The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $753,918 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) on September 1, 2025. The grant will fund research to investigate new states of quantum matter using ultracold atoms, with the goal of enhancing understanding of collective phenomena and states of matter. Key activities include studying the thermodynamics of quantum gases composed of bosons (sodium) and fermions (lithium-6), which can mimic behavior seen in high-temperature superconductors and neutron stars. The research aims to find evidence of a state that is both a superfluid and a solid, providing fundamental insights. The work will also train graduate and undergraduate students across relevant technical disciplines. The project is scheduled for completion by August 31, 2028.
