user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Probing nuclear parton dynamics in Heavy-Ion Collisions with Hard Probes' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Perturbative QCD (pQCD) derived from first principles, is used to predict experimental observations involving large momentum transfer, such as high-energy jet productions in proton-proton collisions, and the strong interaction between the jet and the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) medium created in nucleus-nucleus collisions. Recent experimental observations have shown that stronger energy-loss mechanism is at play for jets with large transverse momentum, which current perturbative approaches failed to describe. Utilizing an incoherent approach, I will derive an improved energy-loss mechanism that can provide accurate description of the nuclear modification at large jet momentum, which can restore the predictive power of pQCD and allow us to extract the transport property of the hot nuclear medium. The theory of pQCD also anticipates a saturation phenomenon, whereby the density of gluons tends to arrive at equilibrium between the splitting and recombination of gluon quantum fluctuations as the momentum fraction becomes smaller. Recent theoretical development have mitigated the negativity and instability problem that appears in next-to-leading order calculations of forward jet productions under the Color Glass Condensate framework that takes into account the gluon saturation phenomenon. I will also develop a numerical program which incorporates this new approach to implement saturation effects in order to provide a reliable tool in search of saturation signal in current proton-nucleus collisions. The electromagnetic (EM) properties of the nucleus is also of great interest in ultra-peripheral collision (UPC) physics, where the EM form-factor of the nucleus under the GTMD prescription provides a 5-dimensional Wigner distribution of the nucleus. I will also construct a framework

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Family life courses, intergenerational exchanges and later life health' (FAMHEALTH) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The overall aim of this research programme is to uncover how family life courses influence health and well-being in later adulthood, whether family related strengths or disadvantages relevant to health offset or compound socio-economic sources of disadvantage, and the extent to which these associations are influenced by societal factors. An important element will be to consider the role of intergenerational influences, including support flows. The geographical focus will be on Europe and the methodological focus on the advanced quantitative analysis of large scale longitudinal data sets. These data sets, chosen for their complementary strengths, will include both country specific and cross national sources.  Three major interlinked strands of work will be undertaken. These will focus on 1) Impacts of parenting and partnership histories on health and mortality in mid and later life. 2) Intergenerational support exchanges: demographic, cultural and policy influences and effects on health of both providers and receivers. 3) An over arching theme to be addressed in the above strands and consolidated in the third is how investments in family and social networks are related to socio-economic disparities in later life health and mortality. The programme is will bring together perspectives from a range of disciplines to address issues of great relevance to current policy challenges in Europe. It is challenging because of the problem of dealing with issues of health selection and possible bias arising from various kinds of missing data which will require methodological care and innovation. Results will contribute to the development of theory, the development of methods and provide substantive knowledge relevant to the health and well-being of older Europeans.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'SUSTAINABLE MEMBRANE DISTILLATION FOR INDUSTRIAL WATER REUSE AND DECENTRALISED DESALINATION APPROACHING ZERO WASTE' (MEloDIZER) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

MEloDIZER implements high-performance membranes and modules in strategic applications of membrane distillation (MD), hence providing the decisive step for the success of MD. These core components are fabricated with a focus on feasible wide uptake and on sustainability, substituting harmful materials and protocols with >80% of benign solvents and relying on green chemistry principles. Both flat-sheets and innovative hollow-fibres are produced, striking the optimum between productivity and energy efficiency, as well as minimising fouling/wetting phenomena, also by applying novel sacrificial coatings while membranes are in situ. Optimised modules are developed with a focus on hydrodynamics and energy recovery improvements. These activities are strongly supported by sustained modelling tasks, conducted at different scales to (i) control the relationship between membrane properties and performance, (ii) customise module geometry, and (iii) increase system efficiency and automation. The membranes and modules are thus rationally installed as core components of four MD prototypes spanning three orders of magnitude of productivity. Two prototypes (2-5 m3/day, 0.5-2 m3/day) are demonstrated in industrial facilities (textile, beverage, chemical industries) to reuse wastewater (70-90%), thus reducing water footprint and approaching zero waste, as well as to recovery valuable nutrients as secondary raw materials from aquaculture wastewater. Two prototypes (50-100 L/day, 10-20 L/day) are demonstrated as low-cost, ready-to-use, passive, autonomous, decentralised units, delivering drinking water from saline and challenging sources at community and family level. All prototypes are run with 90-100% sustainable energy from waste heat and/or solar energy, with careful designs that maximis

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Small satellites’ strategic analysis of realization potential and commercialization techniques' (SatStart).

assistant: **Concept**

A formation of small satellites, as developed within the ERC Advanced Grant ""NetSat"", promises great market potential because of failure tolerance and low cost at the same time, and large growth prospects for small satellites - a disruptive technology with the potential to change current “rules of the game”, becoming a feasible option for industrial application thanks to tremendous cost reductions as compared to large satellites (lower weight, shorter development cycles/ time-to-market, and lower risk). The commercial applications for the ERC “NetSat” project are three-fold: (1) communication (particularly in the machine to machine (M2M) context), (2) traffic management (e.g., for autonomous driving), and (3) earth observation (where larger numbers of small satellites offer higher temporal resolution). As space for the operation of small satellite formations is restricted and primarily US-based, VC-backed start-ups are already competing in the market (e.g., SpaceX, OneWeb), large-scale and timely investments are needed for the ZfT to select and implement the most appropriate business model to successfully compete in this market.None of the competitors in the small satellite market seem to focus on providing M2M services, and they operate a constellation instead of a formation of satellites, i.e., the satellites are controlled individually from the ground, which makes formations not only technologically superior but also in line with the upcoming trend of connected devices. For timely commercialization, the ERC PoC Grant will provide the needed financial resources for securing IP and an evaluation of 4 potential business models - i.e., (1) a vendor-, (2) a licensing-, (3) a system provider- and (4) a data provider strategy, and the drafting of a business plan within 12

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Advanced BiomEdical OPTICAL Imaging and Data Analysis'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Biomedical imaging is a research field that is producing ground breaking scientific discoveries that enhance the health and life quality of European citizens and have a huge economic impact. In order to maintain Europe’s leading position in the field, it is crucial to invest in the people who will lead R&D, and to promote the academic-private sector partnerships that will transfer the novel technologies to the market. In order to meet these needs, BE-OPTICAL will provide a unique and structured training programme to 14 ESRs in a wide range of optical imaging technologies and signal processing tools, including fluorescence spectroscopy and microscopy, optical coherence tomography, optogenetics, engineered nanomaterials and signal processing tools. The research is structured in 4 WPs: super-resolution optical imaging for the analysis of cellular processes (WP1), high-resolution optical imaging of cardiac tissue (WP2), advanced instrumentation for ophthalmic imaging (WP3), and optical components, methods and software for image analysis (WP4). Comprising 7 leading academic groups and 2 non-academic partners in 5 European countries, BE-OPTICAL brings together an interdisciplinary team of physicists, engineers and medical doctors, with complementary expertise in optical imaging, nanotechnology, computer science, complex systems and data analysis. The non-academic partners are a leading company in fluorescence instrumentation and an internationally recognised ophthalmology clinic, with the most advanced technology and expertise in ocular diseases. The training programme will provide the ESRs with a broad understanding of how a wide range of optical imaging technologies and data processing tools work, and will open for them a wide range of job opportunities. The ESRs will apply

user: Describe how 'The most cosmopolitan animal migration: phylogeography and population genomics of the butterfly Vanessa cardui' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The migratory strategy is an evolutionary response to heterogeneity in either time or space that is common in animals, including many insects. The dispersal of myriads of insects has relevant economic consequences with examples including the pollination of agricultural systems, the association with pest outbreaks and the spread of infectious diseases. The case of the butterfly Vanessa cardui is an ideal model to study population dynamics of insect migrations because the species is distributed worldwide, it does not perform diapause and is extremely polyphagous. While this cosmopolitan butterfly represents what is potentially the widest distributional range of any migratory species, its migratory behavior is poorly known. In this project I propose to perform a comprehensive study of V. cardui genetic population structure, including an analysis of its worldwide migratory routes, the genetic causes and consequences of migration, aspects of the physiology of its migratory habits and possible outcomes of future climatic changes. This multidisciplinary project will involve the use of new technological and theoretical advances in next-generation sequencing, genomic analysis and coalescent-based phylogeography. The exceptional amount of specimens and data that will be assembled will represent a precious resource for future research on population genetics and ecology. Given the biological traits of this remarkable animal, results will have a strong impact and will attract the attention of researchers from different disciplines, and V. cardui will emerge as a model organism for the study of worldwide migrations.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Development of Aero Engine Component Manufacture using Laser Additive Manufacturing'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The concept of the MERLIN project is to reduce the environmental impact of air transport using Additive Manufacturing (AM) techniques in the manufacture of civil aero engines. MERLIN will develop AM techniques, at the level 1 stage, to allow environmental benefits including near 100% material utilisation, current buy to fly ratios result in massive amounts of waste, no toxic chemical usage and no tooling costs, to impact the manufacture of future aero engine components. All of these factors will drastically reduce emissions across the life-cycle of the parts. There will also be added in-service benefits because of the design freedom in AM. Light-weighting, and the performance improvement of parts will result in reduced fuel consumption and reduced emissions. MERLIN will seek to develop the state-of-the-art by producing higher performance additive manufactured parts in a more productive, consistent, measurable, environmentally friendly and cost effective way.The MERLIN consortia has identified the following areas where a progression of the state-of-the art is needed to take advantage of AM:•Productivity increase.•Design or Topology optimisation.•Powder recycling validation.•In-process NDT development.•In-process geometrical validation.•High specification materials process development.The MERLIN consortium comprises six world leading aero engine manufacturers, Rolls-Royce is the coordinator, six renowned RTD providers and two intelligent SME’s. Impacts will include the development of high value, disruptive AM technologies capable of step changes in performance which will safeguard EU companies in the high value aero engine manufacturing field. AM will significantly reduce waste in an industry where materials require massive amounts of energy and toxic chemicals, in-proces

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Analysis of the Initiation of DNA Recombination/Repair in thermophilic Archaea' to be submitted under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are highly cytotoxic and mutagenic. In eukaryotes, two proteins, Mre11 and Rad50 play a major role in DSBs recombination/repair. In particular, these proteins are involved in the maturation of DSBs during homologous recombin ation which requires 3' overhangs for recombinases. However, their in vitro activities cannot explain this maturation mechanism suggesting the existence of additional partners. In thermophilic archaea homologs of Mre11 and Rad50 are organised in an operon-like structure, together with two genes encoding a nuclease and a helicase. The nuclease (NurA) exhibits 5´-3´ exonuclease activity, indicating that it could be essential for the production of the 3´overhangs (Constantinesco et al., 2002). I´m interested i n the design of an in vitro system for DSBs maturation by the Rad50-Mre11 pathway. In the proposed study I will analyse the interactions between the four proteins Mre11, Rad50, NurA and HerA and investigate the activities of the proteins as well as of the potential complexes. Subsequently I will identify additional proteins binding to the complexes using crude protein extracts from Sulfolobus and specific antibodies. In addition, I will initiate the study of in vivo functions using recently developed geneti c tools for Sulfolobus. Together this should lead to a comprehensive model of the initiation step of DNA recombination/repair in archaea.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Non-uniform programmable integrated photonic waveguide meshes' (NU-MESH) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

Programmable integrated photonics (PIP) is an emerging new paradigm that aims at designing common integrated optical hardware resource configurations, capable of implementing an unconstrained variety of functionalities by suitable programming. The work carried out within the Advanced Grant ERC-ADG-2016-741415 UMWPCHIP of which I was the Principal Investigator, allowed me to lay the foundation for the first technical stages of a novel revolutionary concept, the Field Programmable Photonic Gate Array (FPPGA), developed in the context of a Proof-of-concept Grant ERC-POC-2019-859927-FPPAs. Currently, the core of the processor is  a uniform 2D  programmable photonic waveguide mesh,  formed by replicating hexagonal unit cells. This layout suffers from limited flexibility in the spectral period and sampling time values. The challenge is to develop and demonstrate solutions that overcome these limitations and which can be easily incorporated into existing mesh designs.In NP-Mesh I aim to demonstrate and validate the concept of non-periodic programmable photonic integrated waveguide meshes formed by embedding defect cells into the otherwise uniform 2D hexagonal mesh. Including defect cells solves the problem of spectral period limitation through the exploitation of the Vernier effect as well as the as the sampling time resolution limitation of the uniform waveguide mesh. My working roadmap will include:  1) carrying out the required research activities linked to the development of the proposed technical concepts, 2) validating them through outsourced chip fabrication in an external foundry followed by measurement and characterization experiments carried out in my lab at UPV, 3) generating the new intellectual property rights (IPRs) for the new results via patent writing and appl

user: Explain how 'Promotion of Participation and Citizenship in Europe through the “Advocacy and Legal Advice Centres (ALACs)” of Transparency International' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

The ALAC-project will generate better scientific knowledge and a “best practice”-model of civil society activities in the anti-corruption coalition. With the focus on the “Advocacy and Legal Advice Centres (ALACs)” of Transparency International, the leading CSO against corruption, the research project aims at a) enhancing civil society participation, b) raising anti-corruption effectiveness and c) developing the advocacy for legal change at the national and EU level. Based on the insight that citizens’ participation and the values of integrity, accountability and transparency are crucial components of fighting corruption the project is designed to promote the ALACs both as a management tool of a ‘bottom-up’ anti-corruption work and citizens’ participation mechanism. The goal of developing an advanced ALAC-methodology as a new model for co-operation between citizens, CSOs and researchers is to meet the challenge of devising policies that raise the level of citizens’ participation and empowerment. Combining action-research and practical implementation the project – itself designed as a process of organisational learning – will have direct impact on the work of Transparency International and its partner organisations in Europe and all over the world. Furthermore the “empirical grounded theory of the practice of the anti-corruption coalition” in different EU- and EU-affiliated countries, intended by the project, will establish an innovative paradigm for scientific research as well as for the design of all kinds of civil society actors and non-governmental organisations.
