- This is a $372,851.82 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Colorado (CU) for a research project titled "Temporal Evolution of Plasma near Mars: A Multi-Point Approach." The project aims to use data from the MAVEN and Mars Express spacecraft to study the temporal and spatial variability of the Martian plasma environment, addressing key questions about the response time to changes in upstream conditions, the stability of plasma conditions at low...
- This is a $333,295.00 grant award to The Regents of the University of Colorado (doing business as the University of Colorado) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for research on the upper atmosphere of Mars. The award supports analysis of data from two Mars spacecraft, the Mars Express mission's SPICAM instrument and the MAVEN mission's IUVS instrument, using Mars general circulation models to characterize the dynamics of the Martian middle and upper atmosphere. This...
- This federal contract award to The Regents of the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning, supports research on atmospheric escape from Mars. The $89,247.08 contract, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is focused on studying the role of crustal magnetic fields in driving ion escape from the Martian atmosphere, which has implications for understanding the planet's past habitability. The work aligns with the...
- This is a $452,846.46 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to study plasma motion and electric fields in localized magnetic cusp regions on the night side of Mars. The grant is part of NASA's Solar System Workings program, which seeks to understand physical processes affecting planetary atmospheres, exospheres, and magnetospheres. The University of...
- This is a $472,965.00 grant award to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) by a Civilian government agency, the Shared Services Center, for research on "The Relative Importance of Day-to-Night Transport and Electron Precipitation in the Martian Nightside Ionosphere". The award is not designated as a set-aside contract. CU is a prominent public research university based in Boulder, Colorado, with extensive experience executing federal contracts and grants across scientific...
- This federal contract award, valued at $594,278, was granted by a civilian federal agency to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) to analyze new and unanticipated solar occultation measurements of the Mars thermosphere (120-200 km) made by the Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Monitor (EUVM) onboard the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) orbiter. The award, which is classified as a Grant for Research, has an ultimate completion date of August 20, 2026. CU is a prominent public...
- This federal contract award (NNX15AM55G) was granted by NASA to the University of Colorado to re-assess global ion escape rates from the Martian atmosphere using data from the Mars Express (MEX) mission. The objective is to provide improved estimates of ion escape from Mars that can be directly compared to measurements from the ongoing MAVEN mission. The $199,822.75 grant will fund research to determine the measured flux of oxygen, carbon monoxide, and other heavy ion species, and to estimate...
- This $60,768.27 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to support research for the Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission (MMS). The MMS has collected extensive high-resolution plasma, particle, and magnetic field data in the Earth's magnetotail region from altitudes ranging from 12 to 29 Earth radii. The grant, awarded on September...
- The University of Colorado, Boulder was awarded a $398,692.95 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct laboratory research supporting the agency's Mars Express (MEX), Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN), and Venus Express (VEX) missions. The research will utilize the MAVEN Imaging Ultraviolet Spectrograph (IUVS) engineering model to study the response of the Martian and Venusian upper atmospheres to variations in solar radiation. Key objectives...
