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 $270,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program. The grant supports the development of theoretical models and simulations to improve understanding of the formation and dynamical properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), an extreme state of matter created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. Specifically, the project aims to enhance the existing ZPC parton cascade model by...
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...
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 $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...

Under this award, Texas A & M University will conduct research and experiments to further understanding of major problems in nuclear physics and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise in this field. The university will...
This Project Grant award of $310,000.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences Program (CFDA 47.049) supports theoretical research to advance the understanding of hadron structure and properties within the framework of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The research, conducted by the University of Connecticut, aims to establish the foundations for describing the internal dynamics of quarks within hadrons, such as protons and neutrons. The outcomes will provide...
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...
