H2020-INFRAIA-2019-1; 871149; Europlanet 2024 Research Infrastructure – EPN-2024-RI, co-investigator, The Europlanet 2024 Research Infrastructure (RI) provides the pan-EU infrastructure needed to address the major scientific and technological challenges facing modern planetary science and strengthen Europe’s position at the forefront of space exploration. Europlanet 2024 RI builds on the foundations of a series of highly successful EU-funded projects that have created the leading Virtual Observatory for planetary data and the largest, most diverse collection in the world today of field and laboratory facilities capable of simulating and analysing planetary environments. Europlanet 2024 RI provides Transnational Access (TA) to an enhanced set of world-leading field and laboratory facilities, Virtual Access (VA) to state-of-the-art data services and tools linked to the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), and Networking Activities (NA) to widen the user base and draw in new partners from Under Represented States (URS), non-EU countries, industry and interdisciplinary fields, and to train the next generation of RI leaders and users.

NASA ROSES NNH18ZDA001N-RDAP; A multidisciplinary approach to unravel photon and electron processes and their interaction with the coma of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, co-investigator. The project enhances the scientific return of the Rosetta mission by placing several instruments’ observations and datasets (measured brightnesses, energy distributions, and densities) into context with identified coma processes. The direct combination of the results of multiple Rosetta instruments goes above and beyond the mission’s previously funded work, which primarily focused on planning, acquisition, archiving, and data analysis of individual instruments. This project and the result of our analyses made possible only by the proximity and long-duration escort by Rosetta through the main activity cycle of 67P, serves as a template – a Rosetta Stone – to place the mission's results into the context of the larger body of comets that can be studied from Earth. All these proposed analyses are accomplished with the data currently available in the PDS. https://nspires.nasaprs.com/external/solicitations/summary!init.do?solId={47280281-AE58-273D-7EB6-2BDAA20F18DB}&path=open

APVV-19-0386; Ion and electron processes for advanced spectrometric methods, co-investigator


Molecular processes induced by electrons and ions are abundant in many different environments such as interstellar space, atmospheres of small bodies and planets, natural and industrial plasmas, novel nanotechnologies such as focused electron and ion beam etching and deposition, analytical methods or even in agricultural applications. The main goal of current basic research project will be understanding the processes associated with electron and ion interactions with gases, including electron ionisation, electron induced excitation and dissociation, electron attachment, and finally the interaction of positive and negative ions with the molecules in detail. The studies will cover the field of the kinetics of the processes (cross sections and rate coefficients), and energetics of the reactions (analysis of the reaction products and energy thresholds for their formation). The experimental studies will also be supported by quantum chemical calculations when needed. To reach the project goals the Electron and Plasma Physics Laboratory (EPPL) at the Comenius University Bratislava will use advanced spectrometric methods – emission spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and ion mobility spectrometry which will provide complex understanding of the analysed group of processes. The EPPL utilizes unique combination of experimental devices aimed specifically at studying these elementary processes. During the course of the project all the experimental methods will be further developed to broaden their capabilities and applications. The project will also draw support from the run-in cooperation of the EPPL with excellent research organizations such as Auburn University, USA in the field of astrophysics, University of Kent, UK in the field of plasma jets and discharges or National Research Nuclear University, Russia in the field of ion spectrometry. The project will generate publications in the renowned international current journals and several PhD, master and bachelor theses.
