Additional Information on Eligibility: The objective of this NLUF announcement is to make research grants or cooperative agreements available, on a competitive basis, to Principal Investigators (PIs) who are members of the teaching/research faculty of a U.S. university or academic institution or employees of U.S.-based companies, for experimental use of the unique resources of the OMEGA Laser Facility at UR/LLE, through the Joint Program in High Energy Density Laboratory Plasmas (JPHEDLP) sponsored by the Office of Fusion Energy Sciences (OFES) in the Office of Science and NNSA, both in the DOE. Adjunct professors, visiting professors, and post-doctoral fellows are ineligible to be Principal Investigators. Non-U.S. citizens employed at U.S. University or academic institutions or U.S. based companies may act as Principal Investigators, while Investigators from foreign university or academic institutions or foreign-based companies, irrespective of citizenship, may not. The latter may receive funding under a Sub-award. NNSA must be notified of any foreign nationals supported by the funded work, and there may be some restrictions on their participation at certain facilities and conferences. Investigators from the five principal laboratories participating in the ICF program (LLNL, LANL, SNL, NRL, and UR/LLE) are precluded from applying for NLUF grants and having their scientists being the principal investigator (PI) on the proposed grants. Qualified applicants may, where desired and appropriate, collaborate with or otherwise take advantage of the intellectual and physical assets of these five principal laboratories. Any NLUF resources that might flow down from grant awardees to these laboratories should be limited to incidental support. Recipients and sub-recipients shall comply with the applicable requirements of 10 CFR Part 600, Federal Statutes, the OMB Circulars.
