About this award
This is a grant award to The Pennsylvania State University, doing business as Penn State, in the amount of $77,998.94 from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The award will enable long-term multiwavelength observations of high-interest Fermi gamma-ray sources using the Swift spacecraft, with the goal of studying the acceleration and emission characteristics of blazar sources. The award has an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2023 and is not associated with a set-aside designation. Penn State is the prime awardee on this grant, which aligns with NASA's ongoing astrophysics and space science research programs.
Description
This proposal will enable long-term low-to-high state multiwavelength coverage of fermi sources of interest, specifically with swift, while also enabling more intense toos on high states from blazars and transients. In the coming cycle, we will add value by implementing SED fitting with lepto-hadronic models, with publicly posted results. This legacy project is needed for long-term multi-band correlation and emission studies in low-to-high states, enabling acceleration/emission studies of blazars. Observations will be coordinated with other observatories to maximize science return. This effort provides a real-time public reduced-data service and an archival legacy project for all researchers of these high interest fermi sources
