About this award

This is a $76,681 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for research on superluminous supernovae (SLSN). SLSN are a rare class of stellar explosions believed to be powered by a highly-magnetized neutron star, known as a central engine, which pumps heat into the ejected material and generates bright optical emissions.

The grant was awarded on October 1, 2021 and has a period of performance through September 30, 2023. Caltech is the prime contractor and sole recipient of the grant, as no set-aside designation was used. As a leading private research university focused on science and engineering, Caltech has a long history of conducting cutting-edge research supported by federal agencies like NASA across a range of space science and technology areas.
