This grant, offered by the Theoretical Elementary Particle Physics Program, supports research into fundamental particle interactions across various energy scales. It encompasses theoretical tools like String Theory, Quantum Field Theory, Lattice Field Theory, and Effective Field Theories. The program’s purpose is to formulate new theoretical, computational, and experimental research approaches, develop quantitative hypotheses, analyze their implications, and interpret experimental results. Supported research includes predictions for upcoming experiments (e.g., LHC), Supersymmetric Model building, Grand Unified Theories, and high precision QCD simulations. The grant also fosters interdisciplinary collaborations and provides infrastructure support through visitor programs, workshops, and research centers for scientists, graduate students, and postdocs.

Description: | The Elementary Particle Theory program encompasses different theoretical tools for understanding the interaction of elementary particles at different energy scales. These include String Theory, Quantum Field Theory, Lattice Field Theory, Effective Field Theories, and Phenomenology based on the above theoretical tools. The program supports both formal string theory as well as string-theory-inspired model building. However String Theory proposals which are primarily mathematical should consider applying to the Mathematical Physics program. Predictions for upcoming experiments at the LHC involve Supersymmetric Model building, Grand Unified Theories, Extra Dimensions, String Inspired phenomenology as well as high order calculations in the Standard Model (of strong weak and electromagnetic interactions) to sort out what new physics might be discovered at the next generation of accelerators and cosmic ray and neutrino detectors. High precision simulations of QCD processes using lattice gauge theory are also a crucial ingredient for understanding present and future experiments at various collider facilities. Certain aspects of formal string theory are supported in Mathematical Physics. Supported research includes contributions to broad theoretical advances as well as model building and applications to experimental programs at facilities such as RHIC and Jefferson Laboratory, and to astrophysical phenomena. This includes formulating new approaches for theoretical, computational, and experimental research that explore the fundamental laws of physics and the behavior of physical systems; formulating quantitative hypotheses; exploring and analyzing the implications of such hypotheses analytically and computationally; and, in some cases, interpreting the results of experiments. The effort also includes a considerable number of interdisciplinary grants. In addition, the program supports infrastructure activities such as short- and long-term visitor programs, workshops, and research centers involving the participation of external scientists from universities, national laboratories, and industry, as well as graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. |
