Frontiers in Quantum Materials Control (Q-MAC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2019,

The overarching goal of the present proposal is to exploit materials design, coherent optical methods and multiple theoretical approaches to deterministically control ordered states of strongly correlated electron materials, also referred to as “quantum” or “complex” materials. The underlying ideas can be applied to vast number of problems in materials physics, but the stated goal is that of optim ...

Holographic applications of supergravity (APPSG)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

In this project we will develop supergravity tools to study the strong coupled sectors of High Energy and Condensed Matter systems using the gauge gravity duality. We will first find, via consistent truncation, new large classes of lower-dimensional supergravity models that admit an exact string theory embedding, and will fully characterise and classify them. We will use these theories to propose, ...

Mass hierarchy and particle physics at the TeV scale (MassTeV)

Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

The research goal of this proposal is the investigation of the most fundamental aspects of particle physics models and gravity at high energies, and establishing the connection between these findings and experiments. The main fundamental questions that will be addressed are: What is the origin of mass for the mediators of the weak interactions and its connection with the masses of quarks and lepto ...

Flow energy harvesting in assemblies of vibrating solids: stability analysis and non-linear coupled dynamics (FLOWENERGY)

Start date: Jun 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2014,

"The development of new energy harvesting technologies from renewable sources is essential for the European Union not only to prove its leadership in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but also to achieve a greater energetic independence from limited fossil fuels. To assess the performance and identify the potential of particular technological designs to harvest energy from geophysical flows, a fu ...

The Development of a Novel Tin-Free Radical Methodology and its Application to the Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (+)-Ineleganolide (RADICALS 2009)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"Preliminary work in the Zard's group has shown that cyclopropylacyl radicals can be generated from the corresponding xanthates. These unique species do not easily undergo decarbonylation or ring opening processes. These features can be exploited because the products, cyclopropyl ketones, have been found to be exceptional substrates in organic synthesis. Additionally, control of the decarbony ...

EXPLORATORY HEAVY-QUARK JET TOMOGRAPHY OF QUARK-GLUON PLASMA AT THE LHC (ExploreQQJetInHI@LHC)

Start date: Jun 1, 2010, End date: May 31, 2012,

The unprecedented center of mass energy available at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) opens a new window for the exploration of Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP). Jet shape and jet topology measurements will become feasible as a new, differential, and accurate test of the underlying QCD theory and are instrumental in discovering novel effective interactions and phenomena that arise in matter under extreme c ...
