Opportunity Summary:
The Department of Energy (DOE), through the Office of Science (SC) and its Office of Nuclear Physics (NP), issued a discretionary grant opportunity focused on research and development work that advances accelerator technology for next generation nuclear physics accelerator facilities. In practical terms, the program is meant to support R&D efforts that strengthen the underlying accelerator science and engineering needed for future nuclear physics user facilities, including the kinds of innovations that can improve beam performance, reliability, efficiency, and overall capability for cutting-edge nuclear physics experiments.
This opportunity is identified as "Research and Development for Next Generation Nuclear Physics Accelerator Facilities" under Funding Opportunity Number DE-FOA-0001556, listed in CFDA 81.049, and categorized under Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The funding instrument is a grant, and the opportunity is described as discretionary, meaning awards are competitively selected based on the merits and alignment of proposed work with the program objectives.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, indicating that applications were open to a broad range of entity types, with the caveat that applicants still needed to follow any eligibility clarifications provided in the full announcement text. The administering agency is shown as PAMS-SC (DOE Office of Science Portfolio Analysis and Management System). The announcement was created and posted on March 3, 2016, with an application deadline of May 2, 2016 (both the original and current closing dates are the same, suggesting no deadline extension). The opportunity anticipated making about 10 awards, with an award ceiling of $1,870,000, which signals that individual project budgets could be substantial but capped at that maximum level.
Overall, the grant was designed to build technical momentum toward the accelerator systems that will underpin future U.S. nuclear physics facilities, by funding targeted R&D projects rather than routine operations or facility construction.
