This federal contract award, with ID NNX15AI70G, was granted by the Shared Services Center (SSC) of a civilian federal agency to the University System of New Hampshire (UNH), through its University of New Hampshire division operating as the Office of Sponsored Research. The two-year, $218,988.63 grant funds a program to re-analyze data from the Compton Telescope (COMPTEL) instrument on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO) satellite, in search of evidence of polarization in both transient and...
This federal contract award to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) is for the "Optimization of the GRAPE Polarimeter Design" project, which aims to develop and test an improved gamma-ray polarimeter instrument for studying gamma-ray bursts. The $558,894.27 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will allow UNH to advance the Gamma-Ray Polarimeter Experiment (GRAPE) technology, building on previous balloon flight validations. The contract has no set-aside...
The University of New Hampshire (UNH), through its Office of Sponsored Research, has been awarded a $2,750,000 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to develop a prototype gamma ray polarimeter instrument called the Gamma Ray Polarimeter Experiment (GRAPE). GRAPE will measure the polarization of gamma rays from gamma-ray bursts in the energy range of 50 to 500 keV to better understand the geometry and physical processes close to gamma-ray...
This federal contract award, identified as NNX16AL66G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), part of the University System of New Hampshire. The contract is focused on "Impulsive Ion Escape at the Sun-HSPHR" and involves research related to solar energetic particle events and the acceleration of ions through magnetic reconnection. The contract is a grant for research, with a ceiling value of $84,738.27 and an...
This federal contract award, valued at $773,969.13, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), a non-profit, 1862 land grant educational institution, to conduct research on the behavior of alpha particles in the solar wind. The project aims to develop analytical theories and numerical simulations to better understand the differential flow, anisotropic heating, and abundance variations of helium in the solar wind. The research...
This $968,807 federal grant award to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), under the University System of New Hampshire (USNH), is for the development of EO14042 Transition Edge Sensor Arrays for high-energy X-ray and gamma-ray astronomy. The award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and does not have a set-aside designation. UNH, as the prime contractor, has a history of providing research, technical assistance, and education services to various U.S. federal...
This federal contract award, valued at $664,424.05, was granted by NASA to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), operating through its Office of Sponsored Research. The objective is to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the early development and propagation of a series of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and the associated solar energetic particle (SEP) acceleration. The research will combine data analysis of remote-sensing observations of the solar corona and in-situ measurements, as well...
This $258,982.40 federal grant award, issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), supports the University of New Hampshire (UNH) in conducting a comprehensive analysis of Earth albedo neutron and gamma data collected by the COMPTEL experiment on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory spacecraft between 1991-2000. The data covers the energy range of 15-150 MeV neutrons and 0.8-30 MeV gamma rays, which are relevant for modeling the dynamics of the inner radiation belt. This work...
This contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University System of New Hampshire (UNH), through its University of New Hampshire division operating as the Office of Sponsored Research, to conduct research and analysis on X-ray sources detected by the XMM-Newton space observatory. The $277,766.85 grant-funded contract supports expanding on a previous project to systematically classify a large sample of 23,000 high-quality...
This federal contract award, valued at $120,020.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University System of New Hampshire (USNH) for a research project titled "JOINT OBSERVATIONS OF CYG X-1 AND CYG X-3 WITH IXPE AND XL-CALIBUR". The contract is a Grant for Research and does not utilize a set-aside designation. The contract is associated with a larger Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) that USNH holds with the Environmental Protection Agency...

The federal contract award NNX17AC85G, valued at $300,000.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), through its Office of Sponsored Research, to continue the development of a soft gamma-ray concentrator. The objective is to create a multilayer structure that can channel soft gamma-ray photons via total external reflection, enabling a compact soft gamma-ray telescope suitable for balloon-borne instruments. This work builds on previous research funded under the Astrophysics Research and Analysis (APRA) program. The contract does not have a set-aside designation and is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2019.
