The National High Energy Physics Science Data Center (NHEPSDC) focuses on the aggregation and sharing of scientific data generated during research activities in the field of high energy physics, encompassing data resources, software tools, and data analysis capabilities. The data center provides services to researchers, students, and other users worldwide for fundamental research in high energy physics, neutron science, synchrotron radiation experiments, astrophysics, and other interdisciplinary research fields.
NHEPSDC and WDS share the common goals of ensuring access to high quality data, providing data services, and creating community through the sharing and preservation of data. These shared goals make the NHEPSDC an ideal partner for WDS. The National High Energy Physics Scientific Data Center became a regular member of WDS in February 2026.
