Physical Sciences (Basic Research)
Abstract
This project (PS1) advances fundamental scientific knowledge in physical science areas that include chemistry, physics, materials science, environmental science, and nanotechnology that could potentially lead to transformational CB defensive capabilities enhancing Warfighter performance and safety. This project is a key enabler supporting the Mitigate, Protect, and Understand portfolios. Individual efforts in this Project include: -Innovative materials focuses on understanding the physics, physical properties, fabrication pathways, and characterization methods related to material classes that would enable novel, advanced capabilities for decontamination, protection and detection of chemical and biological (CB) threats. -Novel sensing research to improve the understanding of elementary physics or fundamental materials properties to construct novel platforms and approaches for detection, diagnostics, hazard mitigation and protection. -Modeling sciences research to explore the potential of AI/ML computational approaches for hazard mitigation, stand-off physio-monitoring, rational and rapid design of medical countermeasures, and novel materials with enhanced efficacy.
