The DOE SC program in High Energy Physics (HEP) hereby announces its interest in new and renewal grant applications for support of research programs in high energy physics.
Donor Name: Office of Science
State: All States
County: All Counties
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 12/21/2022
Size of the Grant: $20,000,000
Grant Duration: 3 years
Details:
The mission of the HEP program is to understand how the universe works at its most fundamental level, which is done by discovering the elementary constituents of matter and energy, probing the interactions between them, and exploring the basic nature of space and time.
- The HEP program focuses on three (3) experimental scientific frontiers: The Energy Frontier – where powerful accelerators are used to create new particles, reveal their interactions, and investigate fundamental forces using highly sensitive experimental detectors;
- The Intensity Frontier – where intense particle beams and highly sensitive detectors are used to pursue alternate pathways to investigate fundamental forces and particle interactions by studying events that occur rarely in nature, and to provide precision measurements of these phenomena; and
- The Cosmic Frontier – where data from the universe are used to probe fundamental physics questions and offer new insight about the nature of dark matter, cosmic acceleration in the forms of dark energy and inflation in the early universe, neutrino properties, and other phenomena.
Funding Information
- Award Ceiling: $20,000,000
- Award Floor: $20,000
- DOE anticipates making awards with an average period of three years as befitting the project with some awards exceeding the average and other awards less than the average, depending on the number of meritorious applications, the results of merit review, the program policy factors, and the availability of appropriated funds.
Eligibility Criteria
All types of domestic applicants are eligible to apply, except nonprofit organizations described in section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that engaged in lobbying activities after December 31, 1995.
