About this award

This is a $624,675.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Iowa for a research project titled "Plasmaspheric Hiss Waves Play a Critical Role in Driving Particle Loss in the Inner Magnetosphere, Yet the Origin of These Waves Remains to Be Fully Explained." The objective is to conduct ray tracing simulations to investigate the origin of plasmaspheric hiss waves and their role in particle loss within the Earth's inner magnetosphere. The grant has an ultimate completion date of October 31, 2025. This award does not have a set-aside designation, as the University of Iowa is a large public research institution. The university has an extensive portfolio of federal contracts and grants, including work for the Department of Veterans Affairs, Indian Health Service, and other government agencies, leveraging its research capabilities across various scientific and medical fields.
