This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Aerospace Corporation, a federally funded research and development center. The $525,000 grant supports research to determine the dynamics and coupling of Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and atmosphere and their response to solar and terrestrial inputs, which aligns with a high-level science goal from NASA's Heliophysics Decadal Survey. The Aerospace Corporation has a long history of providing...
This is a $340,004 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Aerospace Corporation, a non-profit federally funded research and development center (FFRDC) in El Segundo, California. The objective of the grant is to model the effects of diffuse auroral precipitation on the magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere (MIT) system, specifically the impact on thermospheric neutral density and low Earth orbit propagation. The Aerospace Corporation has a broad range...
This is a $100,000.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Aerospace Corporation, a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC) headquartered in El Segundo, California. The grant is for research focused on "particle injections observed as sudden flux increases across a range of energies throughout the near-Earth magnetotail," which is an important process for understanding particle energization and transport. The Aerospace...
This is a $448,377.21 grant award issued by NASA to The Aerospace Corporation, a non-profit federally funded research and development center (FFRDC). The grant is for research to study the interactions between plasma waves and energetic electrons that contribute to the formation of the Earth's radiation belts. The work will make detailed comparisons between particle and wave observations from the Van Allen Probes mission and theoretical calculations. This research supports NASA's scientific...
This is a $695,828.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Aerospace Corporation, a non-profit federally funded research and development center (FFRDC) headquartered in El Segundo, California.
