- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) received a $386,035 grant from NASA's Shared Services Center for research titled "Ten-Year NEOWISE+WISE Lightcurves of Young Stellar Objects: Obscured Accretion Outbursts and Long-Term Variability." The work, which commenced on March 1, 2023, will be performed in Pasadena, California, with an ultimate completion date of February 28, 2027. This grant is not subject to any set-aside designation and represents Caltech's continued...
- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) received a $451,868 research grant from the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency administrative arm for NASA, with performance in Pasadena, California. The award, effective January 1, 2025, and completing December 31, 2027, supports execution of a balanced science program aligned with guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and congressional direction. Caltech will serve as a key partner in NASA's...
- 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 $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 $75,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for a research project aimed at probing the structure of planetary systems and its dependency on the host star mass. The goal is to continue the characterization of Kepler planet host stars, extending it to lower-mass systems, to explore different irradiation environments and address the radius-flux distribution of planets as a function of stellar...
- This is a $22,553.31 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to support research investigating pulsation transience in the binary X-ray source SMC X-1 during its superorbital period excursion. The grant, which has a period of performance through September 7, 2022, does not have a set-aside designation. Caltech is a private research university with extensive experience supporting NASA and Department of Defense...
- This is a $74,384.08 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for a 100 kilosecond (100 ks) NuSTAR observation of the ultraluminous X-ray source Circinus ULX5. The goal is to search for transient pulsations, which would help definitively classify the compact object as a neutron star. The award does not have a set-aside designation and is a research grant with a completion date of April 11, 2023. Caltech is a...
- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) has been awarded a $732,689 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center with a completion date of May 19, 2028. This grant supports Caltech's participation in the Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) funding program, which advances balanced scientific research aligned with guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. The award positions Caltech as a key partner in NASA's exploration...
- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) was awarded a $70,371 research grant by the Shared Services Center (the administrative arm for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026. This civilian research grant supports the execution of a balanced science program guided by discipline-specific recommendations from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, administration priorities, and congressional...
- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) was awarded a $359,894 research grant by the Shared Services Center (the administrative arm for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) on November 22, 2023, to support research on "The Astrophysics of Ultra-Compact White Dwarf Binaries: The Synergy of Gravitational Wave and Electromagnetic Observations." The contract, designated 22-LPS22-0026, runs through November 21, 2026, and will be performed at Caltech's Pasadena,...
California Institute of Technology (Caltech) has been awarded a $65,787 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to measure the x-ray spectra of four young, active stars hosting small (less than 3.5 Earth radii) planets. The goal of the program is to obtain more accurate measurements of the x-ray luminosity from the stars' ages. Work will be performed in Pasadena, California with a completion date of February 28, 2025. As a private research university focused on science and engineering, Caltech frequently receives funding from NASA and other government agencies to conduct scientific research in areas aligned with their missions such as exoplanet discovery, astrophysics, and materials science.
