- This is a $1,493,365.12 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to conduct shock-induced melting and vaporization experiments on planetary materials. The objective is to study the thermodynamic response of planetary materials during high-velocity impact events, which can lead to melting, vaporization, and other observable features relevant to understanding impact processes throughout the solar system. This...
- This is a $278,019 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to conduct research related to land surface change and associated natural hazards. The grant supports the development of predictive capabilities and early warning technologies for major earthquakes, focusing on modeling the dynamics of tsunamis using the Tsunami Squares method. The work builds upon previous NASA-funded efforts to model earthquakes,...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) is for research on the thermodynamics and mechanics of large impact events on terrestrial planets. The primary objective is to build a robust set of tools that more accurately predict the outcomes of giant impacts, such as the Moon-forming impact, by obtaining improved equation of state data for key mantle minerals like olivine, bronzite, and bridgmanite....
- This is a $214,026.25 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) for research on the "Mechanical Properties of Materials that Control Service Life and Device Capabilities". The award, which does not have a set-aside designation, aims to study how internal structures and stresses established during manufacturing affect the performance and lifespan of materials. UC Davis, a public...
- This is a $90,000.00 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) on September 1, 2020. The primary objective is to establish the genealogy and provenance of important groups of planetary materials, such as iron meteorites and pallasites, using nucleosynthetic isotopic anomalies. This research aims to advance the understanding of how chemical and physical processes in the early solar...
- This is a $824,005.00 grant awarded by NASA to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) for research related to "CAPTURING HUMAN ADAPTATIONS IN NOVEL GRAVITATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS IN SPACE (CHANGES)". The grant supports sustainable lunar exploration and the expansion of economic activity into cis-lunar space. UC Davis, a prominent public research university, is the prime contractor and has not subcontracted any portion of the work. The grant does not have a small business...
- This is a $39,900 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) for a project titled "HIGH-CADENCE UV LIGHT CURVES OF EXTREMELY YOUNG SUPERNOVAE". The award is for research and does not have a small business set-aside designation. UC Davis, a major public land-grant research university, frequently receives federal awards to support scientific research across diverse fields. This grant will enable UC Davis...
- This is a $32,863.49 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to conduct research on "Constraining the Accretion and Outgassing of Martian Interior Volatiles through High-Precision Noble Gas Analyses." The award is not set aside for any specific designation. UC Davis is a prominent public research university with extensive expertise in areas such as agriculture, environmental sciences, biomedical...
- This is a $91,150.99 grant award to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study the origins and evolution of differentiated asteroids. The primary objective is to improve understanding of the asteroids that produced mafic achondrites, a type of stony meteorite, through coordinated petrologic, geochemical, and isotopic analyses. The research aims to develop criteria for evaluating the number of asteroids contributing...
- This is a $33,141.53 cooperative agreement awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to conduct research on the "Incipient Weathering of Mars Analog Soils in Iceland". The work will develop a cross-scale understanding of rock-derived elemental cycling, which supports NASA's scientific research needs. UC Davis, a major public research university, frequently receives federal awards across a wide range of scientific disciplines, including...
This is a $84,752.47 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to complete work on a previous grant focused on understanding the effects of planetary impacts on water-saturated materials. The project will conduct additional shock wave experiments to investigate the transition from ice-sand to water-sand mixtures under high pressure conditions, which could have significant implications for modeling the heating of water-filled porous materials during impact events on planetary surfaces. UC Davis has expertise in shock physics and planetary science research, and this grant builds on their previous work on this topic. The award does not have a set-aside designation.
