About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is a $424,732.99 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct research on the physico-chemical evolution of protoplanetary disks. The research will use high-resolution infrared through millimeter-/centimeter-wave spectroscopy of disks and comets to test expectations. The key objectives are to conduct detailed studies involving statistically significant samples. This award is not set aside and is part of NASA's "Origin and Evolution of Organics and Water in Planetary System" major program. Caltech is a private research university that has received over $500 million in prime federal contract awards over the past 5 years, primarily from NASA and the Department of Defense, in areas such as space technology, quantum computing, and scientific research.

Description

As the agency reported it.

We therefore propose to test the expectations concerning the physico-chemical evolution of protoplanetary disks via high resolution IR through MM-/cmwave spectroscopy of disks and comets. Through extensive nirspec m-band spectroscopy we have confirmed that CO is indeed a widespread t racer in classical and transitional disks. Spectro-astrometric observations of the CO v= l --to band have confirmed the expected keplerian velocity fields and "imaged" the disk gas down to scales of 0.1 AU. The key to future progress are detailed studies involving statistically significant samples, which forms the basis of this proposal.
