The primary goal is to achieve a better understanding of the nature of matter governed by strong force interactions, which will provide insights into the early...
- This $399,968 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research into the nature of quark-gluon plasma, a state of matter that existed in the early universe. The principal investigator and her team at Lehigh University will study the properties of this plasma by analyzing the behavior of high-energy particle jets that pass through it. The research aims to advance the field's understanding of quantum...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $690,000 supports research into quantum transport and hadronization in quark-gluon plasma at Texas A&M University from July 2022 through June 2025. Under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), Principal Investigator Dr. Smith and his team will investigate how the properties of the strongly-coupled quark-gluon plasma and its transition into hadrons emerge from quantum chromodynamics theory. They will employ quantum...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program will support research on the properties of quark-gluon plasma, an extremely high-temperature gas that existed in the early universe and can be briefly produced in laboratory particle collisions. The $240,000 award to the University of Virginia aims to study the theoretical foundations for probing the properties of quark-gluon plasma using measurements of energy...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program provides $300,000.00 in funding to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to investigate how quarks and gluons, the fundamental building blocks of matter, combine to form protons and other hadrons. The research project combines advanced theoretical approaches with modern machine learning tools to extract detailed physical information from high-energy particle...
- The National Science Foundation Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences awarded a $300,000 Project Grant to support research titled "The Nature of Strongly-Interacting Matter Across the QCD Phase Diagram." The grant period runs from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. Under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the grantee will conduct research to increase understanding of major problems in the mathematical and physical sciences, such as...
- 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...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $300,000 from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028 to the University of Houston System to conduct research on hot and dense strongly interacting matter and the quark-gluon plasma. The project aims to improve understanding of the QCD phase transition, equation of state, and jet behavior in extreme conditions through first-principle lattice simulations and phenomenological approaches. The research will build a bridge between theory and experiment, as well as connect to the astrophysics community by providing observables for constraining high-density matter models. The project will also contribute to training the next generation of students in the theory of fundamental interactions.
