Hot Compressed Atomic Nuclei (U.S.-Jordan Cooperative Research; Science in Developing Countries).

技术说明：这项美国-约旦合作研究项目涉及爱荷华州立大学和约旦安曼应用科学大学，将探索核状态方程。项目资金将使应用科学大学的马哈茂德·哈桑博士能够在爱荷华州立大学詹姆斯·法利博士的实验室里度过总共六个月的时间。他们的合作研究将研究极端压力和温度条件下的原子核。这项工作在重离子物理学和天体物理学中都有应用。该理论物理项目通过使美国和约旦的顶尖专家在共同感兴趣和能力强的领域结合互补的人才和集中研究资源，实现了推进科学知识的计划目标。

Technical Narrative: This U.S.-Jordan collaborative research project involving Iowa State University and Applied Science University, Amman, Jordan will explore the nuclear equation of state. Project funding will enable Dr. Mahmoud Hasan of Applied Science University to spend a total of six months in the laboratory of Dr. James Vary at Iowa State University. Their collaborative research will investigate atomic nuclei under extreme conditions of pressure and temperature. This work has applications in both heavy-ion physics and astrophysics. This project in theoretical physics fulfills the program objective of advancing scientific knowledge by enabling leading experts in the United States and Jordan to combine complementary talents and pool research resources in areas of strong mutual interest and competence.
