Dartmouth College received a $322,516 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations exploring the physics of magnetic reconnection in collisionless plasmas. This research supports NASA's ongoing Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission, which aims to resolve the diffusion scale physics of magnetic reconnection in Earth's magnetosphere. Dartmouth will collaborate with the MMS theory and modeling team, as well as the Fast...

This is a $540,752.65 grant award to the University of Delaware (UDE) to provide theoretical and analysis support for the Extended Magnetosphere Multiscale (MMS) Mission led by Southwest Research Institute. The project, which has no set-aside designation, is focused on studying plasma turbulence, reconnection, and particle acceleration processes relevant to the MMS mission objectives. UDE will utilize numerical simulations and coordinate with MMS data analysis to advance the fundamental...
