The National Science Foundation Division of Physics awarded Arizona State University $280,000 in Project Grant funding on August 1, 2026, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to conduct theoretical research in neutrino phenomenology and multimessenger astrophysics through July 31, 2028. The project develops theoretical frameworks to interpret observations of neutrinos, gravitational waves, and electromagnetic radiation from extreme cosmic environments including stellar explosions, black hole formation, and ultra-high-energy particle production. Research combines theoretical modeling, statistical analysis, observational data, and numerical simulations across three interconnected topics: the diffuse supernova neutrino background using artificial-intelligence-assisted methods to organize large collections of theoretical predictions; testing the role of neutrinos in stellar evolution to reveal possible neutrino properties beyond current particle physics theory; and investigating high-energy neutrinos from black-hole-powered flares and their connection to ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. The project also supports the training of students and early-career researchers in interdisciplinary science combining astrophysics, particle and nuclear physics, and advanced computational methods. Work is performed in Tempe, Arizona. Arizona State University's Office of Research and Sponsored Projects Administration holds the award as the administrative entity for the university.
