- This is a $1,481,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) to design, build, deploy, and publish the scientific results of a second generation of the Extreme Universe Space Observatory (EUSO) to be flown aboard a super-pressure balloon (SPB). The EUSO-SPB2 instrument will monitor the night sky of the Southern Hemisphere to study cosmic rays of very high to ultrahigh energies and pioneer the search for...
- This $268,932 federal grant was awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines to develop a comprehensive simulation package for measuring cosmic neutrinos from sub-orbital and space-based observations. The goal is to provide an efficient model to gauge the neutrino measurement performance of experiments like ANITA, EVA, EUSO-SPB2, and the POEMMA astrophysics probe. The simulation will cover neutrino interactions, tau lepton propagation, air shower...
- This federal contract award to the University of Chicago supports the design, build, deployment, and publication of scientific results for the second generation Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super-Pressure Balloon (EUSO-SPB2). The $1,851,031 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), will fund research to study cosmic rays and neutrinos using Cherenkov and fluorescence observation techniques. EUSO-SPB2 is a pathfinder effort for the potential future...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Research Foundation of the City University of New York (RFCUNY) on behalf of Lehman College. The $514,051.61 grant supports Lehman College's role as a co-investigator on the Extreme Universe Space Observatory Super-Pressure Balloon 2 (EUSO-SPB2) project, which is led by the University of Chicago. The EUSO-SPB2 project aims to design, build, deploy, and publish scientific results from a second-generation...
- The University of Chicago was awarded a $3,751,394.00 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for the EUSO-SPB2 (Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon 2nd Generation) project. The grant, awarded on August 1, 2022, has an ultimate completion date of July 31, 2026. The project involves research and development activities from flight to science results for the second-generation Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon....
- This is a $3,256,304.08 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Colorado for research related to understanding the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation output of nearby stars and its impact on exoplanet atmospheres. The grant will fund two additional flights of the Dual-channel Extreme Ultraviolet Continuum Experiment (DEUCE) payload to (1) complete an ionizing radiation census of local B-stars and (2) obtain the first EUV spectra of the nearest main-sequence stars, including potential...
- This is a four-year, $2,749,735.61 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado (CU) to conduct an extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) spectrophotometry investigation of nearby B-stars. The research aims to provide insights into the reionization of the early universe by making critical observations in the 700-900 Angstrom waveband, which has never been observed for B-stars. The project will develop a sounding rocket payload called DEUCE...
- This is a $1,292,157.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado, to develop and flight-qualify the instrument designs and components required to support NASA's ambitious space instrumentation objectives over the next decade. The five-year suborbital research program will utilize the University's expertise in physics, materials science, and aerospace engineering to...
- This is a $2,315,204.58 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Princeton University, through its Office of Research and Project Administration, to develop and fly a diffraction-limited imaging instrument on a mid-latitude super-pressure balloon platform. The instrument will have a half-degree field of view and 0.3-arcsecond resolution, enabling transformative research in areas like exoplanet detection and weak gravitational lensing of galaxy clusters. The...
- The Regents of the University of Colorado was awarded a $361,599.67 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop advanced ultraviolet spectrograph designs for future space astronomy missions. The goal is to create holographically corrected echelle grating designs that can provide enhanced sensitivity, resolution, and multi-object capabilities compared to current state-of-the-art instruments. This work will support the design of ultraviolet spectrographs...
