The prime contractor, Columbia University, will conduct the research from its facilities in New York, New York over a four-year period starting September 1, 2020 through August 31, 2024. The grant was awarded as a...
- This is a $100,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, doing business as Columbia University, for a research project titled "IF YOU GAZE INTO THE VOID, MAGNETIC FIELDS GAZE BACK: TURBULENT MAGNETOGENESIS IN COSMIC VOIDS". The contract was awarded on January 1, 2025, with a period of performance through December 31, 2026. This grant is not associated with a set-aside program and...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $41,919.02 grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University through its Sponsored Projects Administration Division. The grant, identified as Federal Contract Award ID 80NSSC19K1461, supports research to continue timing observations of the compact central object (CCO) 1E 1207.4-5209, which has exhibited an unexpected glitch in its spin. This research may provide insights...
- This federal contract award, valued at $664,961.55, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University through its Sponsored Projects Administration Division. The contract is focused on advancing the understanding of how diffuse atomic clouds transition to diffuse molecular clouds, which is an important first step in the star formation process. The key objectives are to improve...
- This is a $389,844 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York. The grant will fund a research project to realistically model the voluminous set of archival X-ray Multi-Mirror (XMM-Newton) and Neutron-star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) spectroscopic and timing observations. The award does not have a set-aside designation. Columbia University, a private university and non-profit research...
- This is a $79,993.45 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University, to conduct research on "superluminous supernovae" - stellar explosions with peak luminosities too high to be powered by traditional energy sources. The research aims to investigate the possible role of a millisecond magnetar engine in powering these events. The award is not associated with a...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $30,000 grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York (Columbia University) to support research titled "Investigating the Origin of Xray Emission from the Exotic Be Stripped B Star Binary HR 6819." The grant has a completion date of January 1, 2025 and was awarded on January 2, 2024 without a set-aside designation. Columbia University will conduct the requested research under the grant to...
- This federal contract award to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University, provides $66,221.89 in grant funding for research on a neutron star ultra-compact X-ray binary with the shortest known orbital period. The award is for work to be completed by December 31, 2023 and was made on June 22, 2022 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The award does not utilize a set-aside designation. Columbia University is a renowned...
This federal contract award to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University, has the goal of developing theoretical models and observational diagnostics to understand the emergence of the first generation of stars and supermassive black holes in the universe, as well as the physical feedback processes that determined their evolution and the early stages of cosmic reionization. The $411,804.76 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), will fund high-resolution simulations, analytical models, and semi-numerical simulations to study the cooling, contraction, and fragmentation of gas in the earliest dark matter halos, while also developing observational tests to distinguish between competing theoretical models. This work directly supports NASA's strategic goal to discover the origin, structure, and evolution of the universe, and will contribute to the interpretation of future data from space-borne instruments. The contract has an ultimate completion date of November 27, 2020 and is not designated as a set-aside.
