About this award
This is a $80,340.25 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to study the impact of X-ray emissions from young stars on the formation of planetary systems. The 3-year grant supports research monitoring young stars in the Taurus star-forming region using data from the K2 mission. This research aims to further understand how stellar X-ray activity influences the chemistry and dispersal of protoplanetary disks, which is crucial for planetary system formation. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. MIT frequently partners with federal agencies like NASA to conduct cutting-edge scientific research through both contracts and grants.
