Model-based optimizing control - from a vision to industrial reality (MOBOCON)

Start date: Jun 1, 2012, End date: May 31, 2017,

"This proposal focuses on the operation of processing units in chemical and biochemical production plants. A new approach, demonstrated recently in the lab and pilot scales as being feasible, is to perform a dynamic online optimization of the plant operating parameters in order to achieve an economically optimal operation while meeting constraints on emissions, product quality and operating limits ...

Macro-Risk Assessment and Stabilization Policies with New Early Warning Signals (RASTANEWS)

Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2016,

"RASTANEWS intends to enhance knowledge base, at both theoretical and an applied level, on many aspects of the future of macro-economic and monetary integration in Europe thus paving the way to a revised governance of the EMU, and the EU as a whole, in the wake of the debt crisis. We see three key issues about the working of the EU macro-economy that deserve deeper investigation. The first is th ...

Pico-second Silicon photomultiplier-Electronics- & Crystal research-Marie-Curie-Network (PicoSEC-MCNet)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

We propose to establish a special detector-training network aiming to extend the application of cutting-edge technologies developed in High Energy Physics (HEP) to other domains, such as medical imaging. A large number of detector techniques, developed for and used in particle physics experiments, has been transferred successfully to other fields. Most prominent are their applications in medicine, ...

Cooperativity in Highly Excited Rydberg Ensembles - Control and Entanglement (COHERENCE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

"The central goal of the ""COHERENCE"" network is the training of Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) and Experienced Researchers (ERs) to the highest level of international excellence within the rapidly growing field of electronically highly excited (Rydberg) gases and aggregates. The systems range from single atoms to large mesoscopic ensembles with full control over motional and internal degrees of ...

Novel multimodal endoscopic probes for simultaneous PET/ultrasound imaging for image-guided interventions (ENDOTOFPET-US)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

In the frame of this project it is proposed to define and build a bi-modal PET-US (Positron Emission Tomography and Ultrasound) endoscopic probe combining in a miniaturized system a fully digital, 200ps time resolution Time of Flight PET detector head (TOF-PET) coupled to a commercial ultrasound (US) assisted biopsy endoscope and to launch the first steps of clinical validation.The project address ...

Strongly Correlated Ultracold Rydberg Gases (CoRyGas)

Start date: Jun 1, 2012, End date: May 31, 2014,

Neutral atoms in highly-excited (Rydberg) states are strongly-polarisable particles, which due to their exaggerated properties can experience quantum effects and interactions over macroscopic distances. Many-body systems of Rydberg atoms offer unique opportunities to create and investigate strong correlations in ultra-cold atomic samples. This work will be devoted to studying the collective effec ...

Development of a high sensitive and specific nanobiosensor based on surface enhanced vibrational spectroscopy dedicated to the in vitro proteins detection and disease diagnosis (Nanoantenna)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

The main goal of our proposal is to develop a novel optical nanobiosensor based on extraordinary vibrational signal enhancement of the proteins to be detected. To reach vibrational signal enhancement, we will exploit the optical properties of specially designed metallic nanoparticles which should act as nanoantenna and the associated field enhancement to obtain a direct detection of proteins bound ...

novel DIagnostic Techniques for future particle Accelerators: A Marie Curie Initial Training NETwork (DITANET)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2012,

"The Council of the European Union expressively welcomed the development of a first European roadmap for research infrastructures. The aim of this recently published roadmap was to identify vital new infrastructures that are crucial for the future European research area, in particular for capacity building. These multi-disciplinary projects require substantial investments, forty percent of which ...
