About this award
Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) received a $73,505 research grant from NASA's Goddard Space Center, awarded on March 4, 2021, with completion targeted for November 30, 2024. The grant supports the development of standardized computational tools for analyzing the thermal structure of coronal plasmas in the solar corona. The project focuses on differential emission measure (DEM) analysis, which characterizes the distribution of squared density along the line of sight as a function of temperature. By creating tools to compute, view, and analyze DEM functions, the research enables comprehensive interpretation of coronal spectral line intensities and advances understanding of solar corona dynamics. The work is being performed at SwRI's San Antonio, Texas location.
This award represents part of SwRI's broader portfolio of heliophysics research supported by NASA's Science Mission Directorate. As a nonprofit research organization with over 2,700 staff members, SwRI brings substantial multidisciplinary scientific and engineering capabilities to federal space science initiatives. The grant was awarded under full and open competition with no set-aside designation, reflecting SwRI's competitive standing among organizations qualified to conduct advanced solar physics research for the civilian space agency.
Description
Science goals: provide a standardized set of tools for computing, viewing, and analyzing the thermal structure of coronal plasmas emission from the solar corona is characterized by a `differential emission measure' (DEM), which is a distribution of squared density along the line of sight as a function of temperature. The intensity of most coronal spectral lines are completely determined by these functions, so they encompasses everything these line intensities can tell US from a single point of view. This project
