This Project Grant award of $999,786.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, awarded on September 1, 2025, supports the development of a comprehensive software framework called C-SCAPE. C-SCAPE is being created by a multi-disciplinary team at Texas A&M University to bridge theory and experimental data in the study of the strong nuclear force at particle collider facilities worldwide, such as the Large Hadron Collider and the planned Electron Ion Collider. The framework will utilize advanced statistical methods and computational simulations to extract fundamental properties of quantum chromodynamics from the experimental data. This project aims to expand the scope of previous task-based frameworks to support the increasing complexity of theoretical calculations required to connect to the experimental results, while also providing training for a new generation of scientists in computational, statistical, and physics methods.
