About this award
This is a $37,500 federal grant award from NASA's Shared Services Center to Eureka Scientific, Inc., a small disadvantaged business based in Piedmont, California. The grant is for research on modeling the spectra of low-mass X-ray binary neutron stars, leveraging data from NASA's NICER X-ray telescope. Eureka Scientific will provide research services including data analysis and paper writing related to observations from space telescopes like Chandra, XMM-Newton, NuSTAR, and Swift. This award aligns with NASA's strategic goals in astrophysics and is part of the agency's broader efforts to advance scientific understanding of cosmic phenomena like black holes, transient events, and the chemical composition of the Milky Way. The contract does not have a set-aside designation and is not associated with a larger contract vehicle.
Description
The modeling of neutron-star low-mass X-RAY binary spectra often suffers from a lack of coverage at either the low or high energy end. Nicer spectra offer great low-energy coverage, with the potential to obtain excellent constraints on the thermal
