About this award
The U.S. government has awarded a $124,998 research grant to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) for a project titled "Non-Substorm Energy Transfer and Reconnection Onset in the Near Magnetotail." The award, issued February 1, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2027, supports scientific research in heliophysics and space weather phenomena. SwRI, a prominent nonprofit research and development organization headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, will conduct this work at its San Antonio facility. The funding agency is identified as a Shared Services Center civilian entity. No set-aside designation applies to this award, reflecting SwRI's competitive strength in full and open federal procurement competitions.
This grant falls within SwRI's extensive portfolio of federal research awards primarily supported through NASA's Science Mission Directorate and other civilian agencies including the National Science Foundation and Department of Energy. The research topic addresses fundamental questions regarding magnetic reconnection processes and energy transfer in the magnetotail region near Earth, contributing to the scientific understanding of space weather and solar-terrestrial interactions. SwRI maintains a strong track record as a prime grantee on similar heliophysics research initiatives, frequently collaborating with academic institutions and other research organizations to advance space science investigations and instrument technology development.
