- This is a $313,439.68 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to investigate the physical processes responsible for generating the magnetic fields, atmospheric circulations, and thermal emission patterns of the ice giants (such as Uranus and Neptune). The goal is to test the hypothesis that the dynamos and zonal winds are dynamically coupled and are a consequence of quasi-three-dimensional turbulence in the...
- This is a $134,999.99 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin, a public research university. The grant will fund research on atmospheric retrieval, which is the only method for determining the properties of exoplanet atmospheres since in-situ measurements are not possible at astronomical distances. The University of Texas at Austin is the prime grantee on this award and is not a set-aside contract. The University of...
- This is a $37,590.42 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to study the Earth's orientation parameters, including the length-of-day and rotation axis position. The grant supports long-term observational records of these Earth system characteristics, which can change over sub-daily to decadal timescales. As a public research university, UT Austin has an extensive track record of federal contract and grant awards,...
- This is a $99,908.57 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to conduct research on exoplanets. The research aims to study the dramatic changes that occur in the orbital, radius, and atmospheric properties of exoplanets in the first few hundred million years after their formation. This is a crucial period for evaluating models of exoplanet evolution, such as migration. The grant is a research contract with a...
- The University of Texas at Austin was awarded a $38,279 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for the COMETS: CLUES TO CONDITIONS IN THE EARLY SOLAR NEBULA research project. This grant, with a period of performance through May 2026, supports the university's research into conditions in the early solar system. The University of Texas System, which includes UT Austin, has an extensive track record of receiving both federal contracts and grants for research across...
- This is a $396,408 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin System, specifically the University of Wisconsin - Madison, to investigate changes in the circulation, cloud structure, and methane distribution in the atmosphere of the planet Uranus. The research aims to better understand seasonal changes in this ice giant planet, which is relevant to the study of exoplanets. The grant will support ground-based astronomical observations...
- This is a $135,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin, a major research institution and component of the University of Texas System. The primary goal of the program is to determine the frequency of Jovian-size planets (0.3 - 10 Jupiter masses) within 2.5 astronomical units around single, young, Sun-like stars. This research grant, which runs from September 1, 2020 to January 31, 2024, does not have a small business or...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $150,000.00 grant to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to investigate the influences of urbanization on extreme precipitation globally using different satellite and reanalysis precipitation products. This is a research grant that runs through August 31, 2025. UT Austin is the prime grantee on this effort and the University of Texas System is the parent organization. This grant does not have a set-aside...
- The University of Wisconsin-Madison will conduct atmospheric research of Uranus under a $437,447 grant from NASA. The university's Research and Sponsored Programs division, operating on behalf of the University of Wisconsin System, was awarded the prime contract to analyze striking asymmetries in Uranus' atmosphere that became evident following its 2007 equinox. Near-infrared adaptive optics images from 2011-2017 revealed numerous small, bright cloud features in the north polar region but none...
- This is a $52,989 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) for the "E014042 - CONFIRMATION OF TESS GIANT PLANETS" project. The grant is for research and will be performed in Austin, Texas. The University of Texas System, the parent organization of UT Austin, frequently receives federal research grants and contracts across a wide range of scientific and technical domains,...
