About this award
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $560,418 sole source grant to The Johns Hopkins University to support research examining the flow of solar wind energy into Earth's polar ionosphere through March 2025. As the prime contractor, Johns Hopkins will analyze how particle precipitation and Joule heating introduce most of the solar wind's electron and proton energy into the polar regions of the ionosphere. This research complements NASA's efforts to advance scientific understanding of space weather events and their impacts. No subcontractors or set-aside designations were specified.
Description
Science goals and objectives: a significant portion of the solar wind energy enters the polar-region ionosphere through the magnetosphere in the form of particle precipitation and joule heating. Although electrons carry most of the energy, proton
