, Hungary, September 1-4, 1999. Due to the co-ordination of ENSA a fairly well organised neutron scattering community has been formed in Europe.National associations, European Union funded networks and R&D projects act very stimulating on the user activity and harmonisation of the liaison between neutron centres and the user community. Stable operation of the major existing neutron source facilities in Europe through the past few years, recent start-up of SINQ in Switzerland, current construction of the Garching high-flux reactor and the planned front-rank sources like ESS and AUSTRON open a really promising perspective in this field of research.Considering the extensive development around the neutron sources in America and the Pacific region ECNS'99 will be an important forum not only for the nearly 5000 neutron scientists in Europe but for many colleagues from the other regions as well.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Inverse Problems'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Inverse problems constitute an interdisciplinary field of science concentrating on the mathematical theory and practical interpretation of indirect measurements. Their applications include medical imaging, atmospheric remote sensing, industrial process monitoring, and astronomical imaging. The common feature is extreme sensitivity to measurement noise. Computerized tomography, MRI, and exploration of the interior of earth by using earthquake data are typical inverse problems where mathematics has played an important role. By using the methods of inverse problems it is possible to bring modern mathematics to a vast number of applied fields. Genuine scientific innovations that are found in mathematical research, say in geometry, stochastics, or analysis, can be brought to real life applications through modelling. The solutions are often found by combining recent theoretical and computational advances. The study of inverse problems is one of the most active and fastest growing areas of modern applied mathematics, and the most interdisciplinary field of mathematics or even science in general.The exciting but high risk problems in the research plan of the PI include mathematics of invisibility cloaking, invisible patterns, practical algorithms for imaging, and random quantum systems. Progress in these problems could have a considerable impact in applications such as construction of metamaterials for invisible optic fibre cables, scopes for MRI devices, and early screening for breast cancer. The progress here necessitates international collaboration. This will be realized in upcoming programs on inverse problems. The PI is involved in organizing semester programs in inverse problems at MSRI in 2010, Isaac Newton Institute in 2011, and Mittag-Leffler -institute in 2012.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Development and Analysis of Left-Handed Materials' (DALHM), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Left-handed (LH) materials are composite materials with novel and unique electromagnetic properties, which are not determined by the fundamental physical properties of their constituents but by the shape and the distribution of specific patterns included in them. LH materials have the unique property of having both the effective permittivity and the effective permeability negative. The aim of this proposal is the theoretical understanding, analysis, development and testing of LH materials, and also the investigation of their feasibility for commercial telecommunication applications. These applications include RF absorbers, radomes, wide-angle impedance matching sheets for phased array antennas, generation of nearly divergence-free RF beams, RF lenses, variable negative filters and remote imaging.DESCRIPTION OF WORKThe work plan is divided into three technical work packages (WP), in addition to a fourth work package (WP4) devoted to the management and the dissemination of the project results. WP1 is devoted to theoretical understanding and to development of modeling tools and characterization techniques for parameter determination. The validity of the modelling tools will be tested through comparison of the theoretical data with experimental ones obtained in the other workpackages. Detailed simulations and modelng of LH structures, both periodic and random, will provide a CAD toolbox for LH-based building blocks and demonstrators. WP2 addresses the development and procedures for the fabrication of candidate LH structures. The fabrication of the active patterns will be done using thin film techniques. The inactive matrix in which these patterns reside will be made of various suitable materials, such as quartz, glass, or Rexolite", a thermo set cross-linked polystyrene mat

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'EXPANDING SKILLS2SCALE ALLIANCE TO ENHANCE THE ACADEMIA-ENTERPRISE COLLABORATIONS FOR DEEP TECH INNOVATION'.

assistant: **Concept**

Scale2Connect aims to enhance Europe's innovation ecosystems by expanding and adapting the successful Skills2Scale model to new regions, with a particular focus on deep tech fields. The project aims to bridge the gap between well-connected innovation hubs and emerging ecosystems, fostering balanced regional development and strengthening academia-enterprise collaborations across Europe and beyond.The genesis of Scale2Connect lies in the recognition of the growing disparities in innovation capacities across European regions, particularly in the realm of deep tech. While some areas boast flourishing innovation hubs with strong academia-industry links, others struggle to build the necessary ecosystem to support deep tech innovation and entrepreneurship. This imbalance not only hinders the overall competitiveness of Europe in the global innovation landscape but also exacerbates regional economic disparities.The project builds upon the achievements of Skills2Scale, which has demonstrated significant impact in empowering Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the field of deep tech and  Beyond 5G technologies. Skills2Scale successfully established a model for enhancing the innovation and entrepreneurial capacities of HEIs, fostering closer ties with industry, and supporting the development of cutting-edge technologies. Scale2Connect seeks to extend this success to other regions and deep tech domains, recognizing the potential for transformative impact across a broader European landscape.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Mining for Metals in a Massive Spectroscopic Survey of the Intergalactic Medium' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The researcher has demonstrated excellence in developing new techniques for detecting, measuring and modelling the intergalactic medium (IGM) and its relation to galaxy formation. He has been particularly focussed on recent incarnations of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-II & -III) and is a key member of the team using observations of the IGM in a massive spectroscopic survey of the distant universe (SDSS-III's Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey or BOSS) to measure dark energy via its signature in large scale structure. This is allowing the researcher to improve our understanding of dark energy and the coevolution of galaxies and the IGM.The IGM is the diffuse medium between galaxies. It is the reservoir that fuels star formation, some of which has been reprocessed by galactic outflows. This gas is observed via absorption imprinted on the spectra of distant quasars as the light passes along the line-of-sight to us. The BOSS survey has already found, and taken spectra of, more than five times as many high redshift quasars as were previously known (>60000) in its 2 years of operation. By its end, in autumn 2013, this increase will be an order of magnitude. The researcher is an active participant in building this sample. In parallel, the survey measures large scale structure (and so dark energy) using the locations 1.5 million galaxies.This researcher has spent seven years pursuing these interests in North America. He proposes to return to Europe to diversify these efforts at the Institute for Cosmology and Gravitation (ICG). The ICG provides a wealth of expertise in areas that represent natural extensions to the researchers current efforts: galaxy formation and the measurement of large scale structure. The ICG takes a lead in the galaxy survey portion of BOSS, but
