This award will support a two-day Virtual NSF Project Scoping Workshop on the topic of "Precise and Accurate Calculations of Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay". Theoretical nuclear physics input is critical to the interpretation of experimental results that could demonstrate that neutrinos are their own antiparticles. As such, theoretical nuclear physics will play an important role in understanding the excess of matter over antimatter in the universe, one of outstanding grand challenges in modern science. This Project Scoping Workshop will provide a forum for the community of practitioners in this field to take stock of recent scientific advancements, identify current challenges, discuss opportunities to overcome those challenges, and map a way forward for the success of the experimental Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay projects. This project advances the goals outlined out in the 2015 LONG RANGE PLAN for NUCLEAR SCIENCE regarding “the timely development and deployment of a U.S.-led ton-scale neutrinoless double beta decay experiment.”This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项将支持为期两天的虚拟NSF项目范围研讨会，主题为“精确和准确的无中微子双β衰变计算”。理论核物理输入对于解释实验结果至关重要，这些实验结果可以证明中微子是它们自己的反粒子。因此，理论核物理学将在理解宇宙中物质超过反物质方面发挥重要作用，这是现代科学的重大挑战之一。该项目范围研讨会将为该领域的从业者社区提供一个论坛，以评估最近的科学进展，确定当前的挑战，讨论克服这些挑战的机会，并为实验性无中微子双β衰变项目的成功绘制前进道路。该项目推进了2015年核科学长期计划中概述的目标，即“及时开发和部署美国-导致了吨级无中微子双β衰变实验。”该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
