The National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities awarded the University of California, Santa Barbara $900,000 on August 1, 2026, to acquire a high-performance computing cluster for scientific research and education under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083). UCSB will purchase and deploy the cluster at its Santa Barbara campus for use across more than twenty departments and seven research institutes. Approximately 80 percent of the cluster's hundreds of users are undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral students. The facility supports research spanning astrophysics, ecology, molecular biology, materials science, quantum computing, climate modeling, and genomic analysis. Specific research applications include field-theoretic simulations of block copolymers and polyelectrolyte complexes; analysis of deep-sea organisms, anaerobic gut microbes, and filamentous fungi; electronic structure calculations for quantum defects with applications to quantum sensing and secure communication; atmospheric models for climate forecasting and crop projections; and radiation magnetohydrodynamical simulations of supermassive black hole accretion disks. The cluster also supports computational laboratory courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels. Performance of performance runs through July 31, 2029, with work performed in Santa Barbara, California.
