This $150,000 Project Grant awarded on August 1, 2024 by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics funds the research activities of Professor Christopher Carone at the College of William & Mary. The research will explore novel higher-derivative quantum field theories, new models of elementary fermion masses involving modular flavor symmetries, and constraints on gauge extensions of the Standard Model under the condition of asymptotic safety. Additionally, Professor Carone will follow up on his recent work to understand astrophysical consequences of regular black hole metrics. This research under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) Federal Grant Program aims to further scientific progress and understanding of particle physics and cosmology, supporting the training of doctoral students and outreach activities to high school teachers.
