The grant is for a project titled "EO14042 ORIENTATION, VELOCITY, AND STRUCTURE OF RECONNECTING REGIONS" with a period of performance from June 1, 2022 through June 30, 2025. Dartmouth College, which has extensive experience conducting research under federal contracts and grants, will use its academic...
- This is a $568,771.12 federal research grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD). The grant supports a 3-year study on nonlinear wave-particle interactions in the Earth's outer radiation belt, with a focus on understanding the role of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves and whistler-mode chorus waves in causing energetic electron scattering and precipitation. The research aims to develop improved models for simulating the kinetic evolution...
- This is a $636,766.00 grant award from a civilian federal agency to Trustees of Dartmouth College, a private Ivy League research university, for a research project focused on understanding the relationship between time-dependent neutral fluxes and the underlying time-dependent global heliosphere. The research seeks to establish a comprehensive, detailed understanding of how neutral atoms from the interstellar medium interact with the time-dependent plasma distributions in the global...
- This is a $463,067 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to investigate the role of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves and the magnetopause in the rapid dropouts of ultrarelativistic electrons in the Earth's radiation belt. The research aims to address key goals in NASA's Heliophysics Decadal Survey related to understanding the dynamics and coupling of the Earth's magnetosphere. The grant supports...
- This is a grant award to Trustees of Dartmouth College, Office of Sponsored Projects Division, doing business as Dartmouth College, to conduct research on the mechanisms of oxygen upwelling and acceleration in the Earth's magnetosphere-ionosphere system. The $807,368.54 award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under contract number 80NSSC19K0071 will allow Dartmouth to use advanced modeling techniques coupled with observational data to investigate how solar wind...
- Trustees of Dartmouth College has been awarded a $284,509.44 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to conduct research on asymmetric magnetic reconnection in space plasmas. This research aims to better understand the three-dimensional nature of this key energy conversion process, which is important for predicting the location and orientation of magnetic reconnection at Earth's magnetopause. The research will utilize two-dimensional and...
This is a $524,856.84 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Trustees of Dartmouth College to support research on the role of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves in precipitating relativistic electrons from the Earth's radiation belts. The goal is to expand understanding of radiation belt particle dynamics and quantify the effectiveness of EMIC waves in causing electron precipitation over a broad energy range. This work addresses one of the high-level science goals from the Heliophysics Decadal Survey to determine the dynamics and coupling of the Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and atmosphere. There is no set-aside designation for this grant, which has a period of performance through February 2024.
