This federal contract award to Old Dominion University Research Foundation (ODURF) supports laboratory spectroscopy research to develop spectral data for studying the atmospheres of hot super-Earth exoplanets. The $366,620.04 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), will fund experimental observations and ab initio calculations to generate spectroscopic line lists for molecules like H2O, LiF, AlCl, AlF, NO, and TiO that are important in exoplanet atmospheres. This research will help interpret observations from current and future NASA missions studying exoplanets, such as Kepler, Spitzer, Hubble, and the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope. The contract is not a set-aside, and ODURF frequently serves as a prime contractor and subcontractor on federal research grants across a range of scientific domains for NASA, the Department of Defense, and other agencies.
