This is a $135,440.79 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Michigan, a U.S. state government educational institution. The contract is for a study of the precursors of coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which are solar plasma eruptions that can disrupt Earth's geomagnetic field. The study will utilize 3D magnetohydrodynamics simulations and spectroscopic analysis to investigate the initiation and early evolution of CMEs, in order to improve the ability to detect and predict these events. This research directly supports NASA's Heliophysics program goals of advancing the understanding of connections between the Sun, Earth, and space environments. No set-aside designation was used for this contract award.
