This is a $75,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) on December 17, 2020. The grant supports research on "Fermi Observations of Powerful Jets" that has helped clarify the X-ray emission mechanism in kiloparsec-scale jets. UMBC, a public research university and part of the University System of Maryland, has a history of providing research, measurement, and analytical services to support NASA programs across areas like Earth science, astrophysics, aeronautics, and space technologies. The grant work is scheduled for completion by December 16, 2023. This award does not have a set-aside designation.
Description
Fermi observations of powerful jets have been instrumental in clarifying the x-RAY emission mechanism in KPC-scale jets, ruling out the once-popular inverse-compton off the CMB (IC/CMB) model in dozens of sources (breiding, 2018).
