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

技术描述：这项由爱荷华州立大学和位于约旦安曼的应用科学大学参与的美国-约旦合作研究项目将探索核物态方程。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·瓦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。这个理论物理项目通过使美国和约旦的顶尖专家能够将互补的人才结合在一起，并在相互感兴趣和能力很强的领域汇集研究资源，从而实现了促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.
