This is a $520,337 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley to conduct research on solar wind turbulence and dissipation. The award aims to investigate how kinetic-scale fluctuations in the solar wind may contribute to heating and isotropizing the solar wind as it travels towards Earth. This research aligns with NASA's focus on understanding the physics of the Sun and solar system. The award was made directly to the...
This is a $367,127.99 grant awarded by NASA to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on the structure and variability of the solar wind. The research aims to investigate how the magnetic geometry of the solar corona influences the heliospheric solar wind. This grant is not associated with a set-aside program. As a parent organization, the State of California Controller's Office would administer any funding provided to UC Berkeley under this grant. UC Berkeley...
This $153,731.41 grant from NASA to the University of California, Berkeley is funding work to aggregate, analyze, and document the in-situ data from the HELIOS 1 and 2 solar missions, which collected unprecedented measurements of the inner heliosphere over 11 years. The goal is to create a comprehensive public archive of this valuable dataset to support planning for the upcoming Solar Orbiter (SOLO) and Solar Probe Plus (SPP) missions. Key tasks include carefully analyzing and reprocessing the...
This is a $395,731.51 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on energy transport and conversion processes at the interface of the plasma sheet and inner magnetosphere. The research aims to understand the nature of the energy transport process that supports the driving of large amplitude kinetic scale electromagnetic oscillations observed in this region and identify the processes...
This $736,800 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). The grant is for a research project titled "MAGNETIC FLUX EMERGENCE AND COUPLING OF SCALES IN ERUPTIVE CONFIGURATIONS FROM THE UPPER CONVECTION ZONE TO THE SOLAR CORONA". This is a fundamental research study that aims to improve understanding of solar physics and solar...
This is a $861,330.72 grant from NASA's Living With a Star (LWS) program to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on solar eruptive events. The goal is to use data-driven numerical magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to understand how energized active regions on the Sun trigger coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and other severe space weather disturbances. The research aims to determine the roles of photospheric boundary flows, adjacent magnetic fields, flux...
This is a $499,712.05 grant awarded by NASA to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on the origins and properties of solar wind structures and solar energetic particle (SEP) events. The research aims to improve our understanding of the 3D structure of the heliosphere and solar wind, building upon the goals of the NASA STEREO mission. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. UC Berkeley is the prime contractor, and the parent organization is the State...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $329,348.05 research grant to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to analyze data from solar and space weather monitoring instruments. The goal is to better understand the origin of the solar wind and its impacts on the near-Earth environment. This work supports NASA's heliophysics research program, which seeks to characterize the physical processes driving solar and space weather activity. The grant does not...
This award is a $411,460.44 grant for research provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). The grant will support a project that involves analyzing data from spacecraft such as Helios, Wind, and ACE, as well as developing simulations using a Langevin model/collisional hybrid expanding box code. The research aims to study the...
This is a $150,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley).
