High-Energy-Density Laboratory Plasma Science
Funding Agency:
- Department of Energy
The DOE SC program in Fusion Energy Sciences (FES) and the NNSA Defense Program (DP) Office of Experimental Sciences jointly announce their interests in receiving applications for new and renewal awards for research in the SC-NNSA Joint Program in High-Energy-Density (HED) laboratory plasmas. All individual researchers or groups of researchers planning to submit applications for new or renewal funding in Fiscal Year 2023 should submit applications in response to this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). SC-NNSA Joint Program in High-Energy-Density (HED) laboratory plasmas The High-Energy-Density Laboratory Plasmas (HEDLP) joint program was established following the 2007 report of the Interagency Task Force on High Energy Density Physics (2007): “The Office of Science and the NNSA within DOE will establish a joint program in high energy density laboratory plasmas (HED-LP) responsible for stewarding fundamental HED-LP science within the Department of Energy”. Generally, HEDLP research is directed at exploring the behavior of matter at extreme conditions of temperature, density, and pressure, including laboratory astrophysics and planetary science, structure and dynamic of matter at the atomic scale, laser-plasma interactions and relativistic optics, magneto hydrodynamics (MHD) and magnetized plasmas, and plasma atomic physics and radiation transport. The specific areas of interest are: 1. HED Hydrodynamics 2. Radiation-Dominated Dynamics and Material Properties 3. Nonlinear Optics of Plasmas and Laser-Plasma Interactions 4. Relativistic HED Plasmas and Intense Beam Physics 5. Warm Dense Matter
