Public authorities together with a holistic network approach on the way to low-carbon municipalities

The overarching objective of the PATH2LC project is to support policy makers and public authorities at local level in the transition process towards a low carbon society. Through a holistic network approach, stakeholders in public authorities are linked among municipalities in order to enable peer-to-peer learning and increase the engagement in energy and climate transition. The network approach shall also accelerate the implementation of Sustainable Energy (and Climate) Action Plan (SE(C)AP) measures.
The PATH2LC project will foster the exchange of existing knowledge and experiences among municipalities, enhance coordination among different administrative bodies within the municipalities and improve cooperation with local stakeholders and civil society. It will furthermore provide stakeholders in public authorities with the necessary planning and monitoring tools to implement transition roadmaps. 
The following five existing networks are the starting point of the project: UCSA - Joint Office for Environmental Sustainability (Italy), Sustainable City Network (Greece), OesteSustentável (Portugal), Cities Northern Netherlands (NL), Rhône Network (FR).
They benefit from a well-established network process of the so-called learning energy efficiency networks (LEEN), supplemented with in-depth capacity building and support regarding heating and cooling topics. Due to the international composition of the networks, cross-country experiences can be shared. The project is accompanied by a socio-scientific evaluation in order to make the results transferable to other municipalities as well as by a dissemination strategy in order to make network activities visible.
Platform for heterogeneous integration of nems on ics

Within the ERC-M&M´s Starting Grant project (No.277879) we are exploring an innovative platform technology for wafer-level heterogeneous integration of integrated circuits (ICs) with micro/nano-electromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS). This type of heterogeneous 3D integration technology is part of the More-than-Moore paradigm depicted in the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS)  and allows the combination of standard CMOS-based integrated circuits and high-performance MEMS devices to form complex and highly integrated systems that are not possible to manufacture with other micro-manufacturing approaches. First heterogeneous integration platforms for IC-integrated MEMS products have already been commercialized with great success by InvenSense (USA) and by mCube (USA) in collaboration with TSMC (Taiwan), the world’s largest CMOS foundry. However, the established heterogeneous integration technologies have limitations with respect to the type of MEMS devices that can be realized and the extent to which the MEMS-ICs system component can be miniaturized. The heterogeneous integration platform developed in this ERC-M&M’s+2 Proof of Concept proposal is suitable for a variety of small-sized MEMS components with large-volume markets, including infrared (IR) detector arrays, micro-mirror arrays, ultra-low power circuits based on NEM switches (a specific target application are low-power FPGAs), gyroscopes, accelerometers, microphones, etc. Thus, the heterogeneous integration platform is addressing a potential multi-billion € market. In contrast to the competing technologies, our heterogeneous integration platform is enabling the integration of ICs and MEMS/NEMS devices with extremely small device dimensions in the nm-range, very small via dimensions in the sub-1μm-range and placement accuracies of the MEMS/NEMS components on the target ICs in the nm-range.
Around Trieste

The project aims at enhancing and promoting those areas of the cross-border territory which are not yet sufficiently known and with a potential still to be developed. In particular, the project aims at providing information about the various cultures, popular traditions, ethnography, naturalistic and historical peculiarities of the border areas around Trieste. Starting from the city of Trieste, a famous destination visited by many, the project will enhance the surrounding territory, the natural resources and the tourist destinations - the most interesting as well as the least known - which are directly or indirectly under the influence of the urban area and extend to the margins of the cross-border area. Against this background, tourist packages for one or more days will be created targeting both individual tourists and groups, for instance companies’ associations, elderly people, students, school groups, disabled persons, etc. The main purpose of the project is to qualify and diversify the tourist offer of the area and to enhance the elements of attraction throughout the year, with the purpose of matching sustainable tourism with the existing natural heritage.
Contaminated land remediation through energy crops for soil improvement to liquid biofuel strategies

Biofuels are one of few options for decarbonizing transport in the short to medium term. However, they are often criticised for indirect land use change (ILUC), which is critical due to lack of high quality agricultural land and increasing world population. At the same time, significant contaminated land areas remain unused.  
CERESiS aims to provide a win-win sustainable solution to both issues by facilitating land decontamination through phytoremediation, growing energy crops to produce clean biofuels. In the longer term, this will increase the land available for agriculture, while producing non-ILUC biofuel.
The project is based on three pillars. The phytoremediation pillar will identify a range of promising energy crops, focusing on key contaminants worldwide. They will be trialed in North, South, Eastern Europe and Brazil, with samples characterised and converted to biofuels. 
The technological pillar will optimize two clean biofuel conversion technologies, Supercritical Water Gasification & Fast Pyrolysis integrated with novel contaminant separation technologies, focusing on eliminating, stabilising or retrieving the contaminants in an easy to manage form. 
The Decision Support pillar will develop an open access, modular and expandable Decision Support System able to identify optimal solutions for each application. It will incorporate land, phytoremediation, technological, economic, environmental parameters providing critical information to stakeholders & policy makers on the suitability of combinations of phytoremediation strategies and conversion technologies for particular sites, contaminants, environmental restrictions etc. It will include Techno-economic analysis of pathways, LCA & LCC, supply chain optimization, and performance assessment against SDG goals.
Partners from five EU countries, Ukraine, Brazil and Canada representing the entire value chain collaborate for the development and assessment of the integrated pathways.

Identifying the Challenges of Iran’s Health Houses and Presenting a Solution

After more than three decades of network system design, epidemiological transition, as well as the change in needs and expectations of rural communities, have brought some challenges for Iran's health houses. So, this study is aimed at identifying these challenges through a qualitative study.This was a qualitative and phenomenological study which was carried out in three phases in Iran in 2015. In the first phase, the required data was collected through semi-structured interviews with selected experts, health workers and referrals to Iran's health houses, so that all were selected purposefully. In the second phase, two expert panels were conducted to provide solutions. In the third phase the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats were evaluated using the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (SWOT) method. The data of the first two phases were analyzed using the Collaizi method.Fourteen subthemes under five themes of ; quality of provided services, human resources, infrastructure, inter-sectorial and intra-sectorial relations, and contextual factors were identified as the challenges of Iran's health houses, and consist of fourteen sub themes. Continuous education of health workers, equipping and renovating old buildings, improving inter and intra-sectorial relationships and the proportionating workload with a number of workers, were the most important solutions.The study showed that, over time, many of the functions of Iran's health houses have been faced with problems, therefore, training the manpower, equipping Iran's health houses and creating better public spaces and building culture are recommended to enhance the effectiveness and revisions based on the study.
Evolution of electronic structure in Eu1−La Fe2As2

Abstract We report an angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study of electronic structures of Eu 1− x La x Fe 2 As 2 single crystals, in which the spin density wave transition is suppressed with La doping. In the paramagnetic state, the Fermi surface maps are similar for all dopings, with chemical potential shifts corresponding to the extra electrons introduced by the La doping. In the spin density wave state, we identify electronic structure signatures that relate to the spin density wave transition. Bands around M show that the energy of the system is saved by the band shifts towards high energies, and the shifts decrease with increasing doping, in agreement with the weakened magnetic order.
Occurrence of viral pathogens in Penaeus monodon post-larvae from aquaculture hatcheries

Viral pathogens appear to exert the most signiﬁcant constraints on the growth and survival of crustaceans under culture conditions. The prevalence of viral pathogens White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV), Hepatopancreatic Parvo Virus (HPV), Monodon Baculo Virus (MBV) and Infectious Hypodermal and Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHHNV) in Penaeus monodon post-larvae was studied. Samples collected from different hatcheries and also samples submitted by farmers from Kerala were analyzed. Out of 104 samples collected, WSSV was detected in 12.5% of the post-larvae samples. Prevalence of concurrent infections by HPV, MBV and WSSV (either dual or triple infection) was present in 60.6% of the total post-larvae tested. Out of the 51 double positives, 98% showed either HPV or IHHNV infection. HPV or IHHNV was detected in 11 post-larval samples showing triple viral infection. This is the first report of IHHNV from India. Result of this study reveals the lack of efficient screening strategies to eradicate viruses in hatchery reared post-larvae.
Improvement of Energy Efficiency in Technology Parks of the Med Area through Intelligent Models and Uses

The project SMART-MED-PARKS is a 24-month project which aims at developing the Smart Parks concept in the Med Area. The cornerstone of this concept relies on the idea that: energy demand in Parks should be largely covered with local power plants. A high degree of energy self-sufficiency will allow Mediterranean Parks direct energy savings related to losses in distribution and transport network. Besides it will allow the incorporation of technologies that make use of renewable energy or waste energy sources. Three main relevant aspects will be covered throughout this project: - Energy demand - Generation technologies - Network integration/management. Partners, together with the participation of a transnational expert group, will carry out the characterization of current energy demand and facilities for generation and distribution of energy in Parks. This will allow to size and design energy facilities and technologies that better fit with demand profiles locally. The analysis in different Parks from several countries, counting on the end-users opinion, will also permit an exchange of best practices to get a high degree of energy self-sufficiency and a better integration of existing energy networks. Once finished the characterization, following a common methodology, the partnership will work on the development of a catalogue of technologies for local power plants and integration with existing energy networks, through a deep review of potential innovative technologies that satisfy energy requirements with a better performance. The catalogue will be developed under various criteria: analysis and modelling of generation and distribution technologies, energy demand reduction and consumption technologies, and control and smart metering technologies and integration with existing networks. The catalogue will be commonly approved and results will be shared with the Transnational Expert Group and transferred to other identified projects (as mentioned in further section of AF). Furthermore, the partnership will commonly work and define a specific Multi Cristeria Software Tool (from now on SW tool) to help the modelling of a Smart-park. Finally, Pilot Actions to transform a conventional Technology Park into a Smart Technology Park will be carried out in 5 selected parks. Identified technologies and SW tool will be transferred to the selected parks through pilot actions in order to improve current use of energy in Med Parks to integrate a future approach to Smart-Park model. The partnership will bring together key actors directly involved in energy efficiency sector, both at institutional and operational level, to ensure a major diffusion, and impact of activities and will create synergies with past/current projects.
Molecular robotics for synthesis and catalysis

The aim of this project is to design, synthesize and investigate the operation of synthetic molecular machines capable of performing sophisticated tasks in chemical synthesis. The molecular machines are inspired by biological systems, where substrates are shuttled between different enzymatic sites, undergoing chemical transformations at each step. Control of substrate position allows for reactions to occur in a specific sequence, with the molecular machine dictating the selectivity of each successive chemical reaction. The project both seeks to optimize the structure of the molecular machines for use as a synthetic platform and demonstrate their usefulness for synthesis and catalysis in model reactions. The successful demonstration of this concept would mark the beginning of a fundamentally new approach for the construction of molecules.

Integrated Treatment of CaCl2 , Citric Acid and Sorbitol Reduces Loss of Quality of Button Mushroom (Agaricus Bisporus ) during Postharvest Storage

Because of the short shelf life of button mushroom, its long-term preservation efforts gained momentum. In this study, we evaluated the efficiency of chemical dips for quality maintenance of button mushrooms during storage and compared three different treatments: water (CK), T1 (2.5% w/v CaCl2, 0.5% w/v citric acid) and T2 (2.5% w/v CaCl2, 0.5% w/v citric acid, 3% w/v sorbitol). Changes in weight, firmness, color, malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), hydroxyl radical (-OH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) were determined. As compared to control, T1 and T2 maintained weight, color and texture during storage. Downregulations in H2O2, −OH and MDA contents were observed, whereas the activities of SOD, CAT, POD and APX were increased. T2 was more efficient in maintaining quality and reducing oxidative stress of button mushrooms within 6 days, while T1 showed the same effects for 12 days as compared to CK. Practical Applications Mushrooms are nutritionally and medicinally important and delicate food stuff. Several techniques have been employed for the preservation of mushrooms in order to cater the shorter shelf life problem of mushrooms. The integrated treatment employed in our study showed significant enhancement in the shelf life of mushrooms at 12C for 12 days. From this study, it can be assumed that these treatments can increase the shelf life of mushrooms for 1 week at room temperature and 1 month at 4C. This treatment is considered cost-effective, durable and safe. The components are easily available and have no side effects on food, consumer and environment. Furthermore, it can be introduced in domestic as well as in commercial levels for preservation of mushrooms. It can increase the mushroom shelf life and can decrease mushroom spoilage. This study suggests further investigations about application of this treatment for preservation of other perishable food stuffs.

The first european daggers: function, meaning, and social significance

The researcher is moving from Italy to Newcastle University (United Kingdom) to carry out EuroDag, the first ever comparative study of the function of early European stone and copper/bronze daggers, c. 3800-1500 BC. The EuroDag project aims to understand how early daggers were used, for what purposes, and in which social contexts, while also exploring whether meaningful functional differences could be discerned amongst this broad class of objects based on manufacturing technology, chronology, typology, or regional distribution. The research problem will be addressed through an original combination of museum- and lab-based microwear analysis (to be conducted on 300 prehistoric flint and copper/bronze daggers from Italy, central Europe and Iberia) and wide-ranging functional experiments with purpose-built replica daggers. The importance of the project is threefold: (1) this is the first comprehensive functional analysis of a class of objects that, though widespread in Neolithic and Early Bronze Age Europe, is still poorly understood; (2) it is the first attempt ever made to examine both flint and metal daggers as a coherent set of artefacts; and (3) it is the first time that a researcher tries to develop a unified experimental and analytical methodology for the investigation of both stone and metal objects from world prehistory. The research will dramatically reshape the agenda of European prehistory by revealing the functional basis of the social significance and fortune of early daggers. Whilst working on the project, the researcher will acquire new skills in prehistoric metallurgy, experimental archaeology, and metalwork wear analysis; she will also develop valuable experience in teaching and lecturing, academic writing, and public outreach. In turn, she will transfer her considerable specialist knowledge of prehistoric lithic industries, and her remarkable microwear analysis skillset, to the host institution, where such expertise does not currently exist.
Terrorism, Military Expenditure, and Foreign Capital Inflow: An Empirical Study for India

Abstract
In this chapter, the relationship between terrorism and military expenditure and between terrorism and foreign capital inflow has been studied empirically with Indian data. We considered an index for terrorism based on the number of terrorism incidents, the number of deaths and the number of injuries. Data are collected from the period of 1977–1978 to 2016–2017 on the incidence of terrorism, obtained from the data released by Government of India in July 2016. Augmented Dicky–Fuller (ADF) test is used for unit root and stationarity checks. Johansen co-integration test is performed for testing the presence of co-integrating relationship between Index of terrorism and military expenditure and also between FDI flow and index of terrorism. As a result, a co-integrating relationship is also found between terrorism and military expenditure but not between terrorism and foreign capital inflow. Vector error correction model (VECM) is used to study both the short-run and the long-run relationships between the variables.
