About this award
The University of Illinois has been awarded a $395,524 research grant (Contract 23-EW23-0013) to conduct quantum chemical studies of ice chemistry involving cations and anions in protostellar and protoplanetary disks. The award, issued on June 3, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of June 2, 2027, supports fundamental astrophysical research aimed at understanding the chemical processes occurring in the early stages of star and planet formation. This is a non-competed grant award with no set-aside designation, and work will be performed at the university's Urbana, Illinois campus. The funding originates from a civilian federal agency operating as a Shared Services Center.
This research grant aligns with the National Science Foundation's broader mission to advance fundamental scientific knowledge and discovery. The University of Illinois, a prominent public land-grant research institution with an extensive track record of federal research funding across multiple scientific domains, is well-positioned to execute this specialized astrophysical chemistry research. The university's demonstrated expertise in managing complex research initiatives and collaborative projects, coupled with its access to advanced computational and laboratory resources, makes it an appropriate steward for investigating the molecular-level chemical processes that shape the composition and evolution of protoplanetary systems.
