About this award

The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $748,927 research grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Shared Services Center on February 1, 2024, for a project titled "On the Tail-Inner Magnetosphere Connection of Dipolarizations and Particle Injections." The work will be performed in Baltimore, Maryland, with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2027. This non-set-aside grant supports scientific research investigating the complex interactions between the magnetospheric tail region and the inner magnetosphere, focusing on understanding dipolarization events and associated particle injection phenomena—research that contributes to NASA's broader efforts in magnetospheric science and space physics.

Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory and broader research enterprise regularly support NASA and other federal agencies in advancing space exploration, national security, and scientific discovery. The university's strong track record in managing complex federal research awards, combined with its interdisciplinary research capabilities, positions it well to conduct sophisticated investigations into magnetospheric processes that enhance understanding of Earth's magnetic environment and space weather phenomena.
