- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin, with a ceiling value of $93,924.47. The purpose of the grant is to analyze a Spitzer/IRAC survey of nine sightlines in the sky to search for the brightest galaxies in the distant universe at redshift z>9, approximately 500 million years after the Big Bang. This grant will help build the most robust sample of bright z>9 galaxies, allowing researchers to place...
- This federal grant award to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) for $714,877.00 supports research on the "Cosmological Assembly of Galactic Disks and Bulges." The grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), has a period of performance ending on March 31, 2026. UT Austin, a major research university and component of the University of Texas System, frequently partners with federal agencies on a wide range of research initiatives across scientific...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $223,101.00 grant to the University of Texas at Austin to construct the most accurate set of galaxy ultraviolet (UV) luminosity functions over a large redshift range. The university will use Spitzer infrared data to minimize contamination and improve photometric redshift precision, applying a uniform set of selection criteria across datasets spanning a wide area. This research aims to provide robust constraints on the abundance...
- This federal contract award, valued at $287,210.15, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin, a component of the University of Texas System. The contract supports research to investigate the build-up of massive quiescent galaxies at high redshifts (z > 3), when the universe was less than 2 billion years old. The work leverages data from the Spitzer-HETDEX Exploratory Large Area (SHELA) survey, which provides wide-area...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $314,746.66 grant to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to model the formation of wide binary star systems. The research program will develop an algorithm to track pre-stellar structure, assess how physical parameters like rotational energy influence stellar multiplicity, perform numerical simulations, and produce synthetic observations for comparison with recent astronomical survey data. Approximately 85% of the...
- This federal contract award, with identification number 80NSSC22K0489, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin), a prominent public research university. The $491,103 grant will fund research to support two key goals of NASA's Cosmic Origin program: (1) the evolution of the reionization process, and (2) using Lyman-alpha emission as a tracer of reionization. The research will utilize observations from the Spitzer/IRAC...
- This is a $134,999.99 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin, a public research university. The grant will fund research on atmospheric retrieval, which is the only method for determining the properties of exoplanet atmospheres since in-situ measurements are not possible at astronomical distances. The University of Texas at Austin is the prime grantee on this award and is not a set-aside contract. The University of...
- This is a $99,908.57 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to conduct research on exoplanets. The research aims to study the dramatic changes that occur in the orbital, radius, and atmospheric properties of exoplanets in the first few hundred million years after their formation. This is a crucial period for evaluating models of exoplanet evolution, such as migration. The grant is a research contract with a...
- This is a $100,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin to conduct research on the relationship between the metallicity of stars and the formation of exoplanets. The award, which has no set-aside designation, is part of NASA's efforts to better understand planetary system formation. The University of Texas at Austin is a major research university with extensive experience in federal research grants and contracts...
- This is a $837,299.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) for advanced silicon diffractive optics research to support cross-dispersed spectroscopy. The grant is for a period of performance ending on January 15, 2026. UT Austin is the prime contractor on this award, and it is not associated with a larger contract vehicle. There is no set-aside designation for this grant. As a leading public research university,...
