About this award
This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC23K0413, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), operating through its Office of Research Administration. The $522,224.00 grant is for a research project focused on wave-particle resonant interactions that affect energy and particle losses from the magnetosphere through precipitation, which impacts magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling. This research aligns with NASA's Heliophysics program goals of exploring and characterizing physical processes in the space environment. The award does not have a set-aside designation, and UCLA is serving as the prime contractor without any listed major subcontractors. UCLA is a public research university that frequently supports federal initiatives through its contract and grant awards. This project builds on UCLA's expertise and capabilities in scientific research, with potential relevance to areas like space weather forecasting and the broader study of the Earth's magnetosphere.
Description
Our project focuses on wave-particle resonant interactions that are responsible for copious amounts of energy and particle losses from the magnetosphere through precipitation. Because this precipitation dramatically modifies the ionospheric conductivity and magnetospheric convection, we are addressing one of the most important aspects of the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling. Therefore, our proposal is relevant to the heliophysics overarching goal: "explore and characterize the physical processes in the space environment from the sun to the heliopause and throughout the universe".
