About this award
This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC22K0674, was granted by the Shared Services Center (a division of NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) for the detection and study of exoplanets and their exposure to stellar radiation and wind. The $268,899.51 grant is a research contract and does not have a set-aside designation, indicating open competition.
UC Berkeley, as the prime contractor, will leverage its expertise in space physics, astronomy, and advanced simulation capabilities to conduct this research project. The award is associated with a larger $8.92 million Other Transaction (OT) Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), titled "Transfer from Imprecise and Abstract Models to Autonomous Technologies (TIAMAT)". This IDV aims to provide research services for developing advanced simulation capabilities using machine learning to model interactions at the nanoscale within the terahertz portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The University of California, as the parent organization of UC Berkeley, has a history of securing both federal contracts and grants across a wide range of scientific disciplines, including space exploration, quantum computing, and national security-related research.
Description
Detection of over 4700 exoplanets suggests that close-in, rocky exoplanets of magnetically active G, K and M dwarfs should be exposed to high stellar coronal X-RAY and extreme ultraviolet (XUV) and large stellar wind mass fluxes.
