ACTION: Notice inviting grant
applications.
SUMMARY: The Division of High Energy
Physics of the Office of Science (SC),
U.S. Department of Energy, hereby
announces its interest in receiving grant
applications for support under its
Advanced Detector Research Program.
Applications should be from
investigators who are currently involved
in experimental high energy physics,
and should be submitted through a U.S.
academic institution. The purpose of
this program is to support the
development of the new detector
technologies needed to perform future
high energy physics experiments.
DATES: To permit timely consideration
for award in Fiscal Year 2004, formal
applications submitted in response to
this notice should be received before
December 2, 2003.
Applicants are requested to submit a
letter of intent by November 3, 2003,
which includes the title of the proposal,
the name of the principal investigator(s),
the requested funding, and a one-page
abstract. Failure to submit a letter of
intent will not negatively prejudice a
responsive formal application submitted
in a timely manner.
ADDRESSES: Formal applications in
response to this solicitation are to be
electronically submitted by an
authorized institutional business official
PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\16SEN1.SGM
through DOE’s Industry Interactive
Procurement System (IIPS) at: http://e-
center.doe.gov/. IIPS provides for the
posting of solicitations and receipt of
applications in a paperless environment
via the Internet. In order to submit
applications through IIPS your business
official will need to register at the IIPS
website. It is suggested that this
registration be completed several days
prior to the date on which you plan to
submit the formal application. The
Office of Science will include
attachments as part of this notice that
provide the appropriate forms in PDF
fillable format that are to be submitted
through IIPS. IIPS offers the option of
submitting multiple files—please limit
submissions to only one file within the
volume if possible, with a maximum of
no more than four files. Color images
should be submitted in IIPS as a
separate file in PDF format and
identified as such. These images should
be kept to a minimum due to the
limitations of reproducing them. They
should be numbered and referred to in
the body of the technical scientific
proposal as Color image 1, Color image
2, etc. Questions regarding the operation
of IIPS may be e-mailed to the IIPS Help
Desk at: helpdesk@pr.doe.gov or you

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Future
high energy physics experiments will
require higher performance detectors to
exploit the higher beam energies and
intensities of new or upgraded
accelerators. Higher performance
detectors are also needed to probe for
new physical processes in both
accelerator-based and non-accelerator-
based experiments. Proposed detector
research should be driven by the
anticipated needs of experiments to be
built within the foreseeable future.
Generic detector research that could be
applied to upgrades that have not yet
been approved would also be
appropriate. It is expected that the final
