This federal contract award to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) is for the "Optimization of the GRAPE Polarimeter Design" project, which aims to develop and test an improved gamma-ray polarimeter instrument for studying gamma-ray bursts. The $558,894.27 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will allow UNH to advance the Gamma-Ray Polarimeter Experiment (GRAPE) technology, building on previous balloon flight validations. The contract has no set-aside...
The federal contract award NNX17AC85G, valued at $300,000.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), through its Office of Sponsored Research, to continue the development of a soft gamma-ray concentrator. The objective is to create a multilayer structure that can channel soft gamma-ray photons via total external reflection, enabling a compact soft gamma-ray telescope suitable for balloon-borne instruments. This work...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center awarded a $100,000.00 grant for research to the University System of New Hampshire (UNH), through its University of New Hampshire division operating as the Office of Sponsored Research. The contract, titled "BEAM MEASUREMENTS OF THE GRAPE RESPONSE CHARACTERISTICS," has a period of performance ending on August 31, 2025. UNH, as a non-profit organization and 1862 Land Grant College, has experience providing...
The University of New Hampshire (UNH), through its Office of Sponsored Research, has been awarded an $817,526 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study the science goals and objectives of how the solar wind flowing past the terrestrial magnetosphere changes over time, including abruptly. No set-aside designation was used for this award. Work will be performed at a location in Lee, New Hampshire and is expected to be completed by December 31, 2024. UNH will...
This $258,982.40 federal grant award, issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), supports the University of New Hampshire (UNH) in conducting a comprehensive analysis of Earth albedo neutron and gamma data collected by the COMPTEL experiment on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory spacecraft between 1991-2000. The data covers the energy range of 15-150 MeV neutrons and 0.8-30 MeV gamma rays, which are relevant for modeling the dynamics of the inner radiation belt. This work...
The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $1,048,000.00 grant to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) to provide planning, operations, data processing, calibration, and data validation associated with a stereo/plastic instrument and related data. The award, which runs from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027, is not a set-aside contract. UNH's Office of Sponsored Research will serve as the prime contractor for this research grant. While no subcontractors are...
This $968,807 federal grant award to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), under the University System of New Hampshire (USNH), is for the development of EO14042 Transition Edge Sensor Arrays for high-energy X-ray and gamma-ray astronomy. The award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and does not have a set-aside designation.

The University of New Hampshire (UNH), through its Office of Sponsored Research, has been awarded a $2,750,000 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to develop a prototype gamma ray polarimeter instrument called the Gamma Ray Polarimeter Experiment (GRAPE). GRAPE will measure the polarization of gamma rays from gamma-ray bursts in the energy range of 50 to 500 keV to better understand the geometry and physical processes close to gamma-ray burst central engines. UNH will fabricate a prototype GRAPE instrument utilizing a three-dimensional array of optically-isolated scintillator cubes with independent silicon photomultiplier readout, providing moderate Compton imaging capabilities. The prototype will be validated in a engineering balloon flight scheduled for summer 2021. No set-aside designation was used for this award. Work will be performed at UNH's location in Lee, New Hampshire and is aimed at furthering NASA's goals of gamma-ray burst research through a new polarimeter technology demonstration.
