The High Energy Physics (HEP) program in the Office of Science (SC), U. S. Department of Energy (DOE), hereby announces its interest in receiving interdisciplinary applications for open scientific research on Quantum Information Science (QIS) Enabled Discovery (QuantISED), for public benefit within the
Congressionally-authorized mission space of HEP to understand how the universe works at its most fundamental level [1].
The QIS thrust within HEP has been developed over the last few years [2-4] and is aligned with a broader SC initiative in QIS and coordinated with various national and interagency programs [5] in QIS, including quantum computing and QIS technology.
Transcending the traditional frontiers and thrusts of the HEP program, the QIS thrust exploits the interdisciplinary nature of QIS and associated partnerships for exploratory, early stage research for high impact discovery along HEP science drivers, foundational QIS, and the national QIS enterprise.
