- This is a federal grant award to The Trustees of Princeton University, acting through its Office of Research and Project Administration, for a research project focused on understanding the turbulent nature of the solar wind and its impact on plasma physics. The $427,593.66 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), aims to accomplish several science goals, including determining the mechanisms responsible for perpendicular heating of solar wind ions, examining...
- This is a $436,539 grant awarded by NASA to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York for research on the impact of nucleosynthesis on accretion disks, outflows, and observable signatures associated with the merger of binary compact objects and the central engines of gamma-ray bursts and supernovae. The research program will investigate rapid accretion following the tidal disruption of a white dwarf by a neutron star or black hole, as well as the long-term evolution of...
- The Trustees of Princeton University received a $605.3K research grant from NASA's Shared Services Center, awarded on October 17, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of October 16, 2026. The grant supports fundamental research on "The Influence of Realistic Velocity Distribution Functions on the Dynamics and Instabilities Within Collisionless Shocks," a plasma physics investigation conducted at Princeton's New Jersey campus. This award carries no set-aside designation and represents...
- This is a $629,987.85 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Princeton University for research related to pulsar magnetospheres. The grant will fund three-dimensional kinetic simulations of pulsar magnetospheres using particle-in-cell (PIC) methods to study topics including plasma supply, magnetospheric shape, particle acceleration, relativistic reconnection, and pulsar wind interactions. This research aims to develop a self-consistent...
- This is a $482,081 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Princeton University Office of Research and Project Administration Division, doing business as Princeton University. The grant will fund research on turbulence and plasma energization to support the extended Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission. The research will be conducted at Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey. No set-aside designations...
- This is a grant for $404,138.00 awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Institute for Advanced Study - Louis Bamberger & MRS Felix Fuld Foundation to conduct research on boundary layers in astrophysical accretion disks. The research aims to better understand the mechanisms driving angular momentum and mass transport in the boundary layer region between accretion disks and central objects like neutron stars and white dwarfs. This will involve detailed 3D...
- This is a $502,040.17 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York Sponsored Projects Administration Division (Columbia University), a private non-profit university, to conduct research on compact supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs). The purpose of the research is to identify a population of SMBHBs in galactic nuclei, which are believed to form frequently in galaxy mergers and are prime...
- This is a $212,574 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Princeton University, Office of Research and Project Administration, for research on the geometry of the fluctuating component of the interplanetary magnetic field.
