About this award
This is a $685,359.00 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), a public polytechnic research university. The grant is for research on solar activity, from spectral irradiance variations to solar storms and geomagnetic disturbances, with the aim of understanding the underlying magnetic field dynamics in the convection zone below the sun's surface. NJIT, which has a strong track record of securing federal research grants and contracts, will perform this work without any set-aside designation, indicating its technical capabilities were competitively selected. The grant aligns with NJIT's expertise in solar physics, space weather, and advanced computational methods, and the university has collaborated with other academic institutions, national labs, and federal agencies on similar research initiatives funded by the National Science Foundation.
Description
All manifestations of solar activity from spectral irradiance variations to solar storms and geomagnetic disturbances are caused by the magnetic fields generated by a dynamo mechanism operating in the convection zone deep below the visible surface
