About this award
This is a $881,461 grant for research awarded by the Shared Services Center (a civilian agency) to the Regents of the University of Colorado (CU), a prominent public research university. The research, which is not set aside, focuses on improving understanding of deep solar convection and its implications for the "convective conundrum" in solar physics. Specifically, the work will study the formation of a deep convective layer, analyze the convective power spectrum, and examine the effects of overshooting convection on global-scale magnetic fields. This research is relevant to NASA's Heliophysics Decadal Survey goals and will provide insights applicable to data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory mission and future helioseismic missions. CU has a significant track record of securing federal contract awards and grants across scientific domains, collaborating with other research institutions as needed.
