The National Science Foundation awarded a $539,588 project grant to Michigan State University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) for work on "Baryon Cycles in the Biggest Galaxies" from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The grant funding will support Michigan State University's efforts to advance understanding of major problems in astrophysics, such as the formation and evolution of galaxies, through research examining the flow of baryonic matter in large galaxies. As the prime awardee, Michigan State University will leverage the funding to analyze baryon cycling processes in massive galaxies and increase the store of scientific knowledge regarding these astrophysical phenomena over the three-year period of performance.
