Award Details: Old Dominion University Research Foundation received a $270,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The award was obligated on August 1, 2026, with a completion date of July 31, 2029. Products and Services: This three-year research project delivers theoretical and computational advances in hadron spectroscopy through the integration of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD). The primary deliverable is a novel framework employing neural network architectures constrained by dispersion relations to extract resonance properties from experimental data and first-principles calculations. The research focuses on light-meson spectroscopy, with particular emphasis on determining pole properties of key resonances including the sigma/f0(500), rho(770), and f0(980) mesons. Additionally, the project provides workforce development through training for graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in theoretical physics, high-performance computing, statistics, and big data analysis. The work strengthens theoretical interpretation of current and future experiments conducted at facilities such as Jefferson Lab while advancing understanding of how quantum chromodynamics produces the observed spectrum of hadrons—a central problem in nuclear physics.Federal Grant Award Summary
