For the second time, the Central Library of the Research Centre Jülich was transformed into the centre of the energy transition. Under the title „FORSCHEN:GESELLSCHAFT:ZUKUNFT“ top-class scientists and representatives from industry and associations reported on the status of energy transformation. The focus was on hydrogen as an important component of sector coupling.
On April 22, 2018, Dr. Andreas Lintermann from the SimLab “Highly Scalable Fluids & Solids Engineering”, JARA-HPC, participated in the first “World Congress of the Society of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) of the Nose & Airway” (SCONA 2018), London, UK.
The German Research Foundation (DFG) has approved 15 proposals for new Research Training Groups. Prof. Marc Spehr was also successful with his project. The JARA-BRAIN scientist received a funding commitment for the Research Training Group "MultiSenses-MultiScales: Novel approaches to decipher neural processing in multisensory integration".
The Alpha-Magnet-Spectrometer (AMS) installed on the International Space Station requires a new cooling system. Therefore scientists of the I. Physics Institute of the RWTH, under the direction of JARA-FAME member Prof. Stefan Schael, are working on the development of a new system, which will be installed and put into operation at the beginning of 2019 at the AMS experiment.

The meteorite Bishunpur, which fell to Earth in 1895 in the Indian Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, could shed light on the magnetism at the beginning of the universe. In order to unravel the secrets of the meteorite, scientists at Research Centre Jülich, together with experts from England and Norway, have investigated the material using electron holography.
