user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'The expression of cultural cross-fertilization in Egyptian clothing of the 7th-10th centuries AD.'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The TUNICS project explores the impact of cultural cross-fertilization between the diverse populations in Egypt in the Early Medieval period (7th - 10th centuries AD) through an innovative, comparative study of the tunics, the basic garment in Ancient Egypt, and items par excellence to express their wearers’ identity. TUNICS will be the first comprehensive study of clothing from this period in Egypt and will provide a systematic overview of an almost entirely unexplored field in Egyptian archaeology. Both comparative, experimental archaeology and innovative digital research methods will be used to fully investigate the relationship between the garments and their wearer. This research will be primarily object-based and the comparative analysis of data gathered from various museum collections and archaeological sites will not only enhance the insight in technical crafts knowledge, but will also contribute to the understanding of the development of ancient garments and offer a unique perspective to explore different aspects of cultural identity and society. The TUNICS project is hosted by the University of Copenhagen’s Centre for Textile Research (CTR) a world-wide renowned institute in the field of ancient textile studies. The project will benefit from the stimulating and interdisciplinary scientific environment, training opportunities and CTR’s international network.The comparative study will be communicated through a series of academic publications and conferences. An Open Access database will be accessible to professionals as well as to a broader audience with interest in costume and textile history.

assistant: **Objectives**

To create novel mucosal vaccination approaches efficient bacterial live carrier vaccines will be developed by rational design and genetic engineering. Enteric Perinea sop. will be attenuated by targeted disruption of genes encoding virulence factors. Taking adman- tag of the type III protein secretion apparatus of Perinea, heterogonous model anti- genes (ovalbumin, OVA; haemagglutinin, HA) will be fused to Tran located Perinea Yaps to target the antigens to MHC class I or II antigen processing pathways in host cells. Imp- mane responses and effectors mechanisms induced by these vaccines will be evaluated in a mouse infection model including OVA- and HA-TCR transgenic mice as well as with human cells.Furthermore, antigens of classical swine fever virus will be used and immune rest- poses will b analysed in a swine model. The combined efforts of a multidisciplinary collaboration between six academic institutes and one European vaccine company with highly complementary expertise will allow the development of a new generation of live carrier vaccines with (see the follow on the original text)

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Frequency-encoded quantum multi-photon interference devices'.

assistant: **Concept**

Optical quantum computing and quantum simulation rely on multi-photon interference effects, between many photons in a larger number of optical paths or modes. In particular in Gaussian Boson Sampling protocols, single-mode squeezed states are input to an optical circuit implementing a transformation on the modes, which creates a complex multi-mode squeezed state. Sampling from such a state with single photon detectors is thought to be an intractable problem to simulate with classical computers, and has useful applications, for instance in calculating molecular vibronic spectra and in identifying densely connected sub-graphs of a network. This motivates building quantum-optical devices to implement Gaussian Boson Sampling. However, it is resource intensive to create a usefully large state using many separate squeezed sources and a circuit, and very technically challenging to avoid photon loss and to maintain interferometric stability. Here, I propose to carry out Gaussian Boson Sampling and related experiments by directly generating multi-mode squeezed states encoded in frequency, from a single source with reconfigurable frequency correlations. Using frequency channels to represent the modes is very compact because they can all propagate along the same spatial path, and this also ensures interferometric stability. Directly generating the desired state will avoid having the photons propagate through a lossy circuit, allowing scaling to higher photon numbers, and frequency encoding will make large numbers of modes readily available, surpassing the state-of-the-art in spatially-encoded circuits.

user: Explain how 'Custom tv' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Main Objective The main objective of CustomTV is to develop, demonstrate and validate the technology for user-friendly screen customisation and interactive programme selection in a multimedia broadcast environment by introducing the multimedia elements of the MPEG-4 standard and the object description of the MPEG-7 standard into existing Digital Visual Broadcasting (DVB) services. This system will demonstrate the compatible co-existence of MPEG-2 with MPEG-4 and MPEG-7, thus helping to contribute to faster acceptance of these new standards. Technical Approach CustomTV will rely on existing technology. The demonstrator will be built using mostly commercial products (MPEG-2) and technologies developed by a number of ACTS projects implementing MPEG-4; such as the MoMuSys terminal and the German MINT project's implementation of MPEG-4 video decoding on the 320C6x DSP on a parallel pentium PC platform. To provide more than one image sequence within the transport multiplex stream, an MPEG-2 commercial system and an MPEG-4 customised system will be used to encode and decode the real-time video, audio and data elements. Considerable effort will be devoted to software development of program interaction and composition. The new MPEG-7 technology will enable the selection of one or more information streams from a multiplex containing many such streams and, together with the MPEG-4 compositor, offer a means of flexibly presenting this information on screen. Since MPEG-7 information streams will have descriptive tags associated with each information stream, content-based access of distributed information can be achieved where the user can selectively access the information according to a set of pre-selected key words or other search criteria. A user profile will be built to offer vi

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Development of SnS Based Solar Cells' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Most solar cells manufactured are made using crystalline or multicrystalline silicon. However producing power with these cells remains expensive compared to conventional power generation. In order to reduce production costs thin film solar cells have been developed especially those based on the use of the compounds, cadmium telluride and copper gallium indium diselenide. Despite the excellent success of these cells in recent years, problems remain. Because of the cadmium contained in the former cells, there needs to be controlled disposal after use. In the latter cells there are concerns with the lack of abundance of indium and gallium when the scale of production is increased. It is possible that other inorganic materials can be used to produce solar cells without these drawbacks; one such material is tin sulphide. This compound has a near optimum direct energy bandgap for photovoltaic solar energy conversion, it consists of abundant elements and it can be made either n-type or p-type by appropriate doping. Large scale industrial processes already exist for producing thin films of tin and sulphidising metals and in previous work we have produced devices with efficiencies up to 1-2%. In this work we aim to increase the efficiency to>10% to demonstratre the viability of this exciting new material.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Open-Access Forecasting System of the Health Effects of Air Pollution'.

assistant: **Concept**

Air pollution represents a major global environmental health problem. 99% of the world population lives in locations where international air quality guidelines are not met. Overall, ambient air pollution causes 4.2 million premature deaths every year worldwide, half a million of which in Europe alone. Available early warning systems of air quality are generally based on location-specific thresholds of air pollutant concentrations, they are entirely based only on forecasts representing the physical processes of atmospheric chemistry, and they do not account for the inequalities in vulnerability of the exposed populations. The ERC-funded project FORECAST-AIR will go beyond these limitations in health early warning systems by integrating air quality forecasting, environmental epidemiology and the inequalities in vulnerability to implement a new method to issue public health alerts. Towards this aim, I will estimate epidemiological models between air pollution observations and health records disaggregated by causes of disease and sociodemographic vulnerable groups; I will use these models to transform bias-corrected air quality forecasts into heath predictions; I will analyse and compare the window of predictability of forecasts and predictions; and I will use this comparative study to assess the predictability of the resulting health early warning systems, so that they generate trust among public health authorities and end-users. If successful, FORECAST-AIR will drive innovation by creating operational, fit-for-purpose, early warning systems representing the health impacts of several air pollutants, with a special focus on vulnerable populations.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Understanding Non-Photochemical Quenching Regulation in a Dynamic Environment.' (UNREDE) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Life on Earth relies on photosynthesis that converts water and carbon dioxide into organic molecules using absorbed light by chlorophylls bound to light harvesting complexes (LHC). During evolution, LHC have maximized the capability to capture light energy, allowing organisms to grow even in very low light environments. However, during nutrient deprivation or under high light conditions, when light absorption exceeds the capacity for carbon dioxide fixation, the excess absorbed energy can elicit the generation of reactive oxygen species that cause severe oxidative damage. Photosynthetic organisms have developed mechanisms of non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) that alleviate this photo-oxidative stress in the timescale of seconds to minutes. This NPQ is critical to protect the integrity of the photosynthetic apparatus, allowing the organisms to survive in a dynamic light and nutrient environment. In algae, LHCSR (LHC Stress Related) proteins catalyze NPQ, but their specific role and regulation are poorly understood. For this project, I will use the model organism Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in which two LHCSR proteins have been identified. My main goals will be (1) to characterize components involved in NPQ under conditions experienced in nature, where light intensities vary and nutrient conditions (C, N and S) are suboptimal, and (2) to explore regulatory circuits and signaling molecules that impact NPQ. The experimental approaches involve characterization of novel mutant strains unable to properly trigger NPQ, transcriptomic analysis to elucidate the effect of NPQ deficit on global gene expression and pharmacological approaches to explore the impact of different signaling molecules in NPQ. Understanding NPQ is essential to predict how photosynthetic organisms will behave

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'High-Speed Vapour Deposition of Metal Halide Perovskites  for Scalable Applications' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

Metal halide perovskite solar cells have rapidly progressed from a research breakthrough to a commercially viable technology, recently making their market debut. Their excellent performance and cost-effectiveness make them strong contenders for next-generation photovoltaic applications, especially when paired with traditional silicon in tandem configurations. However, scaling up for widespread deployment requires manufacturing approaches compatible with industrial needs. Vapour phase deposition offers many advantages for perovskite fabrication as a solvent-free, scalable method of high industrial relevance. Nonetheless, current vapour-based methods suffer from low deposition rates, posing a significant challenge to achieving the high-throughput production needed for commercial-scale implementation.In the SpeedUp project, we will develop a high-speed vapour deposition method for metal halide perovskites. While current approaches primarily focus on the co-evaporation of multiple perovskite precursors from standard sublimation sources, which are thermally heated to achieve a specific deposition rate (typically between 1 and 10 nm/min), we will utilize electron beam evaporation from a single source to deposit high-quality metal halide perovskite layers rapidly. The overall goal is to demonstrate a proof-of-concept process that reaches 500 nm/min deposition rates without compromising the perovskite layer quality and performance in solar cells for various perovskite compositions. Through this breakthrough development, complemented with an analysis of the technological and commercial landscape, we will lay the foundation for a high-throughput manufacturing approach for metal halide perovskites for scalable applications and decisively facilitate their industrialisation.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Advanced conversion of sulphate salts in circular hydrometallurgy' (ADONIS) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

The EU aims to achieve climate neutrality with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, necessitating the electrification of key sectors like mobility and energy. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are crucial for this transition. To enhance strategic autonomy amid global competition and an increasingly hostile geopolitical context, the EU targets more strategic autonomy along the entire mine-to battery supply chain. This implies minimum targets for domestic extraction (10%), processing (40%) and recycling (25%) of battery raw materials. Given the strict environmental limits EU companies need to respect, a significant challenge in this mine-to-battery(-recycling) supply chain is the generation of large sulphate waste streams. Sodium sulphate is produced during lithium extraction from spodumene ores, cobalt and nickel sulphate refining, precursor cathode active material (pCAM) production for nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) batteries, and LIB recycling. Similarly, lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery production generates ammonium sulphate waste. Addressing these waste streams economically is a major challenge for EU metallurgical and battery (recycling) companies. Prof. Koen Binnemans (KU Leuven, Belgium) proposed a solution, filing a European priority patent on July 18, 2024. The patent describes a “salt splitting process” that converts sodium sulphate into sodium hydroxide and sulphuric acid, and ammonium sulphate into ammonia and sulphuric acid, using simple inorganic reactions at moderate temperatures. The invention is a prime example of a “circular hydrometallurgical process”. The ADONIS project aims to provide the proof-of-concept for this process, while demonstrating its environmental and techno-economic superiority. If successful, ADONIS could solve the sodium and ammon
