About this award
The University of California, Berkeley received a $413,075 grant award from a civilian federal agency (through the Shared Services Center) on October 1, 2021, to conduct research on "Properties of the Suprathermal Ion Population in the Inner Heliosphere During Quiet Times." The research grant, which extends through September 30, 2026, represents a competitive award with no set-aside designation, reflecting the university's selection based on scientific merit. UC Berkeley, a premier public research institution and land grant university, brings substantial expertise in space exploration and scientific research to this project, which likely falls within the purview of NASA's heliophysics research priorities given its focus on solar wind ion populations and inner heliosphere dynamics.
As a child awardee under the State of California Controllers Office, UC Berkeley will leverage its advanced research capabilities and interdisciplinary approach to investigate fundamental properties of suprathermal ions during geomagnetically quiet periods. This research contributes to broader understanding of solar wind behavior and heliospheric physics, with potential applications for space weather forecasting and solar physics. The award reflects UC Berkeley's continued role as a critical federal research partner, consistent with the university's track record of securing competitive grants from agencies including NASA, the National Science Foundation, and the Department of Energy across diverse scientific domains.
