- This is a $135,000.00 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) on September 1, 2018. The contract, which has no set-aside designation, will investigate the large-scale dynamics and tracer transport in Jupiter's troposphere to explain recent observations of ammonia, arsenic hydride, and germanium hydride from the Juno mission and ground-based telescopes. The goal is to develop a...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $639,462 grant to the University of California, Berkeley to conduct research in support of the Juno spacecraft mission to Jupiter. The grant will fund the use of the Upgraded Very Large Array (VLA) to produce global maps of Jupiter's atmosphere at 1-4 cm wavelengths, which will provide critical context for data collected by Juno's Microwave Radiometer (MWR). The research team will also use Gemini and Keck telescopes to obtain...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC21M0135, was issued by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) as the prime contractor. The contract, which is not set aside, supports numerical calculations to model the formation and evolution of Jupiter and other giant planets in the solar system, with the goal of resolving discrepancies between current models and observations from the Juno space mission. The contract has a ceiling value of...
- This federal contract award is a $430,525 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to conduct research on the characteristics of large impact features on the Galilean icy satellites of Jupiter (Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto). The research aims to test hypotheses on the formation and evolution of these impact basins, which exhibit unique features compared to craters on other solar system bodies. The work will involve...
- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) was awarded a $540,820 research grant by a civilian federal agency on February 1, 2020, with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2027. This non-set-aside grant supports fundamental research into the polygonal patterns of polar cyclones on Jupiter, a major discovery made possible by NASA's Juno spacecraft. The research leverages Juno's unique highly-inclined orbital vantage point to observe and analyze vortex dynamics in Jupiter's...
- This is a $45,231.73 grant awarded by NASA to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) for research related to "JUPITER'S DYNAMIC TIDES NON-PERTURBATIVELY". The grant is part of NASA's Jupiter Planetary Science Program (JPSP) and has a completion date of June 12, 2024. UC Berkeley is the prime contractor for this research effort, which does not have a small business set-aside designation. The State of California Controller's Office, as the parent organization of UC...
- The University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) received a $371,142 grant award (21-XRP21-0083) from a civilian federal agency to conduct research on exoplanet aerosols. The research initiative, titled "Towards a Holistic Understanding of Exoplanet Aerosols Using Microphysical Modeling," aims to systematically investigate the formation, distribution, and observational consequences of haze and cloud aerosols on warm and hot tidally locked exoplanets, including hot Jupiters and warm...
- 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...
- This is a $518,218 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) for research into "Diverse Convective Styles on Jupiter and Saturn." The grant has a period of performance through May 31, 2026. UC Berkeley, a public research university, will conduct this research as the prime contractor. The award is not a set-aside contract. The parent organization administering the funding is the State of California...
- The Regents of The University of Colorado at Boulder received a $194,060.16 research grant awarded September 1, 2024, with completion targeted for January 20, 2026, to conduct fluid dynamics simulations investigating the interiors of Jupiter and gas giants. The research, identified as 23-SSW23-0034, focuses on characterizing the mixing efficiency of convection processes and understanding the nature of dilute cores within these planetary bodies. The award carries no set-aside designation and is...
