- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Northwest Research Associates, Inc. (NWRA) to investigate and understand the lifecycle of the solar magnetic field. The grant, valued at $145,785.00, supports the use of data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) mission's Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) instrument to model the propagation of solar eruptions and their effects on Earth and space-based assets. The grant aims to better...
- This is a $160,962.24 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) to conduct research on turbulence and intermittency in solar wind. The project aims to develop analytical theories on these phenomena and test them against simulations and solar wind observations. This research is relevant to the Heliophysics Decadal Survey objectives to understand fundamental processes within the heliosphere. The award does not have a...
- This is a $213,668.74 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, a division of the Smithsonian Institution, a trust instrumentality of the United States. The grant supports research to investigate the stability of magnetic flux ropes in the solar corona, which is fundamental to understanding solar activity and space weather events. The project uses a combination of solar observations, nonlinear force-free field...
- This is a $135,000.00 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Boston University, a private university located in Boston, Massachusetts. The grant supports research that directly responds to two of the four survey goals of the most recent Heliophysics Decadal Survey: 1) determining the interaction of the Sun with the solar system and the interstellar medium and 2) discovering and characterizing fundamental processes that occur both...
- This is a $143,551.05 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Space Science Institute, a nonprofit research organization based in Boulder, Colorado. The goal of the project is to develop an adaptive hybrid computational model that combines kinetic ion and fluid electron descriptions to enable more detailed simulations of turbulent solar wind conditions and their impacts on the Earth's magnetosphere. The model will be integrated with global...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center awarded a $314,538 grant to Advanced Heliophysics, a non-profit research organization, to conduct research associating different types of solar wind flows with their regions of origin on the sun and exploring how rigidly and non-rigidly rotating coronal holes contribute to solar wind. The grant, which runs from September 2020 through September 2023, supports Advanced Heliophysics' efforts to precisely characterize...
- This is a federal grant award to The Trustees of Princeton University, acting through its Office of Research and Project Administration, for a research project focused on understanding the turbulent nature of the solar wind and its impact on plasma physics. The $427,593.66 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), aims to accomplish several science goals, including determining the mechanisms responsible for perpendicular heating of solar wind ions, examining...
