- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $470,905 grant to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMCP) to mine the Swift gamma-ray burst archive and discover new short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). The goal is to systematically search the untapped Swift data archive to find GRBs that were not detected by the on-board trigger system. Any GRBs found will be correlated with signals from other facilities such as the Fermi gamma-ray space telescope and gravitational wave...
- This is a $71,536.99 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) for two searches of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) data for sub-threshold short gamma-ray bursts. The grant runs from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2023 and does not have a set-aside designation. UAH is a public research university that frequently supports NASA's mission through federal contracts and grants, particularly in areas like space...
- This is a $436,539 grant awarded by NASA to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York for research on the impact of nucleosynthesis on accretion disks, outflows, and observable signatures associated with the merger of binary compact objects and the central engines of gamma-ray bursts and supernovae. The research program will investigate rapid accretion following the tidal disruption of a white dwarf by a neutron star or black hole, as well as the long-term evolution of...
- This is a $40,061 grant for research awarded by the Shared Services Center (a civilian agency) to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH). The contract is for "FAST NICER FOLLOW-UP OF SELECTED GAMMA-RAY BURSTS: SEARCHING FOR SIGNATURES MAGNETAR CENTRAL ENGINES", indicating it involves research related to gamma-ray bursts and magnetar central engines. The award is not associated with a set-aside program and has an ultimate completion date of June 2, 2026. UAH is a public...
- This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC21K2036, was granted to The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency under the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The $75,000 grant is for research aimed at improving the localization of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) instrument. The research involves utilizing data from the Swift satellite's Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) to either...
- This is a $55,420.56 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center (a civilian agency) to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a non-profit research organization, to improve the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) localizations using the Interplanetary Network. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will run from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2024. USRA frequently partners with universities, companies, and government agencies to advance space science and exploration,...
- This federal contract award, ID 80NSSC20K1572, was granted to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) to search for X-ray bursts using the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) instrument and partner with the Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) to identify coincident events. The $74,141.48 grant was awarded on October 1, 2020 by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, with a period of performance through September 30, 2022. UAH is a non-profit, state-controlled institution of...
- This is a $59,629 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to continue research on gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their implications for physics, including theories of quantum gravity and constraints on the extragalactic background light. The grant, which runs from February 1, 2021 to January 31, 2024, does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Maryland, College Park is a state-controlled institution of...
- This $41,276.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to continue a successful program of follow-up observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). The program aims to provide rapid and accurate localizations, photometric redshifts, and multi-color afterglow observations of these high-energy GRB events, which have opened up new realms of study from GRB physics to theories...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to New York University (NYU) to investigate the physics behind core-collapse supernovae and ultra-relativistic outflows using pulsar wind nebulae. The $310,269.19 grant will fund research to measure the properties of 17 neutron stars and their associated pulsar wind nebulae in order to address fundamental questions about how neutron stars form, how particles are created and accelerated in...
