- This $41,276.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to continue a successful program of follow-up observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). The program aims to provide rapid and accurate localizations, photometric redshifts, and multi-color afterglow observations of these high-energy GRB events, which have opened up new realms of study from GRB physics to theories...
- This is a $68,000 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to continue research on gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their central engines. The grant is part of a larger research program focused on understanding the physics of GRBs and their implications for theories of quantum gravity and constraints on the extragalactic background light. The award does not have a set-aside designation. As a state-controlled...
- This is a $59,629 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to continue research on gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their implications for physics, including theories of quantum gravity and constraints on the extragalactic background light. The grant, which runs from February 1, 2021 to January 31, 2024, does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Maryland, College Park is a state-controlled institution of...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park for a project titled "Rapid Follow-Up of Fermi LAT Gamma-Ray Bursts." The grant, valued at $85,780.00, is funding research and observations to support the study of high-energy gamma-ray bursts detected by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The project aims to provide rapid and accurate localizations, photometric redshifts,...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) for $116,879.00. The grant supports research to search for gamma-ray burst (GRB) events similar to GRB 170817A, which is the only confirmed counterpart to a binary neutron star (BNS) merger detected to date. The goal is to better understand the physics linking BNS mergers to short GRBs, using data from the Burst and Transient Source...
- This is a $436,539 grant awarded by NASA to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York for research on the impact of nucleosynthesis on accretion disks, outflows, and observable signatures associated with the merger of binary compact objects and the central engines of gamma-ray bursts and supernovae. The research program will investigate rapid accretion following the tidal disruption of a white dwarf by a neutron star or black hole, as well as the long-term evolution of...
- This is a $37,439.76 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) for a research project on the time-domain variability analysis of 117 blazars (active galactic nuclei) in the Swift-BAT 105-month catalog. The award does not have a set-aside designation. As a major public research university, UMD has a long history of receiving federal grants and contracts from agencies like NASA, the National Science...
- This is a $71,536.99 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) for two searches of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) data for sub-threshold short gamma-ray bursts. The grant runs from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2023 and does not have a set-aside designation. UAH is a public research university that frequently supports NASA's mission through federal contracts and grants, particularly in areas like space...
- The Pennsylvania State University received a $522.5K research grant (24-ADAP24-0080) from a civilian federal agency to support astronomical research examining gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) through collaborative analysis of data from NASA's Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) and Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) instruments. The project, titled "By Their Powers Combined: Swift-BAT and Fermi-GBM Unveil Thousands of New GRBs," will be conducted at Penn State's University Park campus and is...
- This federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Oregon State University, a public research university located in Corvallis, Oregon. The $432,020.70 grant is funding a comprehensive study to improve the understanding of the physics of short-duration gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) in the multi-messenger era, which encompasses the simultaneous detection of gravitational waves, electromagnetic, and possibly neutrino signals. The research...
