- This is a $110,656.93 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, a division of the Smithsonian Institution, to conduct a comprehensive study on the interaction of core collapse supernovae (CCSNE) with their dense circumstellar medium (CSM). The study will focus on the processes that destroy and reform dust in the CSM environment, and the manifestations of these processes in the supernova light...
- This is a $100,777 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Smithsonian Institution's Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory for "MULTI CHANNEL, HIGH RESOLUTION MEASUREMENTS OF X RAY EMISSION FOLLOWING DIELECTRONIC RECOMBINATION IN SUPPORT OF HIGH ENERGY X RAY ASTROPHYSICS". The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, a division of the Smithsonian Institution, is a non-profit organization that conducts scientific research and development for NASA...
- This is a $153,214 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Smithsonian Institution, operating through its Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory division, to conduct research on constraining the properties of active galactic nuclei (AGN) coronae using a sample of luminous, high-redshift quasars observed by the NuSTAR (Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array) mission. The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, as a non-profit research...
- This is a $241,963 grant for research awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, a division of the Smithsonian Institution. The grant is for the "XARM RESOLVE SPECTRA OF 1E 0102.2-7219 AND N132D" project, which will likely support the Smithsonian's work in astrophysics, solar physics, exoplanets, planetary atmospheres, and heliophysics. The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory has a...
- This is a $36,613 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Smithsonian Institution's Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory. The grant, titled "DISK DETECTIVE V2.0 IDENTIFYING UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTELLAR DISKS VIA CITIZEN SCIENCE", is for research and is set to run until May 7, 2025. The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory is a non-profit organization that conducts scientific research, instrumentation development, and data...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO), a division of the Smithsonian Institution. The $477,789.73 grant supports two related research projects to explore dust transport and evolution in the interstellar medium within galaxies. The first project aims to improve modeling of how supernova-created dust grains escape their natal ejecta and the hot interior of supernova remnants,...
- The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO), operating as a division of the Smithsonian Institution and located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, has been awarded a $172,405 research grant by a civilian federal agency to execute a balanced science program studying "The Progenitor and Explosion Properties of G292.0+1.8." This competitive award, with no set-aside designation, was issued on February 20, 2025, and is scheduled for completion by February 19, 2027. The grant supports...
- The Smithsonian Institution, operating through its Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory division in Cambridge, Massachusetts, received a $221,642 research grant award with an ultimate completion date of July 31, 2028. This grant, categorized as a non-set-aside award, was issued by a civilian federal agency and represents support for executing a balanced science program informed by discipline-specific guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, administration...
- This is a $1,959,917.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center division of NASA to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) to gain a comprehensive understanding of the global energy budget and energy partitioning in solar eruptive events from the chromosphere to the inner heliosphere. As a leading provider of scientific research, instrumentation development, and data system services to federal agencies, the Smithsonian Institution through its SAO division frequently collaborates...
- This $249,795.91 federal grant was awarded to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, a division of the Smithsonian Institution, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The grant is for the "Confirmation and Characterization of Small TESS Planets 2023" research project, which does not have a set-aside designation. The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory is a non-profit organization that conducts scientific research, instrumentation...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, a division of the Smithsonian Institution, a trust instrumentality of the United States. The grant, valued at $205,125.29, aims to maximize the scientific return from multi-wavelength observations of supernova remnants (SNRs) from core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe). The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory will use its expertise in astrophysics to develop a comprehensive model that connects CCSNe to the dynamics and multi-wavelength emission of SNRs. This work will provide the scientific community with a tool to interpret observations of CCSNe and their remnants, allowing for a better understanding of stellar evolution, progenitor properties, and the physics of supernova shocks. The grant does not have a set-aside designation and is set to be completed by October 19, 2022.
