- This is a $3,256,304.08 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Colorado for research related to understanding the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation output of nearby stars and its impact on exoplanet atmospheres. The grant will fund two additional flights of the Dual-channel Extreme Ultraviolet Continuum Experiment (DEUCE) payload to (1) complete an ionizing radiation census of local B-stars and (2) obtain the first EUV spectra of the nearest main-sequence stars, including potential...
- This is a $372,851.82 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Colorado (CU) for a research project titled "Temporal Evolution of Plasma near Mars: A Multi-Point Approach." The project aims to use data from the MAVEN and Mars Express spacecraft to study the temporal and spatial variability of the Martian plasma environment, addressing key questions about the response time to changes in upstream conditions, the stability of plasma conditions at low...
- The Regents of the University of Colorado, on behalf of its Office of Contracts and Grants Division, was awarded a $389,940.42 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to enhance solar irradiance variability models. The project aims to incorporate data from the new GOES-16 satellite to increase reliability, increase spectral resolution to enable more detailed atmospheric radiative transfer modeling, and develop alternative models based on total solar irradiance...
- This is a $104,667.87 training grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Arizona (doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents) on September 1, 2015. The award, which does not have a set-aside designation, supports a project to provide empirically calibrated predictions of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and ultraviolet (UV) radiation from M dwarf stars over time. The results will help determine the habitability of Earth-like planets in M dwarf habitable zones by...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning. The $239,975.76 grant is for the University to establish the magnitude and temporal structure of the Sun's irradiance variability across ultraviolet, visible, and infrared wavelengths over time scales from months to decades. The goal is to consolidate this data into an improved proxy model of...
- This federal contract award is a $776,665 grant awarded by a civilian federal agency to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on characterizing and validating solar extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft X-ray spectral irradiance models using photoelectron spectra. The research aims to improve models of the solar EUV flux and its impact on Earth's ionosphere-thermosphere-mesosphere (ITM) system. The work will utilize observations and models from the Mars Atmosphere...
- This federal contract award, valued at $594,278, was granted by a civilian federal agency to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) to analyze new and unanticipated solar occultation measurements of the Mars thermosphere (120-200 km) made by the Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Monitor (EUVM) onboard the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) orbiter. The award, which is classified as a Grant for Research, has an ultimate completion date of August 20, 2026. CU is a prominent public...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC20K1332, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado (CU). The $10,265.51 grant will support Dr. Thiemann in providing extreme ultraviolet (EUV) irradiance spectra for Venus, developed under the "Improving Solar EUV Spectral Irradiance Models with Multi Vantage Point Observations" grant from the Living with a Star program. The...
- This is a federal grant award to The Regents of the University of Colorado (University of Colorado) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for research on the characteristics of white-light emission during solar flares. The $235,421.01 grant will fund the investigation of ultraviolet and optical emission from solar flares using data from NASA's Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) mission. The research aims to improve understanding of the role of nonthermal...
- This is a four-year, $2,749,735.61 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado (CU) to conduct an extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) spectrophotometry investigation of nearby B-stars. The research aims to provide insights into the reionization of the early universe by making critical observations in the 700-900 Angstrom waveband, which has never been observed for B-stars. The project will develop a sounding rocket payload called DEUCE...
