- This is a $435,469.13 grant awarded to The Johns Hopkins University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center on June 1, 2016 for the project "Characterizing Mercury's Energetic Electron Events: A Phenomenological Study of a Unique Magnetosphere." The grant supports a study of the transient bursts of energetic particles produced in Mercury's magnetosphere, using data from the MESSENGER spacecraft. The research focuses on four main aspects of...
- This is a $134,694.71 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit university, to conduct research related to understanding Mercury's internally generated magnetic field. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. The research aims to address limitations in current understanding due to the impact of external signals in Mercury's active magnetic environment. This award is not associated with a larger...
- This is a $369,967.61 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on the dynamics and coupling of the Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and atmosphere in response to solar and terrestrial inputs. The objective is to identify and characterize the primary plasma motions responsible for the onset of explosive magnetotail activity during substorms and bursty bulk flows. The research will use data from NASA's Cluster, THEMIS,...
- The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $189,278 research grant by the federal government on September 3, 2024, for a project titled "Do Polygonal Impact Craters Form on Mercury's Lobate Scarps? Implications for Contractional Tectonism Throughout the Solar System." The grant, which carries a completion deadline of September 2, 2026, is classified as a non-set-aside research grant funded through a civilian federal agency. The project will be performed at Johns Hopkins' Baltimore,...
- This is a $369,936.96 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to The Johns Hopkins University (JHU) to conduct research related to solar wind driving of the upward field-aligned currents. The research aims to study how field-aligned currents, parallel potential drops, electron precipitation, and related ionospheric parameters vary with solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field conditions, as well as the effects of Kelvin-Helmholtz vortices at the magnetopause...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university, to conduct a targeted study of processes in Mercury's exosphere. The three-year, $331,585.66 grant has the objectives of: 1) using ultraviolet and visible spectrometer (UVVS) data and a Monte Carlo code to determine the overall "background" structure of the sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg), and calcium (Ca)...
- This is a $308,034.22 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. The grant is for a project titled "Storm-Time Magnetosphere: Specification and Prediction Using a Global MHD Model with Empirical Ring Current Pressure" which aims to improve predictive modeling of the geospace environment during geomagnetic storms. The project will extract equilibrium magnetic pressure data from the Tsyganenko...
- This is a $415,871.15 grant awarded to The Johns Hopkins University by the Shared Services Center (an alternate name for a NASA center) to conduct research on the plasma convection in the distant plasma sheet of the Earth's magnetosphere. The research aims to investigate the statistical characteristics, solar wind-driven responses, and ionospheric manifestations of the magnetic flux transport in this region using data from the ARTEMIS and THEMIS spacecraft missions. As a non-set-aside grant...
- This is a $563,177 grant for research awarded to The Johns Hopkins University by a civilian federal agency, the Shared Services Center, to conduct a study titled "UNDERSTANDING THE HETEROGENEITY OF MERCURY'S VOLATILE-BEARING SOUTH POLAR DEPOSITS" with a period of performance through October 9, 2026. The Johns Hopkins University is a private, non-profit research university known for its expertise in scientific research across various domains, including space exploration, for federal...
- This $292,595.19 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, to conduct research related to mapping the crustal magnetic field of the planet Mercury. The objectives of the research are to: (a) evaluate whether magnetic anomalies are concentrated near impact basins on the opposite hemisphere of Mercury, in addition to the previously studied Caloris basin; (b) model selected anomalies to...
