- This $500,000 federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), supports the participation of U.S. scientists in the LHCB experiment at CERN. The grant funds facility operations, maintenance, and computing support to enable research that explores "beyond the Standard Model physics" and aims to identify new phenomena that could reveal the existence of new particles or forces. The award...
- This $508,212 five-year Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports the creation of an ambitious simulation suite that will uniformly cover an unprecedented range of dark matter and gravity models. The goal is to enable detailed comparisons between these simulations and observational survey data, potentially ruling out certain models of dark matter and gravity. The simulations will be publicly available to enable...
- This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program provides $405,000 to Sam Houston State University to support research into Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT), collider, neutrino, axion, and dark matter phenomenology from September 2021 through August 2024. The NSF Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) aims to promote progress in the mathematical and physical sciences to strengthen the Nation's...
- This federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $150,000 in funding to Professor Christopher Carone at the College of William & Mary to conduct research on topics in physics beyond the Standard Model.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $959,999 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program to the University of Maryland, College Park. The grant, awarded from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, will fund the research activities of Professors Zackaria Chacko, Anson Hook, and Raman Sundrum. The principal investigators will develop and study new theories that extend the standard model of particle physics and cosmology, with three primary goals: 1) Provide theoretical templates to guide experimental particle physics research, including at facilities like the CERN Large Hadron Collider; 2) Explore new fundamental principles at the intersection of quantum mechanics, relativity, and gravitation; and 3) Promote teaching, training, and learning among students and postdoctoral researchers, and share the research findings with the broader community.
