About this award
The University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. received a $518,778 research grant from a civilian federal agency (Shared Services Center) awarded on September 1, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2026. The grant supports ongoing investigations aligned with Cosmic Origins science goals, specifically focusing on observations of hydroxyl (OH) radical emissions to study star formation, planetary system development, and volatile delivery to Earth. The OH radical serves as a critical species in water chemistry within star-forming regions, providing essential insights into oxygen and water relationships in the interstellar medium and representing a key product of water photodissociation. This research effort was not designated under any set-aside category, allowing the foundation to compete broadly for the award.
The work will be performed at the awardee's facility in Athens, Georgia. The University of Georgia Research Foundation, a non-profit organization serving as the sponsored research and technology transfer arm for the University of Georgia, has demonstrated extensive capabilities in executing complex research projects across multiple scientific disciplines. As a registered entity in SAM.gov since 2001, the foundation regularly collaborates with federal agencies including the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, and NASA on research spanning biomedical sciences, environmental studies, and astronomical observations, positioning it effectively to deliver the scientific objectives outlined in this cosmic origins research initiative.
Description
Many ongoing investigations in support of cosmic origins science goals to study the formation of STARS, birth of planetary systems, and delivery of volatiles to earth, rely on observations of OH emission.
