About this award
This is a $825,000.00 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). The contract is for studying "Magnetic Flux Ropes and Magnetic Loops in Earth's Plasma Sheet: Their Properties and Role in Particle Energization". This research aims to advance the scientific understanding of Earth's plasma environment and processes that contribute to particle energization. The contract does not have a set-aside designation, indicating it was awarded through open competition based on technical merit. UC Berkeley is the prime contractor and is performing the research using its expertise in space physics and plasma science. The grant has an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2027. UC Berkeley holds an $8.92 million Other Transaction (OT) Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) for developing advanced simulation capabilities, which may be leveraged to support aspects of this research.
