- This $134,813.42 research grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning, to study the origin of the sun's magnetism. The research is focused on observing highly regular patterns of magnetic activity on the solar disk, which is one of the most pressing outstanding problems in astrophysics. The grant was awarded on September 1, 2019 and is scheduled for completion on...
- This is a $592,566.71 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado (CU) to conduct research on the dynamics and coupling of the Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and atmosphere. The research aims to delineate and understand how complexity in the form of time-varying longitude structures is introduced into the ionosphere through lower atmosphere coupling, the longitude-dependent magnetic field, and time-varying solar flux. The data to be...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Space Science Institute, a nonprofit organization based in Boulder, Colorado. The $853,214.00 grant is for a research project investigating how ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves in the Earth's magnetosphere-ionosphere system couple to generate geoelectric field variations relevant to geomagnetically induced currents (GICs). The research aims to better understand the spatial and...
- This $98,588.98 federal grant award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of Colorado, acting through its Office of Contracts and Grants, to conduct research on magnetic reconnection processes in the Earth's magnetotail. The University of Colorado, an accredited public research institution, will use this funding to study the rapid transport of magnetic flux and plasma towards and away from the Earth, as observed by satellite...
- The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, received a $614,573.66 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the importance of including low-frequency hiss, exohiss, and plasmapause-organized hiss in predictive modeling of electron dynamics in the inner magnetosphere. The research aims to quantify the impact of these "missing" aspects of hiss physics...
- This is a $314,540 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado, for the design, build, and testing of a magnetometer instrumentation package for space applications. The goal is to decrease the volume, mass, and power requirements of the magnetometer. The grant is part of NASA's Space Physics Research and Analysis Program and was awarded without any set-aside designations....
- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division. The $906,946.01 grant, awarded on September 12, 2017, is for investigating the effects of stochastic (diffusive) transport processes versus coherent interactions of energetic particles with large-scale magnetospheric disturbances. The research aims to expand scientific...
- This federal contract award to The Regents of the University of Colorado (University of Colorado) is a $104,999.98 training grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on planetary magnetic fields. The objective is to utilize reduced magnetohydrodynamic models to simulate dynamo action and gain insights into the interior dynamics of planets with extreme parameter values that are difficult to fully resolve through direct numerical simulations. Key goals...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $102,448.48 training grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division. This contract, which does not have a set-aside designation, is focused on providing the first satellite identification of ocean circulation temporal magnetic field variations and estimating ocean transport from satellite magnetic data. This work aims to develop an...
- This is a $395,773.83 grant awarded by NASA to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, a public research university. The purpose of the grant is to characterize changes in the neutral atmosphere during geomagnetic storms in order to improve the modeling of ion-neutral interactions in the topside ionosphere. This research supports NASA's Living With a Star (LWS) program goals of developing the scientific...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $436,837.23 grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to conduct research on developing a new data-based model of the Earth's magnetospheric field. The goal is to better separate the internal geomagnetic field from external fluctuations, in order to study rapid variations in the Earth's core field and improve understanding of deep Earth dynamics. This fundamental research will use a combination of satellite and ground observatory data to capture the time-varying longitudinal asymmetry of the magnetospheric ring and tail currents, which is expected to overlap with rapid core field variations. The award has a completion date of January 24, 2023 and was not set aside for any specific business category.
