About this opportunity
Synopsis The Elementary Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology Theory program supports theoretical research in two closely related areas. The first area encompasses different theoretical tools for understanding the properties and interactions of elementary particles at energy scales stretching from the Standard Model to the Planck scale. This includes new discovery strategies and methods of data analysis relevant for collider physics as well as all aspects of Standard Model phenomenology, including studies of the strong and electroweak interactions, neutrino physics, and flavor physics. This program area also encompasses speculative theories of physics beyond the Standard Model, including supersymmetry, extra space-time dimensions, unification, and string theory/M-theory. The second ...
