Magnetic fields and the outflows during the formation and evolution of stars (OutflowMagn)

Start date: May 1, 2014, End date: Apr 30, 2019,

The outflows of young and old stars play a crucial role in the cycle of matter in galaxies. Stars and planetary systems are formed through complex physical processes during the collapse of gas clouds with outflows a required ingredient. At the end of a stars life, stellar outflows are the main source of heavy elements that are essential for the formation of stars, planets and life. Magnetic field ...

Illuminating the role of magnetic fields around dying stars (Magnetic AGB)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

The study of the processes governing the end of the life of stars such as our Sun are of fundamental importance. During the final stages of their lives, stars undergo extreme mass-loss in which they expel large amounts of dust, atoms and molecules into the interstellar environment. This material is one of the main sources of the heavy elements essential for further formation of stars, planets and ...

Preparing for MID-SKA receiving concepts in South-Africa (MIDPREP)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

"MIDPREP enables knowledge and staff exchange between two leading European institutes in research, development and building radio astronomy instrumentation and three South African partners collaborating e.g. through the Square Kilometre Array precursor MeerKAT in the Karoo as framework for (inter)national human-capital, research and infrastructure. In Europe novel approaches to radio astronomy i.e ...

A detailed study of the chemistry, physics, and structure in AGB stars (STUDYSTARS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

The proposed research will form a comprehensive study of the chemistry and structure of evolved stars on the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) and their circumstellar envelopes (CSEs), and form a powerful basis also to study the origin and evolution of heavy elements in galaxies, and the effect of AGB evolution on the formation of stars and planets. The focus of the proposed research is on the chemica ...

A European volcanological supersite in Iceland: a monitoring system and network for the future (FUTUREVOLC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

The main objectives of FUTUREVOLC are to establish an integrated volcanological monitoring procedure through European collaboration, develop new methods to evaluate volcanic crises, increase scientific understanding of magmatic processes and improve delivery of relevant information to civil protection and authorities. To reach these objectives the project combines broad European expertise in seism ...

Welding Metallurgy and Cracking in Superalloys (WELDMECS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

"Predictive, metallurgy informed crack criteria will be developed within the WELDMECS project. These crack criteria are developed in a format appropriate for implementation to finite element software. It will be useful for general thermo-mechanical simulations estimating the risk for various crack formations. The primary target in current topic description (JTI-CS-2012-3-SAGE-02-029) is to utilize ...

Improving the gender diversity management in materials research institutions (DIVERSITY)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

DIVERSITY is a 36 months CSA (Supporting) project involving 14 partners from 11 European countries (Germany, Austria, Belgium, France, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Slovenia, UK, Slovakia, Greece). It represents a pilot initiative of networking policy makers, human resources experts, women scientists’ networks, and scientists to support the institutional culture change for a greater inclusiveness of women ...
