About this award

This is a $414,149.79 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Chicago, a private research university, to model the post-accretion cooling of water-rich exoplanets. The objective is to assess the conditions under which these exoplanets will cool sufficiently to condense liquid water oceans. This grant does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting the University of Chicago's status as a large, established research institution. The university often collaborates with other academic and industry partners on federally funded research initiatives.

Description

We propose to model the post-accretion cooling of water-rich exoplanets (with at least 1% water by mass) to assess the conditions under which the planets will cool sufficiently to condense liquid water oceans.
