The grant is a civilian award with a performance period from February 14, 2020 to February 13, 2024....
- This is a $320,825.77 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, a public research university located in Tucson, Arizona. The grant is for a 6-year research effort to improve the understanding of dynamical architectures of planetary systems and the overall mass distribution of exoplanets using data from NASA missions like Kepler, James Webb Space Telescope, TESS, and WFIRST. The research will involve N-body numerical simulations to...
- The University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, has been awarded a $924,726.00 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on "Characterizing the Role of Solutes and Defects in the Origin of Refractory Planetary Materials." This grant has an ultimate completion date of July 31, 2027. The University of Arizona is a public research university and 1862 land grant institution located in Tucson, Arizona. The contract has...
- The University of Arizona, a public research university and state government entity, was awarded a $403,086 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to advance the understanding of the early evolution of the Earth-Moon system during the first few tens of millions of years of the solar system's history. This grant, awarded on February 1, 2020, has a performance period through December 31, 2025. The award does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Arizona...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $132,508.25 Training Grant to the University of Arizona (doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents) to conduct a detailed mineralogical study of small irregular satellites and Trojan asteroids of the giant planets. The research aims to test the hypothesis that these objects originate from the same source, which could provide insights into the early dynamic evolution of the solar system. This award supports NASA's goals for...
This is a $1,289,957.12 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona for a research project titled "Origins of Refractory Material in Stellar Systems from an Atomistic to a Macroscale Perspective." The grant is part of NASA's Emerging Worlds program, which supports research aimed at understanding the formation and early evolution of the solar system. The project will use a multifaceted approach integrating nanoscale analytical measurements and astrophysical dynamical modeling to decipher the histories of refractory presolar materials from ancient stars and calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions formed in the early solar nebula. The research will combine several analytical methods, including secondary ion mass spectrometry, electron backscatter diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning transmission X-ray microscopy. The grant has a performance period from July 1, 2015 to January 25, 2021 and does not have a set-aside designation.
