New York University was awarded a $494,379 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences on September 1, 2021 to complete the project by August 31, 2024. The grant is part of the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), which aims to promote progress in these fields and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise.
Under this award, New York University will conduct large-scale statistics simulations of line intensity mapping to increase understanding of major problems in astronomy. Line intensity mapping is a technique using spectral line emissions to map the large-scale structure of the universe. The grant will support New York University in performing simulations that provide statistical insights into what future line intensity mapping surveys may reveal. The project's findings have the potential to enhance scientific knowledge of the universe and inform planning for forthcoming observational campaigns.
