- This is a $435,791.99 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), a private research university. The grant will fund the analysis of exquisite stellar and planetary data collected by the Kepler spacecraft's K2 extended mission for the Upper Scorpius star-forming region, which represents a key evolutionary stage between very young and older star clusters. The primary objectives are to determine stellar...
- This $100,000 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was awarded to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to search for transiting planets orbiting FGK dwarf stars in the K2 fields. The project has two objectives: 1) to measure variations in the occurrence rate of planets as a function of sky position, sampling different star formation environments and stellar densities, and 2) to discover small planets suitable for high-precision Doppler spectroscopy to...
- This is a $473,985.71 grant awarded by NASA to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to collect and organize data from NASA's major observatories and survey missions on young stars and star-forming regions. The award is part of NASA's Star and Planet Formation Science program and will involve aggregating relevant photometric and spectroscopic data to serve it in a searchable format. Caltech is a private research university with extensive experience supporting NASA and Department of...
- This is a $247,652 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to support collaborative research and development activities related to the K2 mission, which is a follow-up program to the Kepler mission focused on measuring precise planet masses and characterizing planet host stars. The award does not have a set-aside designation. Caltech, a private research university, is the prime contractor and is leveraging...
- This is a $425,562.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for a research project titled "Laying the Foundation for a Comprehensive View of Transiting Exoplanets with the Galactic Bulge Survey". The award does not have a set-aside designation. Caltech, a private research university focused on science and engineering, will perform the research work under this grant, which aims to expand the...
- This is a $398,685.53 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct research related to the "origin of stars that make up our universe." The grant, which has a performance period ending on May 18, 2023, aligns with one of the goals outlined in NASA's 2014 Science Plan. Caltech, a private research university focused on science and engineering, has received over $500 million in prime federal...
- This is a $386,035 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct a ten-year study of the long-term variability of young stellar objects using data from the NEOWISE and WISE space telescopes. The grant supports research into obscured accretion outbursts and other long-term luminosity changes among young stars, which can provide insights into the formation and early evolution of planetary systems. Caltech is...
- This is a $103,000 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to develop a theory reconciling disk-driven migration with spin-orbit misalignments in extrasolar planetary systems. The research aims to understand how companion stars can gravitationally torque protoplanetary disks out of alignment with their host stars, resulting in misaligned planetary orbits. The three-year project will involve theoretical...
