Launching high-resolution relaxometry - a powerful new analytical tool for industry

Analytical methods are essential in many industries, such as chemistry, energy, pharmaceutical, and in health services. These methods usually fall into one of two categories: they either identify molecules and their structures or determine the properties of a fluid or a solid. This project will introduce a game-changing method to industry: high-resolution relaxometry in NMR, a label-free method, which combines both approaches as it identifies molecules and characterizes their individual properties within a complex fluid.  The main goal of this project is to open a new market for high-resolution relaxometry instrumentation and methods in industry and health services. We have developed innovative hardware, methods, and software for applications of high-resolution relaxometry in biophysics during our ERC StG project. Introducing high-resolution relaxometry to industry will vastly expand what is currently a small budding market for academic users. This project will be carried out with our long-term partner, Bruker Biospin, the world leader in NMR instrumentation.  Our strategy is to (1) identify competition and sectors of industry and high-potential end users that will benefit from this ground-breaking method; (2) improve the relaxometry hardware; (3) collaborate with target companies, including initiated work within the chemistry/energy and the pharmaceutical sectors, as well as a laboratory with links to health services; (4) demonstrate the potential of high-resolution relaxometry (e.g. better characterization of raw materials, enhanced processes, or new information for medical diagnostics). This strategy will lay the ground for the commercial deployment of high-resolution relaxometry in industry and health services. Overall, this project will have significant economic impact: new markets for instrumentation and enhanced competitiveness for end users, as well as society benefits in human health with the modernization of diagnostics towards personalized medicine.
A magic magnetic field to measure the neutron electric dipole moment

New sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model of particle physics could be revealed in the laboratory by measuring a non-zero electric dipole moment (EDM) of a spin 1/2 particle such as the neutron. Despite the great sensitivity attained after 60 years of developments, the result of the experiments is still compatible with zero. Still, new experiments have a high discovery potential since they probe new physics at the multi-TeV scale, beyond the reach of direct searches at colliders. Progress in precision on the neutron EDM is limited by a systematic effect arising from the relativistic motional field $\vec{E} \times \vec{v} / c^2$ experienced by the particles moving in the measurement chamber in combination with the residual magnetic gradients. This effect would normally forbid a significant increase of the size of the chamber, sadly hindering the increase of neutron statistics. We propose a new measurement concept to evade this limitation in a room-temperature experiment employing a mercury co-magnetometer. It consists ajusting the static magnetic field $B_0$ to a `magic' value which cancels the false EDM of the mercury. The magic setting is $7.2\,\muT$ for a big cylindrical double-chamber of diameter $100$~cm.
In-gap states of In2 O3 single crystals investigated by scanning tunneling spectroscopy

The influence of intrinsic point defects on the electronic structure of n-type In2O3 single crystals grown by two methods, namely chemical vapor transport and from the melt, was examined by scanning tunneling spectroscopy. This method is a very surface sensitive technique for measuring the local density of states. So far not resolved states within the fundamental band gap have been observed. The gap states have been studied at different crystals and after several annealing treatments in an oxidizing atmosphere. The spectroscopic results will be compared to state of the art DFT-calculations revealing hints on the origin of the gap states of In2O3 to be due to oxygen vacancies as well as indium and oxygen interstitials.
Ordered-mesoporous Nb2O5/carbon composite as a sodium insertion material

Abstract The present work introduces a new intercalation host for the Na ions, Nb2O5, and proposes that a mesoporous Nb2O5/carbon composite can function as a promising sodium insertion material. The highly ordered mesoporous Nb2O5/carbon electrode, synthesized using a block copolymer-assisted one-pot method, demonstrated not only a stable cycle life, but also outstanding rate capability. The excellent Na storage properties of the Nb2O5/carbon electrode were due to the uniquely ordered mesoporous nanostructure and in situ carbon formation whose configuration provided a large electrode–electrolyte interface area and enhanced Na ion and electron transport. Ex situ analyses revealed that Nb2O5 stores Na ions through Na de/intercalation reactions combined with surface capacitive reactions, after the activation process during the first sodiation.
Territorial policies 

Environmental issues have developed considerably over the past few years; in-depth studies on the safeguarding of the natural environment are accompanied by a growing interest towards a well-balanced and rational management of resources for production purposes. In this regard, the field of environmental technologies has registered considerable developments, both qualitatively and quantitatively, in several ways related to the awareness that environmental protection and enhancement issues can be tackled with an effective use of the results of the research and experimenting carried out so far. Specifically, the project stems from the need to train a technical-scientific professional prepared to deal with ecological, technical, social and legislative matters related to territorial management and available environmental resources. The professional thus trained is able to collect and analyse all the information and data on territorial and environmental characteristics; to manage non-homogeneous and diachronic cartography; to process, based on multi-varied statistical methods, the data connected to the territory and satellite images; he/she further possesses the technical and scientific knowledge that is relevant in the management of existing physical resources (water, agriculture, forests, soil, light, renewable energy) and is able to use knowledge on the ecosystem and its resources to draft concrete environmental policies, aimed at a sustainable management of the territory. At the end of their training, these professionals can be employed in a number of roles in the labour market: officials in public bodies and institutions, freelancers, technical experts on the supply of public territorial services, experts on the management of environmental and territorial resources and EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment).
Research, connections, networks and culture

ReConNeCt project has the ultimate goal to unveil the true personalities of researchers and show their multifaceted, subtle and “only humans” side. This is a true challenge knowing that the researchers are usually perceived as hardcore, hard to approach loners who love to deconstruct scientific mysteries, unselfishly work for the benefit of mankind and, in a word, improve our daily lives. Being completely in line with the main common objectives of the European Researchers’ Night, ReConNeCt project, besides these highlighted objectives, puts special emphasis on the most important – the beginnings of one’s future scientific odyssey i.e. inspiring and motivating the young generations of future scientists and life-changers. 
The outlined concept and the content planned will help to achieve the following specific objectives: 
•	To break and demystify the persistent and repeated stereotypes about researchers;  
•	To bring out the actual researchers in Serbia, engage them publically and increase their recognition both in Serbia and globally;  
•	To promote research carried out in Serbia and researchers as role models;
•	To unveil the motives behind becoming a researcher and entice the young to embark on scientific careers;
•	To show the importance of scientific research and raise public awareness of the researchers' contribution to progress and development;
•	To raise public awareness about the impact of researchers in ever important fields like climate changes and global warming, but also in the subtle realm such as cultural heritage (in line with celebrating 2018 as the European Year of Cultural Heritage);
•	To highlight the importance of the EU’s manifold support to researchers and scientific research work in Serbia;
•	To improve networking with other national/international projects involved in 	science popularization, through mutual support of events and exchange of ideas, experiences and people.
“Weathering and nutrient export from subglacial environments: a novel stable isotope approach”

The Earth’s surface has been dominated by cycles of glacial advance for more than two million years. Processes occurring at the glacier bed exert a fundamental control on the release of bioavailable elements to rivers and oceans and the evolution of the Earth’s surface, hydrosphere and atmosphere. As global temperatures rise and ice-sheets retreat, it is critical to constrain the roles that subglacial weathering processes play in controlling global biogeochemical cycles. The overarching goal of this project is to investigate the redox conditions that control vital nutrient and elemental release through a study of glacial outflows from contrasting subglacial environments. I will achieve this goal using a novel multidisciplinary framework incorporating cutting-edge redox sensitive stable isotope proxies (Mo, Fe and Se isotopes) of iron and sulphur cycling and oxidation state  to unique glaciated regions.  Using a combination of archived samples and focused field campaigns I will study subglacial outflow environments that differ in bedrock geology, regional climate and type of individual glacier drainage basins (e.g. ice cap, ice sheet and alpine glacier) in order to evaluate the importance of these parameters in weathering processes and ultimately the release of bio-available elements from the sub-glacial environment to rivers and oceans. Key questions I am to answer are how is the release of bioavailable elements a function of the redox state of the subglacial environment? Which of the three key parameters plays the most significant role? To what extent is this reflected in the enrichments of elements in solid/liquid phases? and how does this affect biogeochemical cycling downstream and nutrient supply?
Support stakeholders in zero emission fossil fuel power plants and energy intensive industry

This proposal is submitted in response to call LC-SC3-CC-4-2018. The overarching goal of this project is to draw together a broad, effective and inclusive network of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) – hereafter referred to as CCUS – stakeholders to support the development of zero emission fossil fuel power plants and energy intensive industries. 

Supporting the coordination of diverse stakeholders - including the private and public sectors - will contribute to a common agreement on the role that CCUS technologies can play in the transition to a low-carbon economy. 

This proposal will support the coordination of the stakeholders’ activities through the SET-Plan CCUS European Technology Innovation Platform (ETIP). A key activity of the ETIP will be to support progress of the CCUS Research and Innovation (R&I) activities contained in the SET-Plan CCS and CCU Implementation Plan . The Implementation Plan was developed by a temporary working group and adopted by the Set Plan Steering Group on 27th September 2017. The Implementation Plan R&I activities will support delivery of the SET-Plan targets agreed for Action 9 on CCS and CCU.           

This proposal is to continue the ETIP ZEP activities supported through the project SESZEP funded under LCE-36-2016. The grant for this project ends on the 30th of April 2018 and so there will be a gap in the support to the ETIP stakeholders. If this proposal is successful we would wish to start providing support to the stakeholders at the earliest possible opportunity in order to minimise disruption . If this proposal is successful we would like to discuss the options for a timely start for these services with the Commission.
Cerebral organoids: using stem cell derived 3d cultures to understand human brain development and neurological disorders

Most of our knowledge on human development and physiology is derived from experiments done in animal models. While these experiments have led to a comprehensive understanding of the principles of neurogenesis, animal models often fall short of modelling many of the most common neurological disorders. Recent experiments have revealed characteristic striking differences in brain development between rodents and primates and may provide an explanation for this problem.
The goal of this proposal is to use three dimensional organoid cultures derived from pluripotent human stem cells to reveal the human specific aspects of brain development and to analyse neurological disease mechanisms directly in human tissue. We have recently developed a 3D culture method allowing us to recapitulate human brain development during the first trimester of embryogenesis. Using this method, we will define the human specific brain patterning events in order to develop a culture system that can recapitulate essentially any part of the brain. Using a unique combination of cell type specific markers and mutagenic viruses, we will define the transcriptional networks defining specific neuronal subtypes. This will allow us to perform loss-of function genetics in human tissue to define transcription factors necessary for development of individual neuronal subtypes on a genome-wide level. Finally, we will apply the genome wide screening technology to human neurological disorders like microcephaly or schizophrenia to identify factors that can rescue disease phenotypes. 
This research proposal will provide fundamental insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms specifying various neuronal subclasses in the human brain and establish technology that can be applied to a variety of cell types and brain regions. The proposed experiments have the potential to yield fundamental insights into human neurological disease mechanisms that can currently not be derived from animal models.
Longitudinal dimensionality of adolescent psychopathology: testing the differentiation hypothesis

The differentiation hypothesis posits that the underlying liability distribution for psychopathology is of low dimensionality in young children, inflating diagnostic comorbidity rates, but increases in dimensionality with age as latent syndromes become less correlated. This hypothesis has not been adequately tested with longitudinal psychiatric symptom data.Confirmatory factor analyses of DSM-IV symptoms from seven common Axis I syndromes--major depression, generalized anxiety, separation anxiety, social anxiety, attention deficient hyperactivity, conduct, and oppositional defiant disorders--were conducted longitudinally, from ages 9 to 16, using the general-population Great Smoky Mountains Study sample.An eight-syndrome model fit well at all ages, and in both genders. It included social anxiety, separation anxiety, oppositional defiant, and conduct syndromes, along with a multidimensional attention deficit-hyperactivity syndrome (i.e., inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity) and a unidimensional major depression/generalized anxiety syndrome. A high degree of measurement invariance across age was found for all syndromes, except for major depression/generalized anxiety. Major depression and generalized anxiety syndromes slightly diverged at age 14-16, when they also began to explain more symptom variance. Additionally, correlations between some emotional and disruptive syndromes showed slight differentiation.Marked developmental differentiation of psychopathology, as implied by the orthogenetic principle, is not a prominent cause of preadolescent and adolescent psychiatric comorbidity.
A structured network for integration of climate knowledge into policy and territorial planning 


The OrientGate project will foster concerted and coordinated climate adaptation actions across the SEE region. The project will explore climate risks faced by coastal, rural and urban communities; contribute to a better understanding of the impact of climate variability and change on water regimes, forests and agro-ecosystems; and analyse specific adaptation needs in the hydroelectricity, agro-alimentary and tourism sectors. The principal scope of the project is to convey the up-to-date climate knowledge to policy makers who may best benefit from it, that is urban planers, nature protection authorities, regional and local development agencies, territorial and public works authorities. The principal project results include six pilot studies of specific climate adaptation exercises, a data platform connected to the EU Clearinghouse on Climate Adaptation, capacity enhancing seminars and workshops, working partnership among the hydro-meteorological offices of the SEE countries.
Adaptive Evolution of Cooperation through Darwinian Dynamics in Public Goods Games

The linear or threshold Public Goods game (PGG) is extensively accepted as a paradigmatic model to approach the evolution of cooperation in social dilemmas. Here we explore the significant effect of nonlinearity of the structures of public goods on the evolution of cooperation within the well-mixed population by adopting Darwinian dynamics, which simultaneously consider the evolution of populations and strategies on a continuous adaptive landscape, and extend the concept of evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS) as a coalition of strategies that is both convergent-stable and resistant to invasion. Results show (i) that in the linear PGG contributing nothing is an ESS, which contradicts experimental data, (ii) that in the threshold PGG contributing the threshold value is a fragile ESS, which cannot resist the invasion of contributing nothing, and (iii) that there exists a robust ESS of contributing more than half in the sigmoid PGG if the return rate is relatively high. This work reveals the significant effect of the nonlinearity of the structures of public goods on the evolution of cooperation, and suggests that, compared with the linear or threshold PGG, the sigmoid PGG might be a more proper model for the evolution of cooperation within the well-mixed population.
Electron–hole excitations and optical spectra of bulk SrO from many-body perturbation theory

This paper reports the quasiparticle band structure and the optical absorption spectrum of SrO, using many-body perturbation theory. The quasiparticle band structure is calculated within the GW approximation. Taking the electron–hole interaction into consideration, electron–hole pair states and optical excitations are obtained by solving the Bethe–Salpeter equation for the electron–hole two-particle Green function. The calculated band gap for SrO is 6.0 eV, which is in good agreement with the corresponding experimental results. The theoretical result of optical absorption spectrum for SrO is also in close agreement with the experimental data. In particular, the calculated excitation energy for the lowest exciton peak in the optical absorption spectra of SrO reproduces very well the corresponding experimental result.

Improvements in Stop Motions for Sewing Machines.

9164. Roberts, J. W., Brewster, A. P., and Bryson, B. Dec. 18, 1912. Sewing-machines; stopping-gear, automatic.- Relates to apparatus for stopping a sewing- machine when the thread breaks. A spring- pressed plunger 26 slides within a cylinder 21 which is pivoted at 22 to the machine head and is normally held to the right of its central position by the tension of the needle thread which passes through an eye 28 upon it. When the thread breaks, a spring 25 moves the cylinder 21 to the left and brings the plunger into line with a projection 19 on the needle-bar which, thereupon, engages the plunger, moves it downwards and causes it to actuate a trigger lever 34 of the stop-gear.
Principle and Prudence: Rousseau on Private Property and Inequality

This article analyzes Rousseau’s political theory of private property, fills a lacuna in the literature, and develops a novel interpretation of Rousseau’s apparently contradictory remarks. Although Rousseau was critical of private property, he did not advocate a clear and easy solution to the problems he discerned. Instead, he put forth a highly differentiated perspective that was principled and pragmatic. He rooted the legitimacy of private ownership in an ideal theory of republican property rights, which refers primarily to the normative principle of reciprocity. In his opinion, a balance of private property rights is indispensable to a well-ordered society and a just republic not only because it binds the state, society, and citizen together, and not only because it secures the independence of individual citizens from each other, but also because it enhances political legitimacy and reciprocity. On these principled grounds, Rousseau’s theory rules out “collectivist” solutions as much as vast differences in wealth and “absolutist” theories of more or less unlimited private property rights. Instead, his theory builds on the republican idea of private property as a public political institution. Within this ideal framework, Rousseau allows for certain non-ideal deviations in particular circumstances on prudential grounds.
Leg Rejuvenation

Patients increasingly seek to enhance the appearance of their legs. Elimination of unwanted leg veins, reduction of epidermal photo-aging changes such as solar lentigines and keratoses, tightening of skin laxity and reduction of adipose tissue are among the most commonly requested goals. Many patients require a combination approach to address their concerns. It is important for dermatologists to be aware of the multitude of procedures that can be performed, often in combination, to rejuvenate the leg.The purpose of this review article was to discuss procedures for improving the appearance of the leg and to share the authors experience, especially in the combination approach to leg rejuvenation.A literature search was performed to investigate cosmetic procedures being performed on the leg, with an emphasis on controlled or randomized studies. In addition, the authors contributed their personal experience.Our discussion of the literature review highlights the treatments for leg veins, unwanted fat, cellulite, and photodamage of the legs that are most supported in peer-reviewed publications.A synergistic, combination approach to leg rejuvenation works best. This includes the use of injectable agents, energy-based devices, and more invasive surgical procedures.
