Optical Infrared Coordination Network for Astronomy (OPTICON)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2017, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2020,
Europe has become a global leader in optical-near infrared astronomy through excellence in space and ground-based experimental and theoretical research. While the major infrastructures are delivered through major national and multi-national agencies (ESO, ESA) their continuing scientific competitiveness requires a strong community of scientists and technologists distributed across Europe’s nations ...

Small Bodies: Near and Far (SBNAF)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 mars 2019,
We propose a benchmark study that will address critical points in reconstructing physical and thermal properties of near-Earth, main-belt, and trans-Neptunian objects. The combination of the visual and thermal data from the ground and from astrophysics missions (like Herschel, Spitzer and Akari) is key to improving the scientific understanding of these objects. The development of new tools will be ...

Optical Infrared Co-ordination Network for Astronomy (OPTICON)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
Optical-infrared astronomy in Europe is in a state of transition and opportunity, with the goal of a viable structured European scale community in sight. A strong astronomical community requires access to state of the art infrastructures (telescopes), equipped with the best possible instrumentation, and with that access being open to all on a basis of competitive excellence. Further, the community ...

Exploitation of Space Data for Innovative Helio- and Asteroseismology (SPACEINN)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
Observations of oscillations on the solar and stellar surfaces have emerged as a unique and extremely powerful tool to gain information on, and understanding of, the processes in the Sun and stars, and the origin of the variability in the solar and stellar output.Through helio- and asteroseismology detailed inferences of the internal structure and rotation of the Sun, and extensive information on ...

Sounding Stars with Kepler (ASK)
Date du début: 1 mai 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
The NASA space mission Kepler is providing continuous high-precision photometry of thousands of stars. The aim of Kepler is the discovery of Earth-size planets around stars similar to the Sun, and a thorough study of the continuum of planetary systems in the Universe.Because of their unprecedented precision, the Kepler data act as a precious source of information for various astrophysical studies ...

Environment for Human Exploration and RObotic Experimentation in Space (eHEROES)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,
The consortium e-HEROES aims at exploiting the existing data gathered on severalEuropean and international space missions, and to produce new value-added dataproducts to provide the best estimate and prediction of the threats thatmissions of exploration will encounter in reaching beyond the Earth orbit, tothe Moon, to Mars and beyond. The scope of the project is to characterise theenvironment in s ...

Cryogenic Electronics for Space Applications and Research (CESAR)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mars 2014,
"Observations from space offer huge improvements in many fields of science. They expand widely the range of the spectral information compared to ground applications. Recently, the use of space qualified cryocoolers to decrease the temperature of instruments down to few kelvins and even below, allows the use of new resistive sensors exhibiting outstanding performances when compared to classical dev ...

European Risk from Geomagnetically Induced Currents (EURISGIC)
Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2014,
"Geomagnetically induced currents (GIC), occurring during magnetic storms, pose a natural disaster risk to the reliable operation of electric power transmission grids, a European critical infrastructure as defined by the Council Directive 2008/114/EC.The EURISGIC project will produce the first European-wide real-time prototype forecast service of GIC in power systems, based on in-situ solar wind o ...
