This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA), a non-profit organization. The $353,295.16 grant is for research to understand whether the "nanoflare hypothesis" can explain coronal heating, by analyzing new high-quality data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and using modeling to identify and correct for systematic effects. The research aims to determine the distribution of small-scale energetic events on the Sun and whether they deliver more or less power to the corona than solar flares. This grant does not have a set-aside designation, and was awarded on August 29, 2017 with a completion date of November 20, 2020.
