The Johns Hopkins University has a substantial history of federally...
- This $439,770.97 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University on February 1, 2017 to conduct the ACCESS - Absolute Color Calibration Experiment for Standard Stars program. The goal is to improve the precision of the astrophysical flux scale by transferring absolute laboratory detector standards from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to a network of stellar standards. The grant provides funding for...
- This is a $1,400,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a leading private research university, to execute a balanced science program. The grant will focus on scientific research of, on, and from the Moon, lunar orbit, Mars, and beyond, as well as advancing discovery in emerging fields by identifying and exploiting cross-disciplinary opportunities. The grant also includes efforts to develop a target-user focused approach...
- The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $619,158.68 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop and streamline the fabrication processes required to produce background-limited large far-infrared detector arrays with a large number of pixels. The grant will allow Johns Hopkins to combine mature detector and readout technologies to fabricate a robust, close-packed, high-sensitivity bolometer array with reliable, high-quantum efficiency absorbers that operate...
- This $65,068 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University is for the development of scalable microshutter systems for multi-object spectroscopy. As the prime contractor, Johns Hopkins University will conduct research and development under this 2-year grant. No set-aside designation was used for this award. The Johns Hopkins University is a private research university in Baltimore, Maryland with extensive experience supporting federal...
- This is a $524,986 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. The grant is for research on the "Evolution of Alpha and Proton Populations in the Inner Heliosphere: Role of Coulomb Collisions and Turbulence Fluctuations."
