The University of Tennessee, Knoxville received a $600,000 Project Grant award from the Office of the Secretary of Defense to conduct research on "ELASTO X-RAY SCATTERING FOR PROBING NOVEL MAGNETIC SWITCHING" under the Basic Scientific Research program (CFDA 12.431). The 3-year project, which began on August 15, 2023 and will be completed by August 14, 2026, aims to advance the understanding of novel magnetic switching mechanisms through the use of elastic x-ray scattering techniques. The University of Tennessee has a strong track record of supporting the Department of Defense through prime federal contracts and subcontracts in areas like financial analysis, quantum materials research, and nuclear security operations. This grant award will leverage the university's multidisciplinary expertise in physics, engineering, and materials science to drive progress in the fundamental understanding of magnetic phenomena, which could lead to improved Army programs or operations.
