About this award

This is a $612,438.00 grant award from the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the Space Science Institute (SSI), a nonprofit research organization in Boulder, Colorado. The goal of the project is to extend an existing model of electron and ion fluxes in the inner magnetosphere to cover a broader spatial and energy range. The grant builds on a previously developed model that currently provides forecasts of ion and electron fluxes at geosynchronous orbit. This award does not have a set-aside designation. SSI has extensive experience supporting NASA, the National Science Foundation, and the Department of Energy through both prime and subcontract awards in areas such as astrophysics, planetary science, and heliophysics.

Description

The goal of the project is to advance a currently existing model of the electron and ION fluxes in the inner magnetosphere by extending the spatial coverage to L2-7, and extending the energy coverage to 0.001-2000 KEV. The project will build on the framework and methodology of a freely-available and independently-tested model that currently delivers forecasts of the ION and electron fluxes at geosynchronous orbit (GEO) ldenton ET AL., 2015; denton ET AL., 2016]. Since its development the model has been successfully utilized by a variety of groups in the community with a science, operations, and commercial focus.
