New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) was awarded an $804,396.81 research grant by a civilian federal agency to investigate the origin of seed particles associated with solar energetic particle (SEP) events and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). The project combines multi-frequency microwave imaging data from the Expanded Owens Valley Solar Array (EOVSA) with observations from multiple NASA space missions—including RHESSI, SOHO, STEREO-A, SDO, HINODE, and IRIS—as well as ground-based observations from Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO) to advance understanding of particle acceleration mechanisms during solar flares. The research addresses a fundamental gap in current shock acceleration theory, which requires pre-existing populations of non-thermal seed particles but lacks direct observational evidence of these particles in the high-altitude regions where CMEs originate. The grant was awarded on November 14, 2018, with a completion date of October 22, 2024. The project's primary objectives include obtaining flare-accelerated particle diagnostics at high altitudes through microwave imaging spectroscopy of dozens of solar flares already captured by EOVSA, and dynamically linking these spatially-resolved diagnostics to both lower atmospheric conditions and the broader eruption and CME phenomena. The work is performed at NJIT's Newark, New Jersey location and represents the university's continued research contributions in solar physics and space weather to the national science enterprise. No set-aside designation was applied to this award.
