About this award

The U.S. government awarded a $236,890.10 research grant to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) effective January 1, 2022, with completion scheduled for December 31, 2024. The grant supports scientific research titled "Properties of the Suprathermal Ion Population in the Inner Heliosphere During Quiet Times," which falls within the heliophysics research domain that SwRI actively pursues through its extensive portfolio with NASA's Science Mission Directorate. The work will be performed at SwRI's headquarters location in San Antonio, Texas. No set-aside designation applies to this award, reflecting open competition in the federal grant process.

This grant represents one of numerous research awards SwRI receives from civilian science agencies for space physics investigations and instrument development. SwRI's work on suprathermal ions contributes to broader heliophysics research objectives encompassing solar wind interactions, space weather phenomena, and coronal processes. The institute's established capabilities in solar wind sensor development and participation in space missions studying solar phenomena position it to effectively execute this investigative work, which advances understanding of particle energization processes in the near-Earth space environment during periods of low solar and geomagnetic activity.
