About this award
This federal contract award, with an ID of 80NSSC23K1473, was granted by the Shared Services Center to the University of Arizona for a project titled "Securing Revolutionary Exozodi Research with VLTI/NOTT". The $790,672 grant will fund the university's efforts to leverage the ongoing development of the Nulling Observations of Exoplanets and Dust (NOTT) instrument for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) to study exozodiacal dust. The university will form a science team to maximize NOTT's capabilities for exozodi observations, contribute to the instrument's commissioning and science verification, and execute a mini-survey. This research will critically inform the design of future missions like the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO). The contract does not have a set-aside designation and is a grant for research. The University of Arizona, a public research university in Tucson, Arizona, is the prime contractor and will be the lead on this project.
