About this award
Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a prominent nonprofit research and development organization headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, has been awarded a $1.36M research grant by a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center. The grant, titled "Magnetic Influence on Differential Rotation Throughout the Solar Interior," will be performed at SwRI's San Antonio, TX facility and is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2026. This research initiative, funded through a grant mechanism rather than a traditional contract, supports fundamental scientific investigation into solar physics and heliospheric phenomena. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, indicating it was competed through a full and open procurement process.
The award represents SwRI's continued engagement in space science and solar research, areas central to the organization's federal grant portfolio. SwRI has demonstrated substantial capabilities in heliophysics research through previous NASA Science Mission Directorate grants focusing on solar dynamics, magnetic fields, and related phenomena. This project aligns with the institute's multidisciplinary research strengths and its established track record of conducting advanced scientific research for civilian space agencies. The work will contribute to expanding knowledge of solar magnetic field behavior and its effects on the sun's internal structure, supporting broader heliophysical science objectives.
