Estimated Impact of the Federal Reserve's Mortgage-Backed Securities Purchase Program

The largest credit or liquidity program created by the Federal Reserve during the financial crisis was the mortgagebacked securities (MBS) purchase program. In this paper, we examine the quantitative impact of this program on mortgage interest rate spreads. This is more difficult than frequently perceived because of simultaneous changes in prepayment risk and default risk. Our empirical results attribute a sizable portion of the decline in mortgage rates to such risks and a relatively small and uncertain portion to the program. For specifications where the existence or announcement of the program appears to have lowered spreads, we find no separate effect of the stock of MBS purchased by the Federal Reserve.
SportUrban - Sport et loisirs facteurs de cohésion sociale, de développement économique et de régénération urbaine

In view of the challenges of social exclusion and spatial segregation, SportUrban aims to answer the following questions: Can the integration of people and the reconstruction of social links be promoted by the ways in which sport and leisure activities are used? Can local economic development be based on the demand induced by the sports and leisure sector? Can urban renovation be furthered by policies for the creation or transformation of sporting facilities? Can the image of a district, town or complex be developed through territorial marketing based on promotion of sports and leisure policy? Overall objective / Objectif général The aims of SportUrban are to: • Organise the sharing of experiences in implementing local sports and leisure policies • Identify and test practices leading to the integration of economic, social and urban factors • Disseminate partners’ know-how and the most useful tools for decision-makers • Create awareness among political decision-makers and increase the professionalism of technical authorities responsible for groups • Return Europe to its territories and encourage people to adopt their European citizenship. Expected results / Résultats attendus The expected impact of the transfer of experiences and competencies will be improved practices and greater cultural and technical awareness of European experiences. The sharing of know-how should lead to a higher level of qualification among partners, modification of operating methods, adaptation of local policies and improved governance measured by response to social demands. In urban regeneration and economic development, SportUrban will be able to influence local policies by providing an outside view of local projects and revealing dimensions which are currently underestimated. This should enrich both regional and local policies. New skills and new vocational training may be created. New analytical tools should improve public policies. The project will pass on its results outside the EU.
MANAGING MIGRATION AND INTEGRATION AT LOCAL LEVEL/CITIES AND REGIONS

This pilot fast track network aims to develop an integrated
exchange programme relating to the theme of “Managing
migration and Integration at local LEvel – Cities and Regions
(MILE)”.
The proposal has two closely interrelated sub themes:
Migration and Integration. In practice there will be a number
of structured and sequenced actions to address each subtheme: > Each partner (city and region equals one partner)
would seek to identify 3 participants (cross-sectoral) who
would form an Action Learning Group (ALG) for the specific
sub-theme.
> Each sub-theme will involve each ALG undertaking
the following steps:
- Participation of members in a First Peer Review exchange
which would focus on mapping of practice and identification
of need of all partners in relation to the sub-theme;
- Participation in an online module which would
exchange/identify good practice in relation to the sub-theme.
This would incorporate external inputs as well as examples
from the partners. The module would be moderated with
expert support develop actions for inclusion operational
plans.
- Participate in a Final Peer Review workshop that would
focus on the emerging action plans and present projects
identified in module two as constituting good/better practice.
The work of each ALG would be undertaken over 5-6 month
period thus enabling participants to develop good
relationships that will enable ongoing working with each
other beyond the life of the group.
Alongside the work of the ALG, the project will create
the online resource consisting of:
> Case Studies
> Sub-theme reports
> Links to relevant websites
> Publications/reports
> Contacts with regional/city/national/European actors
The outputs of phase I of this PFTN (financed through
URBACT I) are a baseline study, the work programme for
phase II and a framework for local action plan. The outputs
of phase II project financed through URBACT II will be the
setting up of Local Support Group and local action plan
for each partner city.
PATIENT-SPECIFIC ACETABULAR GUIDES AND ASSOCIATED INSTRUMENTS

A patient-specific acetabular guide can be used for preparing an acetabulum of a patient to receive an acetabular implant. The acetabular guide includes a patient-specific engagement surface designed to be complementary and mateable with a corresponding surface of the patient's pelvic anatomy. The acetabular guide is designed during a pre-operative plan for the patient by a three-dimensional reconstruction of the anatomy of the patient using two-dimensional medical images. The patient-specific engagement surface has a first portion mateable with a portion of the acetabulum of the patient. The acetabular guide includes a guiding element that extends from the acetabular guide opposite to the first portion of engagement surface. The guiding element defines a bore designed to be oriented along an alignment axis for an acetabular implant when the acetabular guide is engaged to the acetabulum.
Activities releated to science

The overall concept of our proposal is “Art of science” for both years respectively taking place on Friday 26 Septemper 2014 and Friday 25 September 2015 where we intend to generate an awareness and interest towards science by bringing scientists and all sections of the public close to each together in Istanbul, Turkey. Here, with this concept, we would like to enhance public recognition of researchers and their work, encourage active participation into scientific planning, experimentation and outcomes in one approache. Our approach is to assist the participants to be acquainted with how they “live, love, fun and learn” science in their daily life. For example, we will present them opportunities to the see how science affects our life, to experience the science in daily life by hands-on and minds-on activities, and to shape their view of science as a way of knowing. The participants will also have the opportunity to be introduced to the latest scientific developments in various fields by meeting and discussing with scientists. Vice versa, the researchers will find chance to make their work publically known. Furthermore, students at all levels will make meaning of their science courses, feel themselves closer to science and scientists, and eventually become more confident about science. Additional idea of the researchers’ night is to recognize the participants to be aware of the role of European Union framework programmes, the impact and effect they have had on the well-being of the public. This idea will be introduced by several activities involving participants and facilities demonstrated to the participants in EU corner.

Smart, sustainable & convenient unit dose packaging

Of the total plastic demand, approximately 40% is used to make packaging that is discarded within weeks or days. These short-life plastics bottles, containers, unit dose packaging, secondary packaging have important disadvantages regarding their usage and disposal. Traditional plastics are derived from petroleum, a non-renewable resource, used to produce large quantities of plastics that go to waste (38% go to landfills). Due to the increasing awareness of such environmental impact, there is a growing demand for packaging made from bioplastics (polymers derived from renewable resources or biodegradable polymers). For almost every conventional plastic there is now a bioplastic alternative available on the market that has the same properties with additional advantages. Currently bioplastics represent around 1% of the total plastic produced annually (2M in 2017) but the market is booming (20% growth annually) and many big firms are introducing bio-packaging in an attempt to position their products as green and include the sustainability claim. Moreover, about 80% of European consumers want to buy products which have minimal impact on the environment and will be willing to accept an additional charge in their shopping bag for sustainable packaging. Our project, BIOSNAP aims at taking full advantage of the bioplastics market growth and opportunities towards more sustainable products. We are providing a ready-to market, sustainable unit dose packaging that is 100% bio-based for food applications (olive oil, ketchup, or mayonnaise). Furthermore, it will be made of biodegradable and compostable materials in compliance with UNI EN13432. Our end users (food firms) will benefit from a premium and unique unit dose packaging on the market, and final consumers will benefit from its versatility and ease of use (one hand opening system), being able to safely dispose the packaging with the organic waste. The consortium expects to achieve a ROI of 15.3 from BIOSNAP.

Relationship Between Participation in Leisure Time Physical Activities and Aerobic Fitness in Children With DCD

(1) To explore participation in leisure time physical activities (LTPAs) in children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) compared with children developing typically. (2) To examine the association between participation in LTPA and aerobic fitness.Thirty-eight children with DCD (aged 7-12 years) were age and gender matched with 38 children developing typically. Participation in LTPA was self-administered by using an activity questionnaire, and aerobic fitness was estimated using a Shuttle Run Test.Children with DCD spent significantly less time in overall, nonorganized, and vigorous LTPA compared with children developing typically. Aerobic fitness was significantly lower for children with DCD. The best model, including age, group, and overall LTPA, explained 46.2% of the variance in aerobic fitness.Suitable physical activities should be fostered in children with DCD, who have a low participation rate and aerobic fitness level.
Quantum detectors

In HANAS (Hybrid Artificial and Natural Atomic Systems) storage in atomic quantum memories of single photons generated with novel quantum dot devices was demonstrated.  Single photon detectors are crucial building blocks in quantum memories and in follow-up technologies such as quantum repeaters and the quantum internet. For our experiments in HANAS, single photon detectors based on semiconducting avalanche photodiodes were first used until a new type of single photon detectors based on superconducting nanostructures, originally developed for telecom wavelengths, was tested and greatly outperformed other detectors. This innovative detector makes complex quantum optics experiments far easier and faster to perform. In Qdet, we will develop and fully benchmark a prototype based on these superconducting quantum detectors optimized for atomic frequencies and start the commercialization process with an industrial partner. We will establish superconducting single photon detectors as the best systems for single photon detection in the near infrared, combining the highest detection efficiency, time resolution and lowest noise levels. A market research study and contacts with key players in the field will enable us to identify launching customers and benchmark our systems for demanding applications in a new wavelength range.
Bioleaching of gold and copper from waste mobile phone PCBs by using a cyanogenic bacterium

Abstract Chromobacterium violaceum (C. violaceum), a cyanide generating bacterium has been used to leach out gold and copper from the waste mobile phone printed circuit boards (PCBs) containing ∼34.5% Cu and 0.025% Au in YP (yeast extract and polypeptone with glycine) medium. The bioleaching was carried out in an incubator shaker (150 rpm) at 30 °C and 15 g/L pulp density in the pH range 8–11. Dissolution of gold and copper increased from 7.78% (0.225 ppm) to 10.8% (0.46 ppm) and 4.9% (419 ppm) to 11.4% (879 ppm) in 8 days with increase in pH from 8 to 11 and 8 to 10 respectively. Supplementing oxygen with 0.004% (v/v) H2O2 increased the copper leaching to 24.6% (1743 ppm) at pH 10 in 8 days whereas improvement in gold leaching was insignificant with the recovery of 11.31% Au at pH 11.0. The waste PCBs can thus be recycled in environmental friendly manner.
HYDRAULICALLY DRIVEN GAS RECOVERY DEVICE AND METHOD OF USE

A gas recovery system where a submersible compressor is in combination with a hydraulic motor. The hydraulic motor is actuated by a pressure differential between hydraulic power lines extending between the motor and a pressure generation means at or near the surface. Hydraulic fluid serves to actuate device components and regulate the temperature of the down hole compressor. A monitoring system evaluates, communicates, and records operation parameters so that they may be adjusted to ensure a constant volume of produced gas. The device may operate at variable speeds to accommodate changing downhole pressure conditions.
Perspectives for the aeronautical research in europe

The overall objective of PARE (Perspectives for the Aeronautical Research in Europe) is to trigger collaboration between European stakeholders to support the achievement of the Flightpath 2050 goals, by providing yearly reports (and respective methodology) that assess the progress, gaps and barriers and propose suitable measures to close the remaining gap. The main outputs of PARE are three yearly reports on the “Perspectives for Aerospace Research in Europe” that use specific benchmarks to assess the progress towards each of the 23 Flightpath goals and the gap remaining. The assessment includes EU projects (Clean Sky, SESAR and others), national projects, academic and industrial research reports. Aspects like long-distance travelling and relevant emerging technologies from non-aeronautical sectors are focused, as well as greater participation from recent EU member states (e.g. in Eastern Europe) and associated countries (e.g Ukraine). The activities of Europe’s competitors (e.g. the U.S.) are also considered in PARE to assess: areas of EU leadership to be exploited; areas requiring specific effort in the EU to catch-up; areas of common interest for cooperation. 
PARE will contribute to fulfil the “Mobility for Growth” workprogramme with an assessment of progress in aerospace research, gaps and bottlenecks. The comprehensive yearly report (RC), can originate a public version (RP) and specific versions for academy and research (RA), industry, airlines and airports (RB) and certification authorities, international and professional associations (RC). The wide dissemination of each report will allow to collect feedback to improve the next one thus establishing the final reporting procedure that could be extended beyond the end of the project. Also addressed is the attraction of young talent and the increase in the participation of woman in aerospace including the preparation of a newsletter on exciting and attractive developments in aeronautics.
Ab initiostudy of the thermopower of biphenyl-based single-molecule junctions

Employing ab-initio electronic structure calculations combined with the non-equilibrium Green's function technique, we study the dependence of the thermopower Q on the conformation in biphenyl-based single-molecule junctions. For the series of experimentally available biphenyl molecules, alkyl side chains allow us to gradually adjust the torsion angle \phi\ between the two phenyl rings from 0 to 90{\deg} and to control in this way the degree of \pi-electron conjugation. Studying different anchoring groups and binding positions, our theory predicts that the absolute values of the thermopower decrease slightly towards larger torsion angles, following an a+b*cos^{2}\phi\ dependence. The anchoring group determines the sign of Q and a,b, simultaneously. Sulfur and amine groups give rise to Q,a,b>0, while for cyano Q,a,b<0. The different binding positions can lead to substantial variations of the thermopower mostly due to changes in the alignment of the frontier molecular orbital levels and the Fermi energy. We explain our ab-initio results in terms of a \pi-orbital tight-binding model and a minimal two-level model, which describes the pair of hybridizing frontier orbital states on the two phenyl rings. The variations of the thermopower with \phi\ seem to be within experimental resolution.
