About this award

This is a $88,190.76 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct a series of four Target of Opportunity (TOO) observations using the NuSTAR and NICER X-ray telescopes. The observations will focus on five recurrent black hole binary systems to obtain high signal-to-noise data. This grant does not have a set-aside designation. Caltech is a leading private research university that has received over $500 million in prime federal contract awards from agencies like NASA and the Department of Defense over the past 5 years to support a wide range of scientific research, engineering, and technical services. Caltech has also received over $50 million in federal grants during this period to fund research in areas aligned with the missions of agencies like NASA, NSF, and NIH.
