About this award
The University System of New Hampshire (USNH), through its University of New Hampshire division, received a $714,410 research grant award from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center effective September 1, 2021, with completion by August 31, 2026. This grant supports research into plasma instabilities driven by thermal ion distribution functions in the solar wind, investigating physical processes that are typically analyzed under assumptions of uniform and stationary backgrounds. The award carries no set-aside designation and reflects USNH's established capabilities as a research-intensive land-grant institution in supporting federal agencies' scientific priorities.
The research conducted under this grant will advance understanding of solar wind plasma dynamics, an area relevant to space weather research and heliophysics. USNH's involvement aligns with its demonstrated portfolio of federal research partnerships, particularly with agencies focused on space science and atmospheric phenomena. The five-year performance period allows for comprehensive investigation of these plasma instabilities, with the work performed at the University of New Hampshire's facility in Lee, New Hampshire. This award exemplifies USNH's role as a critical research partner for federal agencies pursuing advanced scientific knowledge in space physics and related disciplines.
