This final technical report summarizes the key research outcomes achieved by the University of California at Santa Barbara Team of the “Data-Driven Decision Control for Complex Systems (DnC2S)” project under award number DE-SC0021321.
This Final Technical Report covers the years of activity for the Grant DE-SC0021080. It reflects the efforts of Alice Mignerey, the PI, Timothy Koeth, the co-PI, graduate students Eric Adams and Samuel Lascio, and undergraduates Alyssa Marinelli and Max Bernard. Results from three separate aspects of the project are presented: 1) understanding the radiation damage of the positive and negative sides of the Spectator Reaction Plane detector (SRPD) for data from the 2018 PbPb run at the CERN LHC. 2) Results of the directed flow in PbPb collisions at $\sqrt{SNN}$ = 5.02 TeV. 3) Activation studies of the sectors of the positive side of the SRPD and radiation damage studies on fused quartz using the Maryland 4-MeV electron accelerator. The most significant result is that the reaction plane derived directed flow for both participant and spectator reaction planes is many times larger than that obtained by ALICE.

Final Technical Report for Project "Symmetry in Correlated Quantum Matter"
This final technical report describes the goals, activities, outcomes, and broader impacts of the GROWTH-MSI program, supported through the DOE RENEW Initiative in High Energy Physics. The program established a 1.5-year traineeship for undergraduate students from six Northern California Minority Serving Institutions, connected students with DOE laboratory research mentors, provided particle physics coursework and professional development, and advanced HEP research infrastructure at CSU Stanislaus and Sonoma State University.
In the final year of the project, we have carried out studies on ferroelectric molecular thin film growth and characterization of structural and electrical properties. In addition, we studied the effect of ferroelectric interface on the spin transport properties and the interface spin accumulation of heavy metal like Pt.
This is the final technical report for a DOE grant investigating quantum black holes and wormholes
Final Scientific and Technical Report for the DOE AI grant funded under title "AI for a more precise future of the top quark"
This final technical report summarizes the work accomplished in this DOE Early Career Research Program project that has established moiré superlattice materials and two-dimensional (2D) heterostructures as a highly tunable platform for controlling heterogeneous charge transfer (ET) kinetics at solid-liquid interfaces. By precisely engineering van der Waals heterostructures of atomically thin 2D materials, particularly bilayer and trilayer graphene with controlled twist angles, this project demonstrated systematic control of interfacial charge transfer rates spanning three orders of magnitude. This research addresses fundamental questions about how electronic structure, charge localization, and atomic layer-dependent properties govern charge transfer at electrochemical interfaces, with broad implications for energy conversion, electrocatalysis, and next-generation electrochemical devices.
Final Technical Report
This is the final report for the referenced TCF award which ran from Oct. 2019 through Jan. 2024 in conjunction with the industry partner Swift Solar. The long duration of the program was due to several factors including the pandemic and a technical work stoppage due to changes in the scope. Additionally, Swift’s business focus shifted during the course of the program. As a result of these factors, this program underwent two distinct modifications that dramatically changed the work scope. The following report is organized into three separate sections, each of which addresses a distinct work scope. Those scope changes, what necessitated them, and any new tasks/milestones are given, briefly, at the top of each section. The work performed was research on the hybrid halide perovskites (HHP), both the absorber material itself as well as other material layers that are required in a full device stack. At the start of the period of performance, there were two distinct challenges that we sought to address: (1) a wide band gap absorber (>1.6 eV), and (2) a recombination layer for tandem devices that provided good sequestration of the individual cell absorber materials in their respective device layers. NREL had previously published, and patented, advancements in both of these areas and they were the focus of much of the work throughout the program.
This final technical report summarizes the development of structure wakefield accelerator (SWFA) technology to enable high-gradient, efficient particle acceleration.
Final Technical Report for "Understanding the natural sources of aerosols and their impacts on cloud formation and climate across hemispheres"
This final technical report summarizes research, case studies, and resources developed from 2020–2025 on prefabricated construction and remote virtual inspections. It documents key findings on benefits, challenges, and best practices, highlights examples from multiple states, and provides guidance to support wider adoption of these innovations in the construction sector.
The research grant addressed in this final report began its most recent 3-year segment June 1, 2022 and terminated May 31, 2025. The work funded by the grant supported our group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in its collaboration on the nEDM@SNS (SNS refers to the Spallation Neutron Source) project at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). This project had as its goal the measurement of a non-zero value of the electric dipole moment of the neutron (nEDM). If indeed the neutron has a non-zero electric dipole moment, it will tell us very important information about the Standard Model of Nuclear and Particle Physics. The Standard Model is remarkably successful in describing much of the world we live in, but we know it is not complete. A non-zero nEDM would indicate the existence of strong CP violation, which would be a major addition to the Standard Model.
