- The University of California, Berkeley received a $7,486.46 research grant from a civilian federal agency (via the Shared Services Center) awarded on January 1, 2022, with completion expected by December 31, 2024. The grant funds research investigating X-ray bremsstrahlung signatures produced by non-thermal electrons within solar flares in the solar corona. The project employs disk occultation techniques utilizing NuSTAR and Solar Orbiter STIX instrumentation to study non-thermal processes...
- The University of California, Berkeley has been awarded a $711,964 research grant by a civilian federal agency through a shared services center, with performance completion targeted for September 30, 2028. This grant supports the execution of a balanced science program aligned with discipline-specific guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, administration priorities, and congressional direction. The work encompasses scientific research focused on...
- This $153,731.41 grant from NASA to the University of California, Berkeley is funding work to aggregate, analyze, and document the in-situ data from the HELIOS 1 and 2 solar missions, which collected unprecedented measurements of the inner heliosphere over 11 years. The goal is to create a comprehensive public archive of this valuable dataset to support planning for the upcoming Solar Orbiter (SOLO) and Solar Probe Plus (SPP) missions. Key tasks include carefully analyzing and reprocessing the...
- This award is a $411,460.44 grant for research provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). The grant will support a project that involves analyzing data from spacecraft such as Helios, Wind, and ACE, as well as developing simulations using a Langevin model/collisional hybrid expanding box code. The research aims to study the...
- This $997,040 federal grant award to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) supports research to improve forecasting of large solar energetic particle (SEP) events, which is a critical challenge in solar and heliospheric physics. The research will use data-driven modeling and multipoint observations to examine the connectivity between SEP acceleration regions and observer locations, as well as investigate potential seed populations for large SEP events. The grant does not have a...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $133,316.95 training grant to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). The grant will fund research to obtain new measurements of the Sun's magnetic field interior to the Earth's orbit, using the time delay of arrival method to trace the trajectories of type III solar radio bursts. The objectives are to evaluate the accuracy of this method, automate the...
- The University of California, Berkeley received a $261,631 research grant from a civilian federal agency to support scientific research initiatives under the Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) funding program. The award, issued on January 22, 2025, with a completion date of January 21, 2027, carries no set-aside designation and was competitively awarded based on technical merit. The work will be performed at UC Berkeley's Albany, California location and supports the...
- This is a $51,000.00 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on "CONSTRAINING THE MOST EXTREME MASS LOSS EVENTS FROM MASSIVE STARS WITH FERMI AND THE VLA". The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will run until July 25, 2026. UC Berkeley, a public research university and 1862 land grant college, has a long history of supporting advanced scientific research for federal agencies across...
- The U.S. government has awarded a $449,852 grant to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) for a research project titled "CHARACTERIZING LUNAR DAYSIDE PHOTOEMISSION AND ELECTROSTATIC PROPERTIES". The grant was awarded on March 15, 2025 with an ultimate completion date of March 14, 2028. The research is being funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and will be conducted at UC Berkeley's facilities in Albany, California. This grant supports UC...
The University of California, Berkeley was awarded a $770,385.99 research grant by NASA's Glenn Research Center on January 1, 2019, to complete the data archiving and legacy preservation efforts for the Raman Spectrometer and Heliograph (RHESSI) mission. RHESSI conducted over 16 years of successful solar observation through August 2018, collecting unique high-energy diagnostic data on solar flares and recording more than 100,000 events before decommissioning. This award represents a continuation of UC Berkeley's involvement with the mission and addresses the critical need to ensure long-term access to RHESSI's scientific legacy through comprehensive archiving activities. The work is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2024, and no set-aside designation was used in this competitively awarded grant. As a major research institution and established federal partner, UC Berkeley was well-positioned to lead the archiving efforts given its existing role within the RHESSI team. The grant supports the university's data preservation and management infrastructure, enabling researchers and future scientists to access and utilize the mission's extensive solar flare dataset. This archiving phase represents standard practice within NASA's mission lifecycle, ensuring that valuable scientific data from major observational missions remains accessible to the broader research community for decades to come.
