About this award
The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) received a $386,035 grant from NASA's Shared Services Center for research titled "Ten-Year NEOWISE+WISE Lightcurves of Young Stellar Objects: Obscured Accretion Outbursts and Long-Term Variability." The work, which commenced on March 1, 2023, will be performed in Pasadena, California, with an ultimate completion date of February 28, 2027. This grant is not subject to any set-aside designation and represents Caltech's continued partnership with NASA in advancing astronomical research capabilities through analysis of infrared survey data.
The research initiative leverages data from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) and Near-Earth Object WISE (NEOWISE) missions to conduct a comprehensive ten-year analysis of young stellar objects, with particular emphasis on characterizing obscured accretion outbursts and documenting long-term variability patterns. This work aligns with NASA Science Mission Directorate priorities for maximizing the scientific return from existing space-based infrared assets and contributes to the broader understanding of stellar formation and early-stage stellar evolution, complementing Caltech's substantial portfolio of astrophysics research supported through federal funding.
