- The University of California, Santa Cruz received a $5.01 million research grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) with a completion date of April 30, 2026. This grant supports an interdisciplinary research program investigating the formation, evolution, and characterization of planetary atmospheres around other stars, with particular focus on understanding volatile element pathways from star-forming clouds through protoplanetary disks to planets. The research...
- This is a $503,870 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to study the patterns of moderately volatile element depletion in the silicate portions of planetary bodies. The research aims to investigate whether volatile loss from partially molten planetesimals can explain the observed elemental depletion patterns and whether conventional or "Grand Tack" accretion models are more consistent with the data....
- The University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) received a $333,766.66 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct a systematic study on the atmospheric hazes and thermal structures of Pluto, Triton, and Titan. The research aims to investigate how hydrocarbon haze particles influence the radiative heating and cooling of these low-gravity icy bodies. UCSC will use microphysical models and thermal structure models to predict the distribution of haze particles and...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $199,971.41 grant to the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) to support research on asteroidal meteorites and their implications for exoplanet atmospheres and early planetary formation. Specifically, the grant will fund the establishment of cosmochemistry and scanning electron microscope laboratories at UCSC to conduct experiments constraining the timing of fluid activity in early planetesimals and the initial abundance of...
- This is a $86,567.24 federal grant award to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to conduct research on the roles of organic compounds produced by photolysis and radiolysis in various physical and chemical processes on Titan, Saturn's largest moon. The grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on March 1, 2022, with a performance period ending on January 16, 2024. UCSC, a public research university and Hispanic-Serving Institution, frequently...
- NASA awarded a $86,000.00 grant to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to conduct research on the hydrodynamics of planetary engulfment. This grant is a research contract that has no set-aside designation. UCSC is a public research university that has a history of receiving federal awards from agencies such as the Department of the Navy, Department of Agriculture, and National Science Foundation to support scientific research, training, and education programs. The State of California...
- This $35,989.83 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was made to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to support the "A NICER VIEW OF RARE AND EXTREME BLACK HOLE TRANSIENT ACCRETION EVENTS" research project. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, is for a period of research and exploration into rare and extreme black hole phenomena using NASA's Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) mission. As a leading...
- This is a $559,333 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) for a research project titled "DECODING THE PHYSICS OF COSMOLOGICAL STRUCTURE FORMATION FROM THE INTERGALACTIC MEDIUM".
