The Regents of the University of Colorado was awarded a $361,599.67 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop advanced ultraviolet spectrograph designs for future space astronomy missions. The goal is to create holographically corrected echelle grating designs that can provide enhanced sensitivity, resolution, and multi-object capabilities compared to current state-of-the-art instruments. This work will support the design of ultraviolet spectrographs...
This is a $1,292,157.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado, to develop and flight-qualify the instrument designs and components required to support NASA's ambitious space instrumentation objectives over the next decade. The five-year suborbital research program will utilize the University's expertise in physics, materials science, and aerospace engineering to...
This is a $1,671,831.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to support a two-year suborbital-class research program for the Colorado Ultraviolet Transit Experiment (CUTE), a NASA-funded 6U CubeSat mission to study atmospheric composition and escape on exoplanets. The University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and...
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...
