XUV/X-ray Multidimensional Spectroscopy of Fundamental Electron Dynamics and Impulsive Control of X-ray Light (X-MUSIC)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,
"Interaction of extreme&controlled light fields with matter is driving an ongoing revolution in our understanding of quantum physics. Controlled—pulsed—visible lasers have enabled time-dependent two-dimensional (2D) spectroscopy currently transforming chemistry, and led to key milestones such as frequency combs.Despite progress on coherent soft- and hard-x-ray pulsed sources during the last 10 ye ...

Cold Collisions and the Pathways Toward Life in Interstellar Space (ASTROLAB)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,
"Modern telescopes like Herschel and ALMA open up a new window into molecular astrophysics to investigate a surprisingly rich chemistry that operates even at low densities and low temperatures. Observations with these instruments have the potential of unraveling key questions of astrobiology, like the accumulation of water and pre-biotic organic molecules on (exo)planets from asteroids and comets. ...

Precision Measurements of Fundamental Constants (MEFUCO)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2016,
"The fine structure constant α, the masses and magnetic moments of elementary particles like the electron or proton, and others are fundamental quantities which determine the basic structure of the universe. They can not be predicted by theory, but their precise determination is required to enable the comparison of theoretical models with experimental observations at the highest possible level. Th ...

Ultracold negative ions by laser cooling (UNIC)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2016,
Laser cooling is a well-established technique for the creation of ultracold particle ensembles in beams or traps. Over the past 30 years, it has become an indispensable tool in atomic physics and has opened many exciting new research fields. Both in positive atomic ions and in neutral atoms, the valence electron is bound in a Coulomb potential. The resulting infinite series of excited states provi ...

INVISIBLES
Date du début: 1 avr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mars 2016,
"NEUTRINOS AND DARK MATTER are the most abundant particles in the universe and yet they remained unnoticed -invisible- for a long time, due to their tenuous couplings to the ordinary matter we are composed of.Neutrino masses inferred from neutrino oscillations and the existence of dark matter constitute the first evidence ever of particle physics beyond the Standard Model. A wide experimental prog ...

Ultrafast atomic and molecular physics at x-ray free electron lasers (X ray FEL)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2010, Date de fin: 31 août 2014,
The ultrafast interaction of x rays with matter is a new field that is enabled experimentally by novel light sources like free-electron lasers and is essentially unexplored theoretically. Exciting new possibilities open up in many areas of science for which the theoretical basis for their understanding needs to be established. This is the goal of the presented proposal with respect to fundamental ...

Pushing the limits of online mass spectrometry (EXOTRAP)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2012,
"Mass measurements of utmost accuracy are extremely relevant for many physics areas: For particles like the electron or the nucleons, the mass represents fundamental properties of building blocks of nature. For complex composite quantum mechanical systems such as molecules, atoms and nuclei, masses allow to determine the binding energy of the system and thus give access to all fundamental physical ...

A High Intensity Neutrino Oscillation Facility in Europe (EUROnu)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 31 août 2012,
The recent discovery that the neutrino changes type (or flavour) as it travels through space, a phenomenon referred to as neutrino oscillations, implies that neutrinos have a tiny, but non-zero mass. This implies that the Standard Model of particle physics is incomplete. The implications are far reaching: e.g neutrino interactions may be responsible for the removal of all the anti-matter created i ...

Massive Neutrinos: Investigating their Theoretical Origin and Phenomenology (MANITOP)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 31 août 2012,
The aim of the proposed project is to shed light on the theoretical origin of neutrino masses and to explore the phenomenological consequences of the model predictions and of possible mechanisms giving rise to neutrino mass. The results of many upcoming experiments in the neutrino sector and beyond will be a crucial discriminator for models and will have to be followed closely. Apart from the usua ...
