About this award
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Drexel University, a private research university in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The grant, with a ceiling value of $14,529, is for a research project titled "Comparison of X Ray and Optical UV Eddington Ratio Estimates in Quasars." The project will involve studying the properties of quasars, which are extremely luminous active galactic nuclei, by comparing different methods of estimating their Eddington ratios, a measure of the accretion rate of material onto the supermassive black hole at the center of the quasar. This grant does not have a set-aside designation, indicating that Drexel University competed for the award in the open market. The award date is January 1, 2024, and the ultimate completion date is December 31, 2025. Drexel University has a long history of receiving federal funding, including contracts and grants from various agencies such as the Department of Defense, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Science Foundation, for a wide range of research and educational initiatives.
