About this award
This is a $334,036 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Pittsburgh to conduct research on the formation of galaxies in the cold dark matter paradigm. The grant will fund research into the processes of gravitational collapse of dark matter and gas that lead to galaxy formation, and how galaxies contain fewer baryons than their cosmic share. The research aims to provide a solution to this scientific puzzle through the process of feedback. This grant was not set aside for any particular category of contractor. The University of Pittsburgh is the prime recipient of this federal research grant.
Description
