Insights gained will provide...
- This $270,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research by the University of California, Berkeley to study the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe. The principal investigator will investigate the role of theories beyond the Standard Model of particle physics in explaining this asymmetry by calculating the electric dipole moments of protons and neutrons. The project will use a new method...
- The National Science Foundation awarded $600,000 under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049) to Carnegie Mellon University from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2025. The award will support research using large-scale computing resources to study multi-hadron interactions through lattice quantum chromodynamics simulations with the stochastic laph method. Key products include computations of nucleon-pion, nucleon-nucleon, and nucleon-hyperon scattering phase shifts...
- 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 $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 will advance understanding of how quark-gluon interactions change at short distances within nucleons. Examination of quantum entanglement of gauge degrees of freedom within the color flux tube that binds a quark and antiquark, which is a basic ground state in quantum chromodynamics. Studies of the impact of charge-parity-violating interactions on the neutron electric dipole moment, which could provide insights into new particles and fields beyond the standard model of particle physics. This research aims to enhance the fundamental scientific understanding of the internal organization and structure of nuclear matter, bridging the gap between hadron models and perturbative quantum chromodynamics.
