Cryogenic wide-Area Light Detectors with Excellent Resolution (CALDER)
Start date: Mar 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2018,
"In the comprehension of fundamental laws of nature, particle physics is now facing two important questions:1) What is the nature of the neutrino, is it a standard (Dirac) particle or a Majorana particle? The nature of the neutrino plays a crucial role in the global framework of particle interactions and in cosmology. The only practicable way to answer this question is to search for a nuclear proc ...

ET-LCGT Telescopes: Exchange of Scientists (ELiTES)
Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
A new way to investigate the Universe will be possible when the new generation of gravitational wave telescopes becomes operative. First, the advanced detectors, then the 3rd generation observatories will allow to detect the gravitational wave signal emitted in catastrophic event in the Universe. The Large-scale Cryogenic Gravitational wave Telescope (LCGT, now named KAGRA) in Japan and the Einste ...

GErmanium MId-infrared plasmoNIcs for sensing (GEMINI)
Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
We aim at laying the foundations of a novel paradigm in optical sensing by introducing molecule-specific strong light-matter interaction at mid-infrared wavelengths through the engineering of plasmonic effects in group-IV semiconductors.The key enabling technology is the novel germanium-on-silicon material platform: heavily-doped Ge films display plasma frequencies in the mid-infrared range. This ...

European Particle physics Latin American NETwork (EPLANET)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2016,
"The High Energy Physics (HEP) European scientific community has developed cutting-edge, large-scale facilities that make it a world leader. Particle Physics Programmes in Europe are attracting participation of groups from non-European countries, in particular from Latin America. In the reciprocal direction, the Pierre Auger Observatory for High Energy Cosmic Rays, recently established in Argentin ...

Non-commutative deformations of quantum field theory (NCD of QFT)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
Non-commutative quantum field theories and their associated deformed symmetries provide intriguing examples of models beyond the realm of standard local quantum field theory. Of particular interest are those theories in which space-time coordinates form a Lie algebra since the same structure is encountered in the quantization of gravitating particles in three dimensions. Associated to this type ...
