This is a $371,142 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to systematically investigate the formation, distribution, and observational consequences of haze and cloud aerosols on warm and hot tidally locked exoplanets, such as hot Jupiters and warm Neptunes. The contract has no set-aside designation, reflecting UCSC's status as a large research institution. UCSC is a public university and part of the...
This is a $86,567.24 federal grant award to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to conduct research on the roles of organic compounds produced by photolysis and radiolysis in various physical and chemical processes on Titan, Saturn's largest moon. The grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on March 1, 2022, with a performance period ending on January 16, 2024. UCSC, a public research university and Hispanic-Serving Institution, frequently...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $185,986.02 grant to the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) for research on early volatile retention or loss in small bodies in the outer solar system. The objective is to develop theoretical models of vapor outflow driven by high surface temperatures as a potential mass loss pathway, and compare the results to observational data. This grant will help test hypotheses about the formation of Kuiper Belt objects and the...
This is a $124,647.04 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to conduct a systematic study of the atmospheres of directly imaged exoplanets. The grant is part of NASA's "Understanding the Directly Imaged Planets" program, which aims to advance exoplanet science by characterizing newly discovered planets through ground-based and space-based spectroscopy. UCSC, as a public research university and...
This federal contract award, with ID NNX16AG08G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to investigate large-scale dynamics and tracer transport in the middle atmosphere of the gas giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The $387,655.97 grant supports the use of comprehensive three-dimensional circulation models to improve understanding of these planetary atmospheres based on space-based and...
NASA awarded a $86,000.00 grant to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to conduct research on the hydrodynamics of planetary engulfment.
