ROtational Motions: a new observable for seismologY (ROMY)

Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2019,

"When the ground shakes from earthquakes, the oceans, or the atmosphere, it not only translates (up-down, sideways), but also undergoes rotational motions. To fully characterize seismic sources and wave fields theoreticians have insisted for decades that these motions should also be measured. However, this was hampered by the substantial technical difficulties in observing rotational motions with ...

"The project addresses the two greatest unresolved problems in quantum field theory and gravity.The question of UV-completion beyond the Planck length and the mysteries of black holes. It is grounded on a recent program of research where we have put forward a fundamentally different unifying approach to both of these problems.This approach is based on modeling Black Holes as self-sustained Bo ...

Crop production worldwide is sustained through nitrogen fertilizer produced via the energy-demanding Haber-Bosch process. One group of closely related plants evolved to become independent of nitrogen from the soil by engaging in symbiosis with bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen to plant-usable ammonium and are hosted within specialized organs, the root nodules. Nodulation evolved several t ...

Ecology from Farm to Fork Of microbial drug Resistance and Transmission (EFFORT)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2018,

EFFORT studies the complex epidemiology and ecology of antimicrobial resistance and the interactions between bacterial communities, commensals and pathogens in animals, the food chain and the environment.This will be conducted by a combination of epidemiological and ecological studies using newly developed molecular and bio-informatics technologies. EFFORT will include an exposure assessment of hu ...

Theory of Mantle, Core and Technological Materials (ToMCaT)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2018,

I propose to work full time on this ERC Advanced project to predict properties of Earth and technological materials using fundamental physics, spending half of my time at University College London, building a research group, and educating students and post-docs. I compute properties of minerals and melts to better understand them, and estimate properties when data are unavailable. The latter has b ...

"DNA double-strand breaks are perhaps the most harmful DNA damages and result in carcinogenic chromosome aberrations. Cells protect their genome by activating a complex signaling and repair network, collectively denoted DNA damage response (DDR). A key initial step of the DDR is the activation of the 360 kDa checkpoint kinase ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated) by the multifunctional DSB repair fa ...

Electroactive Donor-Acceptor Covalent Organic Frameworks (ECOF)

Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2018,

"The effective conversion of light into chemical or electrical energy is one of the major challenges of humanity during the 21st century. Organic bulk heterojunctions of polymers or aggregates of small molecules combining donor- and acceptor-functionality offer promising prospects for effective light-induced energy conversion. In order to efficiently utilize the solar energy, interpenetrating netw ...

Quantum Monte Carlo simulation of Feynman diagrams (FDIAGMC)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2016,

"The research field of this proposal is situated in the domains of computational physics, mostly quantum Monte Carlo simulations, field theoretical approaches to condensed matter systems and dilute ultra-cold atoms. We want to systematically develop a new diagrammatic Monte Carlo method, which will be applied to cold gases and strongly interacting systems in solid state physics. The method has the ...

Biodiversity and ecosystem services in the microbial realm (Microdive)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,

Biodiversity losses and nutrient loading are considered as two major factors affecting the boundaries of a proposed safe operating space for humanity. Whereas there is knowledge about individual effects of biodiversity and eutrophication on aquatic systems, the strong interactions between these factors were only recently shown. The aim of this proposal is to develop an understanding of the complex ...

"MORAPOL pursues two basic objectives that entail both empirically and theoretically fundamental advances of the state-of-the-art. First, MORAPOL takes an innovative empirical focus. It is the first to provide systematic empirical knowledge on the development of morality policies. This policy area is so far unexplored from a policy-analytical perspective. The focus is on changing patterns of moral ...

Methodological Cosmopolitanism - In the Laboratory of Climate Change (Cosmo-Climate)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2016,

Climate change, framed in social scientific terms, offers a causal and moral narrative which connects, for example, users of electric toothbrushes in the USA and couples quarrelling about habits of consumption in Europe and Japan, with representatives disputing about a post-Kyoto agreement at global climate conferences, all the way to victims of flooding and draught events in Australia, China, Ind ...
