About this award
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a grant worth $383,535.08 to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) to conduct research related to the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) mission science objectives. The proposed work will use SDO data and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to investigate the link between current distribution, magnetic shear, and eruptive activity in active regions. This research is highly relevant to understanding the origins of solar activity and improving space weather forecasting, which are key goals of the Heliophysics Decadal Survey. The award does not have a small business set-aside designation.
Description
The proposed work will use data from the NASA's HSO mission SDO, together with MHD simulations to investigate the link between current-distribution, magnetic shear, and eruptive activity in ARS. IT is highly relevant to the SDO mission science objectives "5. What magnetic field configurations lead to the cmes, filament eruptions, and flares that produce energetic particles and radiation?" and "7. When will activity occur, and is IT possible to make accurate and reliable forecasts of space weather and climate?" IT is also relevant to one of the heliophysics decadal survey science goals "1. Determine the origins of the sun's activity and predict the variations in the space environment."
