- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $640,439.00 grant to the University of Delaware to study the transition region of the solar wind as it flows out from the corona and into the heliosphere. The research aims to characterize the large-scale heliospheric conditions in this region, which is critical for understanding the origin of various physical processes in the solar wind. The study will combine remote sensing observations from the STEREO mission with global...
- The University of Delaware was awarded a $323,530 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center on March 20, 2024, to optimize neutron monitor data products for space weather applications. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation and indicates open competition, is scheduled for completion by March 19, 2026. This research initiative supports NASA's efforts to improve the utility and accessibility of neutron monitor data—instruments that detect solar energetic particles and cosmic...
- This is a $342,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Delaware to study space-time correlations using data from multiple spacecraft. The work will involve transforming data to the solar wind frame, computing space-time correlations, and analyzing the results to extract fundamental quantities. This effort supports NASA's broader program on understanding the dynamics of the space environment. The award has no set-aside designation...
