About this award

This is a $450,000.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the Trustees of Boston University, a private non-profit educational institution, for a research project titled "VLBA Monitoring of Gamma-Ray Bright Blazars at 7 mm". The project aims to monitor the jets of 35 active galactic nuclei using monthly 7 mm Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations to relate events in the compact jets to gamma-ray, millimeter-wave, optical, and X-ray variability, as well as very high-energy neutrino detections. The research is intended to provide crucial physical parameters for modeling high-energy emission from blazars. This grant award is not designated as a set-aside contract. The project will be performed in Boston, Massachusetts and has an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026.
