## What the grant funds

The DOE SC programs in Basic Energy Sciences (BES) and Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) announce their interest in receiving applications from interdisciplinary teams to establish partnerships under the Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing (SciDAC) program in specific targeted topic areas that relate to the BES and ASCR missions. Targeted topics are described in the Supplementary Information section below. This Announcement invites new research applications for the SciDAC Partnerships in BES that enable or accelerate scientific discovery employing DOE High-Performance Computing (HPC) facilities. For the purpose of this Announcement, the term “DOE HPC” has been expanded to include the high-performance production computational systems at the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC), the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF), the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF), or similar DOE computing facilities. DOE HPC includes the exascale machines Frontier and Aurora.
