About this award

This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC21K2044, was granted to the Smithsonian Institution's Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) to conduct "STUDIES OF THE DYNAMICS AND OBSERVABLE PREDICTIONS IN MAGNETIC RECONNECTION REGIONS". The $568,686.00 cost-reimbursement grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), aims to enhance the understanding of how magnetic energy is transformed into various plasma energies. The Smithsonian Institution, a non-profit organization, frequently collaborates with universities and serves as both a prime contractor and subcontractor on NASA and National Science Foundation (NSF) projects, delivering specialized aerospace systems and ground-based observational equipment. This award is not associated with any set-aside designation.

Description

Studies of the dynamics and observable predictions in magnetic reconnection regions are crucial to understanding how the magnetic energy is quickly transformed into plasma kinetic energy, thermal energy, and non-thermal particle energy
