- This $239,996 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Physics, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), aims to advance theoretical and phenomenological studies of the three-dimensional momentum and spin structure of the nucleon in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The primary objectives are to discover the internal landscape of the nucleon, provide analysis and explanation of existing data, and make predictions for future measurements at...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.049 - Mathematical and Physical Sciences) provides $100,000 to George Washington University to conduct theoretical studies of electromagnetic radiation effects during electron-nucleus collisions. The research aims to develop new methodologies for relating the energy and momenta of collision products to the intrinsic properties of fundamental particles like quarks and hadrons. This will provide scientific guidance for future...
- This federal Project Grant award of $499,309.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports research to advance the understanding of the internal structure of protons and neutrons, collectively known as nucleons. The research aims to create a three-dimensional map of how quarks and gluons, the fundamental constituents of matter, move and interact inside nucleons. The project will analyze data from high-precision...

Hall at the University of California, Berkeley. The research aims to advance fundamental understanding of the laws of physics, with a focus on discoveries enabled by the Large Hadron Collider in Europe, underground experiments in South Dakota, and other global facilities....
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant awarded to the New York Institute of Technology (NYIT) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $135,000 in funding from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2026 for research activities led by Professor Sophia Domokos. The research aims to use the phenomenon of holographic duality to better understand and categorize structures formed by the strong interactions between elementary particles, such as protons and...
- The federal Project Grant award of $375,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences Program (CFDA 47.049) aims to study the 3D structure of atomic nuclei and their constituents, protons and neutrons, to better understand the strong nuclear force. The program will use world-leading electron-scattering facilities at Jefferson Lab in Virginia to conduct experimental studies on the distribution of quarks and gluons within nucleons and nuclei. The key products...
- 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...
- 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...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $565,000 Project Grant to the Catholic University of America (CUA) to conduct research advancing the understanding of the quark-gluon structure of the fundamental building blocks of the atomic nucleus - protons, neutrons, pions, and kaons. The award, funded through NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), has two primary goals: 1) to deepen the Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) understanding of pions and kaons, and 2) to provide...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, titled "BORN-OPPENHEIMER RENORMALIZATION GROUP: BRIDGING LOW AND INTERMEDIATE X PHYSICS IN THE SATURATION DOMAIN. ENTANGLEMENT AND HIGH ENERGY HADRONIC REACTIONS - THE ELECTRON ION COLLIDER (EIC), THE NEXT MAJOR NUCLEAR PHYSICS FACILITY", is awarded under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program. The $270,000 award, with a performance period from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2028, will support the principal investigator and their collaborators in developing a unified theoretical framework to study the transition between the low-energy and intermediate-energy regimes of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). This research aims to help identify experimental signatures of parton saturation, a qualitatively new regime of QCD, which will be explored at the upcoming Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) facility. The work will focus on understanding the relation between the entanglement properties of hadronic wave functions and the final states of high-energy collisions, particularly the collective behavior of soft (classical) and semi-hard (quantum) modes.
