This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics, CFDA 47.049 Mathematical and Physical Sciences, provides $299,690 from August 1, 2024 through July 31, 2027 to Texas A&M University for research to improve understanding of the properties of quark-gluon plasma, a state of matter created in nuclear collisions at high energies. The key products and services to be delivered include: Systematic improvements to the modeling of hadronization, the process by...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $300,000 Project Grant to Michigan State University to study the properties of quark-gluon plasma, a novel phase of matter that forms at extremely high temperatures or densities. The research, funded under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), will use lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) simulations to investigate how heavy quark bound states respond to the quark-gluon plasma medium and the behavior of the strong force at...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $690,000 supports research into quantum transport and hadronization in quark-gluon plasma at Texas A&M University from July 2022 through June 2025. Under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), Principal Investigator Dr. Smith and his team will investigate how the properties of the strongly-coupled quark-gluon plasma and its transition into hadrons emerge from quantum chromodynamics theory. They will employ quantum...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program will support research on the properties of quark-gluon plasma, an extremely high-temperature gas that existed in the early universe and can be briefly produced in laboratory particle collisions. The $240,000 award to the University of Virginia aims to study the theoretical foundations for probing the properties of quark-gluon plasma using measurements of energy...
This Project Grant award of $360,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research at George Washington University to study the properties of three-particle quantum systems using lattice QCD (Quantum Chromodynamics) methods. The project aims to improve the theoretical understanding of how strong nuclear forces bind nucleons together in atomic nuclei, by developing new three-body QCD...
This $600,000 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program. The award will support research led by the principal investigator (PI) at Rutgers, The State University to investigate the properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) - a unique state of matter predicted by quantum chromodynamics. The key research objectives are to: Measure jet observables in heavy-ion collisions at the Large Hadron...
This Project Grant award, totaling $200,000, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program. The award supports a postdoctoral research fellowship for Virginia Bailey at Georgia State University to study the quark-gluon plasma, a hot and dense nuclear matter, using jet probes from the newly constructed sPHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The research aims to enhance understanding of the...
This $299,997 Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, supports fundamental research on the structure of nucleons (protons and neutrons) at Stony Brook University. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award include: Computations of nucleon electromagnetic form factors over a wide range of high momentum to enable comparison with recent experimental data from the Jefferson Lab. This work...
This $239,996 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Physics, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), aims to advance theoretical and phenomenological studies of the three-dimensional momentum and spin structure of the nucleon in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The primary objectives are to discover the internal landscape of the nucleon, provide analysis and explanation of existing data, and make predictions for future measurements at...
This Project Grant award of $300,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program will fund research and education focused on the study of novel materials with strong interactions between particles. The research aims to develop new theoretical tools to better understand and predict the unusual behaviors of strongly interacting metals, which exhibit phenomena like high-temperature superconductivity that challenge current theories....
