This Project Grant award of $1,500,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports fundamental research on the strong subatomic force and the structure of matter. The award funds research activities led by the University of South Carolina (USC) that aim to advance the understanding of nuclear physics. Key objectives include investigating the emergence of bound three-quark systems, the properties of dense nuclear matter,...
This $299,997 Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, supports fundamental research on the structure of nucleons (protons and neutrons) at Stony Brook University. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award include: Computations of nucleon electromagnetic form factors over a wide range of high momentum to enable comparison with recent experimental data from the Jefferson Lab. This work...
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...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $570,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences grant program (CFDA 47.049) to Christopher Newport University (CNU) to support research on the internal structure of protons and neutrons. The research group at CNU will conduct experiments at the Jefferson Laboratory, involving the scattering of polarized electrons from protons and neutrons to measure their electric and magnetic properties. This research aims to further the...
This $1,050,000 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports the Rutgers University Intermediate Energy Nuclear Physics Group's research into the structure of the nucleon. Specifically, the funding enables the group to continue experimental nuclear physics research through the MUSE measurement of scattering cross sections of positively and negatively charged electrons and muons from a liquid hydrogen target at the Paul...
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 $100,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research to conduct a precise test of the Standard Model of particle physics. The project will measure the weak charge of the electron at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility in Virginia, which could reveal evidence of new physics beyond the Standard Model. Key activities funded include construction and installation of beam monitoring...
This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Physics, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049), supports a research project titled "Puzzling Out the Proton with Precision Scattering Experiments" at Stony Brook University. The $250,000 award, effective from August 1, 2024 to July 31, 2027, aims to resolve the "proton radius puzzle" by conducting precise muon-proton scattering experiments at the Paul...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics awarded a $230,000 Project Grant to Duquesne University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to investigate the internal structure of the proton using electron beam experiments.
