About this award

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration awarded a $516,000 grant contract to the Bay Area Environmental Research Institute, doing business as Baer Institute, to identify the origin of non-thermal broadenings in high-temperature solar flare lines. The research will help understand how energy is transported and deposited during solar flares. Performance will take place in Moffett Field, California over a four-year period ending in March 2024. The contract was awarded as an other than competitive transaction with NASA as the funding agency to support the agency's goals of advancing solar physics knowledge.
