Opportunity Summary:

The FY2015 Research Opportunities in Accelerator Stewardship grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DE-FOA-0001142) was issued by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Science, specifically through the Office of High Energy Physics. It is a discretionary funding opportunity that supports science and technology research and development, with a focus on accelerator research and development stewardship. In practical terms, the program is aimed at advancing the underlying technologies, methods, and scientific capabilities associated with particle accelerators, which are core tools for high energy physics and many related fields.

This opportunity uses the grant mechanism as its funding instrument and falls under CFDA number 81.049 (Office of Science Financial Assistance Program). The announcement invites new grant applications to support research programs in accelerator R&D stewardship, meaning it is intended to fund forward-looking work that strengthens and sustains the nation’s accelerator R&D base. While the short description provided does not list specific technical subtopics, the framing indicates an emphasis on R&D activities that improve accelerator performance, reliability, efficiency, and future readiness, consistent with DOE High Energy Physics stewardship of accelerator science.

Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning it is broadly open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that would be provided in the full announcement text. The opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which generally lowers the barrier to applying and allows applicants to propose work based on technical merit and program alignment rather than an ability to provide institutional matching resources.

Key dates for the opportunity are as follows: it was posted and created on June 13, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 4, 2014. The archive date is December 13, 2014, indicating that this was a time-limited FY2015 solicitation and is no longer open for new submissions. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed program contact was Eric Colby, Program Specialist, reachable by phone at 301-903-5475 or by email at Eric.Colby@science.doe.gov.

Overall, this FOA represents DOE Office of Science support for accelerator R&D as a national capability area under High Energy Physics, using standard federal grant assistance and broad eligibility, with no cost-sharing requirement, and a defined application window in mid-2014 leading into FY2015 planning and awards.
