About this award
The University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) was awarded a $172,531.64 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center with a completion date of March 1, 2025. This civilian agency grant supports astrophysical research investigating the origins of ionizing flux in nearby high-ionization galaxies. The research will account for all ionizing emission from O/WR stars, X-ray binaries (XRBs), and fast shocks to better understand the sources responsible for heating and reionizing the early universe. The award carries no small business set-aside designation and is structured as a grant for research with performance conducted in Baltimore, Maryland.
UMBC, a constituent institution of the University System of Maryland, brings substantial experience in astrophysics research to this initiative, with prior federal funding supporting investigations into active galactic nuclei, X-ray observations, and other advanced astronomical studies. The research aligns with NASA's broader scientific objectives in understanding fundamental cosmological processes and the evolution of galaxies across cosmic time. As a comprehensive research university with established capabilities in interdisciplinary scientific research, UMBC is positioned to deliver the specialized astrophysical analysis and observations required to advance understanding of the ionizing radiation environment in these high-redshift systems.
Description
By accounting for all the ionizing emission from o/WR STARS, xrbs and fast shocks, we will explore the origin of the ionizing flux in these nearby high-ionization galaxies, particularly those responsible for heating and reionizing the early universe.
