The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics awarded the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill a Project Grant totaling $105,409 under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to support the NSF 2026 Future of Nuclear Theory Project Scoping Workshop. The workshop, conducted at the Chapel Hill, NC location from June 1, 2026, through May 31, 2027, serves as a strategic convening forum for nuclear theory practitioners and researchers to assess recent scientific progress, identify current challenges in the field, and develop collaborative solutions. The primary deliverable is a facilitated workshop that brings together leading experts to discuss how emerging technologies—specifically Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Quantum Information Science (QIS)—can advance nuclear theory's capacity to interpret experimental data and provide predictive insights for experimental nuclear physics programs at world-leading facilities. The workshop outputs will establish a strategic roadmap for advancing U.S. nuclear physics and nuclear theory scientific programs by identifying pathways to overcome current obstacles through technological innovation. The award explicitly indicates no subawards are planned, meaning all services and workshop coordination will be delivered directly by UNC-CH. This initiative aligns with NSF's statutory mission to strengthen the Nation's scientific enterprise by supporting fundamental research and education that addresses critical scientific challenges and enhances the broader scientific community's capacity for groundbreaking discovery.Federal Grant Award Summary
