- This is a $450,000.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the Trustees of Boston University, a private non-profit educational institution, for a research project titled "VLBA Monitoring of Gamma-Ray Bright Blazars at 7 mm". The project aims to monitor the jets of 35 active galactic nuclei using monthly 7 mm Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations to relate events in the compact jets to gamma-ray, millimeter-wave, optical, and X-ray...
- This federal contract award is for $449,993.31 and was granted to Trustees of Boston University, a private university located in Boston, Massachusetts. The contract is for the continuation of a comprehensive multi-waveband flux and polarization monitoring program, involving monthly Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) imaging of 33 radio and gamma-ray bright active galactic nuclei at 43 and 86 GHz. This research is being conducted for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The...
- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Boston University, a private university located in Boston, Massachusetts. The $75,000.00 grant will fund a research project to monitor 4-band (BVRI) optical linear polarization and flux of 55 gamma-ray active galactic nuclei (AGN) over 8-10 nights per month at the 1.83m Perkins Telescope in Flagstaff, Arizona. The goal is to build a database of polarization behavior during...
