- This is a $298,433.31 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU) to conduct a study on nanoprecipitates within meteoritic metals as tracers of early solar system processes. The proposed research aims to use transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and micro-particle-induced X-ray emission (micro-PIXE) techniques to characterize the nanoscale phase petrology of metal systems in iron meteorites and metal-rich breccias. This...
- This is a $1,953,008 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU) to conduct research on the early history of the solar system. The objective is to better understand processes in the solar nebula and on planetesimals through investigations of radiogenic isotope systematics, stable isotope systematics, and trace element geochemistry of primitive and differentiated meteorites. The research addresses NASA's Emerging Worlds program goals...
- This is a $526,000.00 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University to study the influence of debris released by giant impacts on the late formation and evolution of the inner solar system. The research will use dynamical methods and results of impact simulations to understand how debris from large impacts on the terrestrial planets, such as the Moon-forming impact on Earth, may have played an important role in the evolution of...
- This is a $292,094 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct research on shock metamorphism in meteorites. The research aims to better understand the conditions of planetary impacts, the resetting of isotope geochronometers, and the dynamics of the solar system by analyzing shock effects in feldspar minerals found in ordinary chondrites and Martian meteorites. The experiments...
- NASA awarded a $377,452 grant to the University of New Mexico (UNM) to investigate the early history of the solar system. The research will focus on analyzing primitive meteorites, conducting experiments to reproduce early solar system processes, and performing isotopic analyses of samples. The grant supports three primary tasks: 1) a petrologic study of refractory inclusions in low-grade carbonaceous chondrites and an investigation of the effects of metamorphism on chondrite parent bodies, 2)...
- This is a $1,044,966.98 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, a public research university, to conduct research on refractory dust, which provides clues about the formation of our solar system. The research involves detailed microscopic and computational analyses of meteoritic components, such as calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions and circumstellar grains, to understand their thermodynamic origins and the pressure-temperature...
- This is a $381,274 grant awarded by NASA to Arizona State University (ASU) to conduct a multifaceted study of lunar meteorites using incremental heating and ultraviolet laser ablation microprobe (UVLAMP) 40Ar/39Ar geochronology. The goal is to improve the understanding of the lunar impact history, which is a high priority for NASA's solar system research program. This will be the first extensive UVLAMP study of lunar meteorite samples, which can provide valuable age information to complement...
- This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University for research on impact cratering across the solar system, including on Earth and the Moon. The $135,000.00 grant is for a research project with a completion date of August 31, 2024. The award was made on September 1, 2021 and does not have a set-aside designation. Arizona State University, a comprehensive public research university, is the prime recipient of this federal...
- This is a $1,289,957.12 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona for a research project titled "Origins of Refractory Material in Stellar Systems from an Atomistic to a Macroscale Perspective." The grant is part of NASA's Emerging Worlds program, which supports research aimed at understanding the formation and early evolution of the solar system. The project will use a multifaceted approach integrating nanoscale analytical...
