	Description 

	The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) invites
proposals for basic research in support of the Air Force Defense
Research Sciences Program. This program is described in the document
entitled Research Interests and Broad Agency Announcement 2005-1. This
document will guide proposers through AFOSR's research program and
facilitate their preparation of research proposals. It is available on
the AFOSR web site at http://www.afosr.af.mil/. A very limited number of
hard copies will be available for individuals without access to the
AFOSR web site. To request a hard copy, contact AFOSR/PKC at
pkcontracting at afosr.af.mil. 

	 

	The general areas of interest are: (1) Aerospace and Materials
Sciences; e.g., structural mechanics; mechanics of materials and
devices; unsteady aerodynamics and hypersonics; turbulence and rotating
flows; combustion and diagnostics; space power and propulsion; metallic
materials; combustion and diagnostics; space power and propulsion;
metallic materials; ceramics and nonmetallic materials; organic matrix
composites. (2) Physics and Electronics; e.g., electroenergetic physics;
space electronics; atomic and molecular physics; remote sensing and
imaging; optoelectronics: components and information processing; laser
and optical physics; quantum electronic solids; semiconductor materials;
sensors in the space environment; high density optical memory. (3)
Chemistry and Life Sciences; e.g., polymer chemistry; surface and
interfacial science; theoretical chemistry; molecular dynamics;
chronobiology; biomimetics, biomaterials, and biointerfacial sciences;
cognition and decision; sensory systems; biological response profiling
and assessment. (4) Mathematics and Space Sciences; e.g., dynamics and
control; physical mathematics and applied analysis; computational
mathematics; optimization and discrete mathematics; signals
communication and surveillance; software and systems; artificial
intelligence; electromagnetics; space sciences. (5) Education and
Outreach Programs; e.g., United States Air Force Resident Research
Associateship Program; National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate
Fellowship Program; United States Air Force-Summer Faculty Fellowship
Program; Engineer and Scientist Exchange Program; Window on Science
Program; Window on Europe, Window on Asia, and Window on the Americas
Program. Our overriding purpose in supporting this research is to
advance the state-of-the-art in areas related to the technical problems
the Air Force encounters in developing and maintaining a superior Air
Force; in lowering the cost and improving the performance,
maintainability, and supportability of Air Force weapon systems; and in
creating and preventing technological surprise. 

	 

	AFOSR will seek technical options that may address our need for
heightened attention to homeland defense, funding those good ideas that
are relevant to the AF role, and assisting in getting other good ideas
to the agencies that may find them of special relevance to their role.
All pertinent information, including contact persons, evaluation
criteria, and details on specific areas of interest, is discussed in the
AFOSR pamphlet entitled "Research Interests and Broad Agency
Announcement 2005-1". Before sending a proposal, inquire if someone at
AFOSR is interested in your field of work. That person can also provide
guidance for preparing a proposal before you begin to develop the
proposal. Additional information and guidance on format and proposal
submittal may be found in AFOSR Pamphlet, "Proposer's Guide to AFOSR's
Research Programs". This pamphlet is also available on the AFOSR web
site.
