National Spherical Torus Experiment - Innovative Measurements of Spherical Torus Plasmas: The Office of Fusion Energy Sciences (OFES) of theOffice of Science (SC), U.S.Department of Energy (DOE) hereby announces its interest in receiving grantapplications for collaborative research involving innovative diagnostics ontheNational Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) at Princeton Plasma PhysicsLaboratory. The NSTX program addresses two of the long term goals of OFES:Configuration Optimization and developing a Predictive Capability forBurningPlasmas. Collaborative research involving innovative diagnostics mustsupportthe NSTX program goals by making important measurements related to plasmaprofile evolution, plasma control and stability, plasma turbulence andtransport, or edge plasma characteristics. To be considered for funding,applicants must have discussed their proposed research with the NSTXNationalResearch Program Leaders and must include a Record of Discussion indicatingthebenefits of their proposed research to the planned NSTX research programandthe interface support required by the proposed collaborative work.Applications to renew on-going NSTX collaborative research must include alistof project goals from the previous statement of work and a summary of theactual accomplishments. Applications focusing primarily on design ofpotentialdiagnostics for NSTX or on planning/analysis of experiments on NSTX willnot beconsidered under this notice.The full text of this Notice is available athttp://www.science.doe.gov/grants/FAPN05-20.htmlATTENTION: Applicants must use the forms in Grants.gov, do not use theformslisted below.
