This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $452,953 to the University of Massachusetts Boston (UMass Boston) to conduct research on non-equilibrium and time-dependent phenomena in strongly correlated Fermi systems. The research aims to develop quantitative frameworks and computational tools to predict the dynamic behavior of these quantum systems, which is critical for advancing quantum technologies. The project will investigate Fermi gas dynamics in the semi-classical and quantum-degenerate regimes using simulations of the Boltzmann equation and diagrammatic Monte Carlo techniques. This integrated approach of analytical insight and numerically exact methods is expected to yield quantitative predictions that can be directly compared to experiments, contributing to a deeper understanding of quantum matter. The award also includes educational and outreach initiatives to promote scientific literacy, computational, and mathematical training for students in STEM fields. The research will be conducted at UMass Boston over a 5-year period from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2030.
