- The University of Florida Division of Sponsored Research was awarded a $1.24 million grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to support testing and verification of prototypes for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. LISA is a NASA-supported European Space Agency-led space-based gravitational wave observatory planned for launch in the mid-2020s. Under the grant, the University of Florida will verify the dimensional stability of LISA telescope structural...
- This federal contract award to the University of Florida (UF) through its Division of Sponsored Research supports the development of a charge management system (CMS) for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission, which consists of three spacecraft forming an equilateral triangle in orbit. The CMS is a critical component that controls the bulk potential of the test masses in the gravitational reference sensors (GRS), allowing them to freely fall and enabling the detection of...
- NASA awarded a $4.11M research grant to the University of Florida's Division of Sponsored Research for LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna) Telescope Ground Verification, Part B, with a completion date of February 28, 2026. The work will be performed in Gainesville, Florida, and supports NASA's efforts to develop ground verification capabilities for the LISA mission, which aims to detect gravitational waves in the 10 microhertz to 1 hertz frequency range. This award carries no small...
- This federal contract award was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Florida (UF) Division of Sponsored Research to conduct research and development on an optical bench for a LISA-like mission. The $649,636.25 grant will support UF's efforts to redesign the core parts of the interferometer bench, explore alternative materials and assembly techniques, and reduce the number and lengths of critical paths. This work aims to simplify the manufacturing process...
- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Florida (UF) Division of Sponsored Research. The $861,176.94 grant will fund a concept study for advanced inertial sensors to support gravitational wave astrophysics research. The project aims to develop new technologies to improve the acceleration noise performance and reduce the complexity of the inertial sensor for the European-led Evolved Laser Interferometer Space Antenna...
- NASA's Goddard Space Center awarded a $15.7M cost-no-fee definitive contract to the University of Florida's Division of Sponsored Research on January 1, 2021, for the design, fabrication, alignment, testing, and delivery of a Technology Readiness Level 6 breadboard for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) Charge Management Device (CMD). LISA is a joint NASA-ESA mission designed to detect gravitational waves in space, and the CMD is a critical subsystem responsible for managing...
- This federal contract award to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, a major public research university, focuses on developing a new method for measuring the properties of the stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) using data from the upcoming Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. LISA is a space-based gravitational-wave observatory being jointly developed by the European Space Agency and NASA, expected to launch in 2034. The $433,345.00 grant will support the...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $600,000 grant to The Johns Hopkins University to support research related to the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission.
