- This federal contract award was issued by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) to study the behavior of magnetoacoustic waves between the photosphere and corona above sunspots. The $489,498.34 grant is for fundamental research related to MHD waves and energy transport, addressing goals outlined in the Decadal Survey. The primary data sources are from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) instruments - the Atmospheric...
- This is a grant awarded by NASA to Stanford University to study the structure and temporal evolution of the Sun's deep meridional circulation. The $228,385 grant aims to better understand the systematic center-to-limb effect that has impacted previous measurements of the Sun's meridional flow, and to develop improved helioseismic analysis methods to more accurately determine the meridional circulation profile and its changes over solar cycles. The research is expected to provide critical...
- This federal contract award, identified as #80NSSC19K0072, was granted to The Leland Stanford Junior University, also known as Stanford University, a renowned private research institution located in Stanford, California. The award, with a ceiling value of $871,922.00, is for a research project titled "Magnetic Helicity in Solar Active Regions (ARs) is a Volume-Integrated Quantity that Quantifies Complexity in ARs." The project aims to determine the relationship between helicity flux...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded Stanford University a $1,270,907.20 grant for research titled "Consequences of Flows and Fields in the Interior and Exterior of the Sun." The research will be conducted under Stanford University's prime contract over a three-year period ending June 2023. NASA's Shared Services Center issued the award to support research exploring the consequences of flows and fields within and surrounding the sun. No subcontractors or set...
- This is a $615,284 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA), a non-profit organization that manages astronomical observatories and telescopes. The grant funds research to study the role of the sun's meridional flow on solar magnetic field dynamics and to use those findings to predict the strength of the upcoming Solar Cycle 25. The research will analyze data from NASA's Solar Dynamics...
- This federal contract award (80NSSC19K0857) was granted to The Leland Stanford Junior University, commonly known as Stanford University, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The $412,765.00 grant is for research aimed at developing a new frequency-dependent time-distance analysis technique to more accurately measure and model the sun's meridional circulation and its role in the solar cycle. The research also seeks to reconcile different results on...
- This is a $58,360.96 grant awarded to The Leland Stanford Junior University, also known as Stanford University, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for the HELIOCLOUD DATA DELIVERY FOR SDO project. The grant provides funding for research and data delivery related to NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) program. Stanford University, a renowned private research institution, was selected for this contract on a full and open competition basis, as there is no set-aside...
- This definitive cost-no-fee contract, awarded to Stanford University by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center on October 15, 2002, funds the design, development, fabrication, integration, testing, and delivery of the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) flight instrument for the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) project. The $186.3 million contract extends through September 30, 2027, and encompasses the complete lifecycle of the instrument from initial design through on-orbit operations....
This federal contract award, NNX15AT08H, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Stanford University, a renowned private research institution. The contract, valued at $105,000.00, aims to perform a comprehensive measurement of the solar meridional circulation profile, which is crucial for understanding the solar dynamo and its influence on the 11-year solar cycle and space weather. The project involves using data from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) instrument to infer a precise and robust solar meridional flow profile. This work aligns with NASA's Strategic Plan 2014, Objective 1.4, which seeks to understand "what causes the Sun to vary." The contract does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting Stanford's status as a leading research institution competing for federal work on full and open terms.
