This federal contract award, NNX15AU62G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley. The $228,736.49 grant is for a "Multi-Cluster Study of Nonlinear Structures Upstream of Earth's Bow Shock" research project. The research aims to use ion and magnetic field data to analyze the structures and properties of the solar wind upstream of Earth's bow shock. Key aspects include identifying upstream structures, determining the fraction of structures that show a persistent solar wind beam, and characterizing the structures in terms of duration, density depletion, temperature, and magnetic amplitude. The research will also involve simulation studies and presenting results at science meetings and in journal articles. This grant award is not a set-aside contract.
