- This is a $1,069,730.00 grant award made by a U.S. government civilian agency to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, for a project titled "Robust Deep Contrast Imaging with Self-Calibrating Coronagraph Systems." The award is for research and does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Arizona is the prime contractor and there are no major subcontractors mentioned. The award is associated with the University of Arizona's extensive...
- This is a $87,360.99 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona (UA) to perform a laboratory demonstration of combined high-performance coronagraph and wide-field astrometric imaging capabilities. The goal is to augment a high-performance coronagraph, which can detect and characterize exoplanets, with wide-field astrometry to enable measurements of exoplanet masses and orbits. This work will increase the technology readiness level (TRL)...
- This $561,240.00 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, supports research to improve exoplanet coronagraph design and analysis. The objective is to develop more accurate models of the coronagraph's complex point spread function, methods to correct chromatic aberration and polarization aberrations, and improved exoplanet retrieval algorithms. This work is critical for...
- The University of Arizona, operating as the Arizona Board of Regents, was awarded a $363,224 research grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under solicitation 22-ADAP22-0066 to develop a comprehensive spectral line list for near-infrared spectroscopy covering the 1-5 micron wavelength range using M-dwarf and red giant stars as astronomical benchmarks. The grant, awarded on August 8, 2023, with performance concluding by August 7, 2026, supports fundamental...
- This federal contract award, issued by the Shared Services Center (an alternate name for the NASA agency), provides $246,678 in grant funding to the University of Arizona for a research project titled "Determining the Optical-to-Mid-Infrared SEDs and Empirical Bolometric Luminosities of Young Jovian Exoplanets via Direct Imaging with Magellan Adaptive Optics." The goal is to use the University's Magellan Adaptive Optics (MagAO) system to obtain comprehensive optical and infrared...
- This is a $124,130.15 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, for research on the direct imaging and interferometry of proto-planets at the epoch of disk clearing. The grant runs from July 1, 2016, through June 30, 2021. The University of Arizona is a public research university and 1862 land grant institution located in Tucson, Arizona. As a state government entity, higher education...
- The University of Arizona, operating as the Arizona Board of Regents, was awarded a $599,729 research grant by a civilian federal agency through an EO 14042 initiative on October 24, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of October 23, 2026. The grant funds development of sapphire composite lattices with ultrafast laser-tunable thermal expansion for NASA missions, specifically to support high-contrast imaging systems designed to directly image Earth-like exoplanets. The project aims to engineer...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC21K0397, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents. The $298,419.00 grant is for a research project to use the newly developed Extreme Adaptive Optics system called MagAO-X to discover a large population of "hidden" young accreting planets, or protoplanets, in the gaps of transitional disks. The University of...
- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents. The $353,535.13 grant is for the University of Arizona to design and develop a Pupil Imaging and Apodized Aperture Coronagraph Mask Components (PIAACMC) system, working closely with the Principal Investigator (PI) and research team. The University will lead the focal plane mask design activity,...
