  1. General Assembly Tuesday 25 September 2012 - Madrid EC Grant agreement n° 228319

  2. Project overview Tuesday 25 September 2012 – Madrid Michel Blanc, IRAP-CNRS, Toulouse EC Grant agreement n° 228319

  3. Concept • Europlanet RI is a full « Infrastructure network » supporting and enhancing our use of space missions, earth-based telescopes, simulation and data analysis tools, lab and field site facilities • The main objective is to provideservices and tools to the community! • Access to lab facilities, field sites, extreterrestrial matter samples repositories • Access to all information sources via a web interface (IDIS) to evolve into a « Virtual Planetary Observatory » • Done by a combination of 3 types of activities • Networking activities (science communication activities within the lab network and with the outside world) • Trans National Access (TNA) and Service Activities (SA) • Joint Research Activities (JRA):research and development activities aiming at IMPROVING the use and scientific return of our Research infrastructures in planetary sciences

  4. Key figures • 4 year project • EU funding: € 6 000 000 • 27 consortium members • 47 laboratories • 231 persons • 16 countries • Many more associate contributors (61 institutes) and users • A service to the European planetary science community, and beyond!

  7. Presentation of work by Activity Tuesday 25 September 2012 – Madrid Philippe Louarn, IRAP-CNRS, Toulouse EC Grant agreement n° 228319

  8. 4 years of activity… from ~250 persons, in ~50 labs, funded by ~30 institutes/agencies, in ~16 countries ! Europlanet FP7 Research Infrastructure • Service Activities • Integrated and Distributed Information Service (IDIS) • Data archiving and analysistools • JRA3: Modelling and data analysis tools • JRA4: towards virtual observatory in planetary sciences Networking Workshop Conference(EPSC) Outreach Research activity (JRA1) Development for SupportingPlanetary Missions.Link with amateurs • Trans National Access • Pan-european access to national facilities/labs. • TNA1 Planetary Field Analogues • TNA2 Planetary Simulation Facilities • TNA3Planetary Sample Analysis • JRA2: Characterization of new field analogues

  9. NETWORKING • More than 30 workshops/conferences (H.Rucker, A.M.Arri, S.Miller, M.Grande, R.Srama, K.Szego, N.krupp…) 4 EPSC (>4000 attendants ) ; 4 ISSI workshops/Forum (andbooks!) , Technology/Industryworkshops, 2) AmbitiousnewapproachofOutreach in Europe (T. Fouchet, J.P.Lebreton, A.Heward, E. Chatzichristou) 15 national nodes, large list of experts who are able to comment on ‘planetary stories’, in the various european languages… Several communication ‘training’ Workshops Annual ‘outreach’ price. 3) Links with the amateur community (W. Thuillot, J.Oberst)- Meteor observing campaigns involving students and amateur astronomers, - SPOSH camera : meteoroid impact flash observations on Moon.

  10. TRANS NATIONAL ACCESS • Goal: provide access to a comprehensive set of laboratory facilities and field sites tailored to the needs of planetary research • TNA1:Planetary Field Analogues to perform research for space missions under realistic planetary conditions • TNA2Planetary Simulation Facilities providing access to laboratory facilities that simulate conditions in planetary atmospheres and surfaces • TNA3Planetary Sample Analysis Planetary Sample Analysis to analyze meteoritic and sample returns with specific isotopic analysis • 2009 -2012 TNA MORE than 80 VISITS SUPPORTED (N.Mason, F.Gomez, G.Davies, C.Cloquet)

  11. TNA1 F.Gomez , O.Roste (IKI) Six well characterized terrestrial natural field sites • Analoguesofsurfaceof Mars, Europa, Titan • Desert, permafrost, acidic environment,hydrothermal sources • Morocco, Tunisia, Svalbard, Spain, Kamchatka, Popigai Crater in Siberia • LIFE IN EXTREME CONDITIONSLearning more about the survival strategies that life adopts in extreme environments Rio Tinto, Spain Ny Alesund Spitzberg Ibn Battuta Centre Morocco Kamchatka, Russia 11

  12. Highlightfrom TNA2 • Laboratory studies • Emissivity Infrared emissivity spectra of mineral mixtures explored at different temperatures to compare with observations of the Martian moon, Phobos. • The results are providing new insights into the mineralogy of this moon which has been proposed as the first candidate for extra terrestrial mining !

  13. Highlightfrom TNA3 • Title : Water in nominally anhydrous chondrites • 4 days in Nancy • Ion Probe Cameca 1280 Do CK and CV chondrites have a closely related origin? d and mineralogy similar => Yes but redox conditions ≠ and fluids into CV not CK => No. Permission C. Martin CK oxidized CV reduced CV Data actually in treatment, publication in preparation. Laser ablation spot Ion probe spot

  14. IDIS Service Activity Goals • IDIS Service Activity is aimed at providing: • easy access to data produced in the different fields of planetary research: space missions, ground based telescopes, laboratory and field facilities, sample collections, and modelling results • tools to visualize, analyze, manipulate and interpret all types of observational, computational, and laboratory data • M.T.Capria, G. Chanteur, • many groups: VO paris, CDPP Toulouse, DLR, TechnicalNodeW.Schmitt…. Services are progressively implemented, and a prototype of a restricted Planetary VO is already available.

  15. Highlightfrom Plasma Node(C. Jacquey, V.Génot, N.André, B.Cecconi)

  16. Surface Node/JRA1Planetary Dynamics, Geodesy, Cartography(W. Thuillot, J.Oberst) • JRA-1 have developed various planetary map products for delivery to SA-IDIS: • Topographic models from HRSC on Mars Express, notably for the MSL landing site • Maps of Saturn satellites / Cassini data • Phobos shape models and maps • Mercury terrain models from Mariner-10 and MESSENGER data • Have developed various planetary and spacecraft ephemerides; have implemented client/server architecture for data access Lunar Orientale Basin / Scholten et al., 2012

  17. Highlightfrom Small Bodies and DustNode(Rosetta…) • Comet emission lines service The service allows the user, by means of a simple query interface, to visualize a table of peak wavelength, blending details, species (when identified), transition, (when identified), intensity (in arbitrary units, when measured), equivalent width (when measured) and distance of observation of the whole set of 33183 emission lines collected from four catalogs. All of these catalogs have been derived from spectra obtained with Echellespectrography. • Cosmic dust catalog service The NASA team at the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center has produced diverse catalogs of the properties of dust grains collected in the atmosphere. This web based interactive data service allows an easy retrieval and analysis of cosmic dust repositories. Our tool allows to search dust particles using several criteria: shape, size interval,luster, transparency or curator classification. For each particle it is possible to show the SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy) image, the EDS (X-ray Energy-Dispersive Spectrometry) spectra and other descriptive data.. • Emission lines grouping Within the starting catalogs, many lines are not identified. We established a statistical method to recognize groups of unidentified lines. Every group contains 2 to 6 lines that are likely to be the same transition observed in different comets. The same work has been done for identified lines, with the difference that grouping of identified lines is precise, not statistical.

  18. EuropeanModelling and Data AnalysisFacility(M.Khodachenko, S.Miller)http://europlanet-jra3.oeaw.ac.at Interactive Catalogue of Planetary Models and Data Analysis Tools • 30 planetary models • 16data analysis tools • Search navigation • Key words (topic) • Resource type • The Catalogue enables a user • free registration • advertising of own modelling& data analysis facilities • Search for needed modelling& analysis resources • Request of modelling/ analysis service http://europlanet-jra3.oeaw.ac.at/catalogue/

  19. To Conclude… We had very ambitious goals in 2009… -> 4 years later, the contract is close to completion. • We propose an exciting workshop/conference agenda • We develop an amazing set of outreach initiatives • We run a very original Field analog exploration, • We manage a successful TNA program with world level facilities • We made huge progresses towards planetary VO with impressive technical/scientific developments…. We are now far above fundation… The community has to learn how to use our tools and services and… improve, refine, complete The best for the future
