- This federal contract award is for the High-Energy Light Isotope Experiment (HELIX), a new suborbital program designed to make detailed measurements of the isotopic composition of light cosmic-ray nuclei over an energy range from approximately 200 megaelectronvolts per nucleon (MeV/n) to 10 gigaelectronvolts per nucleon (GeV/n). The $2,639,553 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Chicago, a renowned private research university, to...
- The University of Chicago was awarded a $4.75M research grant on November 17, 2022, to support the continuation of the HELIX (High-Energy Light Isotope Experiment), a suborbital program designed to measure the isotopic composition of light cosmic-ray nuclei in the energy range of approximately 200 million to 10 billion electron volts per nucleon. The project extends beyond existing measurements from the ACE/CRIS mission by over an order of magnitude into energy ranges where fully resolved...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Indiana University, doing business as Indiana University, to support the High-Energy Light Isotope Experiment (HELIX) suborbital program. HELIX is designed to measure the isotopic composition of light cosmic ray nuclei at energies ranging from approximately 200 million electron volts per nucleon (MeV/nuc) to 10 billion electron volts per nucleon (GeV/nuc). This data will provide important...
- This is a bridge funding proposal for the continuation of the first phase of the Suborbital Astrophysics Program, HELIX (High-Energy Light Isotope Experiment), a magnet spectrometer payload designed to make measurements of the isotopic composition of cosmic rays. The $2,793,443.81 contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Chicago, a renowned private research university, to support this research project. The contract does not have a...
- This is a $228,855.95 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Northern Kentucky University Research Foundation, a non-profit organization, for the HELIX (High Energy Light Isotope Experiment) project. HELIX will utilize a high-precision magnet spectrometer to provide measurements of cosmic-ray particles that are not achievable by any current or proposed instrument. The project will combine a superconducting magnet with state-of-the-art detectors to...
- The Regents of the University of Michigan, through its Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, was awarded a $612,891 civilian research grant by a federal agency's Shared Services Center with a completion date of January 20, 2027. The research grant supports astrophysical investigations examining the mass, extent, and metallicities of hot halos, with results to be compared against existing X-ray observational data. This competitively awarded grant without set-aside designation is being...
- This is a four-year, $278,934 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Michigan for a Heliophysics Living With a Star (H-LWS) project. The research aims to examine the causes of the double power-law spectra of solar energetic particles, investigating two hypotheses - that the spectra are generated by the acceleration process near the Sun, or by the transport process from the Sun to 1 AU. This grant does not have a set-aside...
- This is a $422,527 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Michigan, Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, doing business as the University of Michigan. The grant is for research on the Milky Way's hot gas halo and its interaction with the Fermi bubbles, large structures extending above and below the galactic center. The research aims to characterize the properties of the hot halo, including its density, pressure, gas...
