- 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...
- This is a $875,740.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to New York University (NYU) for research on the orbital evolution and multi-messenger signatures of binary black holes with circumbinary disks. The goal is to develop a detailed understanding of the hydrodynamic interaction between the black hole binary and the surrounding gas disk, and the resulting electromagnetic and gravitational wave emissions. This research will support NASA's strategic...
- This is a $396,121.97 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation (Georgia Tech) to develop theoretical models that can facilitate the interpretation of existing data on gravitationally bound supermassive black hole binaries (SBHBs). The goal is to leverage observational constraints to make predictions that can be tested by current and future space-based astrophysics missions. The research involves using semi-analytic and...
- This federal contract award to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University, has the goal of developing theoretical models and observational diagnostics to understand the emergence of the first generation of stars and supermassive black holes in the universe, as well as the physical feedback processes that determined their evolution and the early stages of cosmic reionization. The $411,804.76 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space...
