- This is a $369,967.61 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on the dynamics and coupling of the Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and atmosphere in response to solar and terrestrial inputs. The objective is to identify and characterize the primary plasma motions responsible for the onset of explosive magnetotail activity during substorms and bursty bulk flows. The research will use data from NASA's Cluster, THEMIS,...
- This federal contract award was granted to The Johns Hopkins University, a private, non-profit research university in Baltimore, Maryland. The $90,301.95 grant is for research on Electromagnetic Ion Cyclotron (EMIC) waves, which are important plasma instabilities in the space environment. The research aims to advance knowledge of EMIC wave resonant interactions with the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission. The contract is funded by a civilian federal agency, the Shared Services Center. It is...
- This is a $427,105.72 grant awarded to The Johns Hopkins University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for a research project to study the effects of dayside ionospheric conductance on the structure and dynamics of the magnetotail. The primary goal is to identify and evaluate the active role of the dayside ionospheric conductance in the solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling. The research will use satellite data analysis and global magnetohydrodynamic modeling to...
- This is a $319,554.14 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University (JHU) to study the effects of interplanetary shocks on the Earth's magnetosphere. The study aims to improve understanding of how shock-induced cavity mode oscillations (CMOs) interact with energetic electrons in the magnetosphere. The investigation will leverage data from multiple space weather monitoring satellites, including the Van Allen Probes and Time History of...
- 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...
- The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $319,899 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Shared Services Center to conduct research on ultra-low-frequency (ULF) waves in Earth's inner magnetosphere. The project focuses on analyzing spacecraft data from the Radiation Belt Storm Probes (Van Allen Probes) and solar wind data from the THEMIS mission to characterize poloidal ULF waves with radial field line displacement that occur during geomagnetic storms. The research aims...
- This is a $391,825.11 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado to conduct research on the role of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves in the loss of relativistic and ultra-relativistic electrons from the Earth's outer radiation belt. The study aims to quantify the contribution of EMIC waves to the removal of the most energetic radiation belt electrons on timescales of minutes to hours, building on recent observations of EMIC...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $350,000.00 grant to The Aerospace Corporation, a federally funded research and development center, to investigate the effects of low-energy plasma composition on electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves in the Earth's magnetosphere. The grant supports analysis of particle and wave measurements from NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission to better understand the role of plasma composition in the properties of EMIC...
- This is a $744,398.43 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to investigate the accumulation, transport, and energization of oxygen ions (O+) in the plasma sheet and inner magnetosphere. The research aims to address key science questions on how O+ ion properties evolve during geomagnetic storms, how the spatial distribution of O+ ions depends on solar wind conditions and geomagnetic indices, and where the transport of O+ ions...
- This is a $308,034.22 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. The grant is for a project titled "Storm-Time Magnetosphere: Specification and Prediction Using a Global MHD Model with Empirical Ring Current Pressure" which aims to improve predictive modeling of the geospace environment during geomagnetic storms. The project will extract equilibrium magnetic pressure data from the Tsyganenko...
