- This is a $209,469.00 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) for a research project titled "CONSTRAINING STABLE STRATIFICATION AND DEEP WINDS INSIDE SATURN WITH CASSINI MAGNETOMETER DATA AND DYNAMO SIMULATIONS". The award is to support specialized scientific research utilizing data from the Cassini mission to study the internal structure and atmospheric dynamics of Saturn. This is a non-set-aside grant with a period of...
- This is a $618,627.78 grant awarded by NASA to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to study the interior of Saturn using data from the Cassini spacecraft's "Grand Finale" orbits. The research aims to develop a theoretical framework to understand the dynamics of helium rain and the effects of composition gradients in Saturn's interior. The project will leverage first-principles materials simulations and thermal evolution modeling to compare predicted gravity field data...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC19K0540, was granted to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The $448,068.10 grant funds a comprehensive data analysis and modeling effort to understand variations in the thickness and plasma content of the Jovian magnetospheric current sheet. This research aims to infer how external and internal drivers influence plasma transport and redistribution in Jupiter's magnetosphere....
- The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), through its Office of Research Administration, has been awarded a $448,312.00 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to build new models of Jupiter's magnetospheric field. This research contract, identified as 80NSSC20K1047, runs through May 2025 and does not have a set-aside designation. As the prime contractor, UCLA will leverage the general deformation technique successfully used by Tsyganenko [1995, 1998] to model...
- This is a $202,919.76 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct research and analysis on Saturn's intrinsic magnetic field. The research aims to characterize key features of Saturn's magnetic field using data from the Cassini mission's magnetometer instrument, and interpret these characteristics in terms of Saturn's interior structure and dynamics. The research will involve magnetic equator crossing...
- This federal contract award from NASA, valued at $278,305.00, was granted to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley. The award supports research to investigate the coupling between the surface, magnetosphere, and exospheres of Saturn's icy moons, including Mimas, Tethys, Dione, and Rhea. The research will leverage a combination of plasma modeling, particle-based electrostatic models, and data analysis of Cassini spacecraft...
