This $180,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports two key research components at Montclair State University:
First, the experimental component aims to advance the development of Faraday isolators - critical devices that help prevent scattered light from resonating inside gravitational-wave detectors. The research focuses on reducing losses and improving the performance of these components for future...
The National Science Foundation awarded Montclair State University a $449,969 project grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to acquire a high-resolution accurate-mass Orbitrap LC-MS system. The grant will support the purchase of a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry instrument to enhance Montclair State University's research capabilities from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2024. The new mass spectrometer will enable analysis of biological and chemical...

This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $446,421 to improve modeling of gravitational wave detections through active galactic nuclei channels. The award to the Research Foundation of the City University of New York at Borough Manhattan Community College, from September 2022 to August 2025, will support rewriting and publicly releasing a Monte Carlo code developed to study compact object mergers in galactic...
This $259,995 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports the development of an open-source, GPU-enabled computational code for studying the mergers of compact astronomical objects like black holes and neutron stars. The award aims to advance multi-messenger astrophysics by creating a state-of-the-art simulation capability that can model these high-energy events and their associated gravitational wave,...
This $150,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports research to develop and deploy new adaptive optical technology to improve the sensitivity of gravitational-wave detectors. The primary goal is to expand the detection horizon of these detectors to very high redshifts (past a redshift of 5), enabling new tests of strong-field gravity, cosmology, and dense nuclear matter. This work is integral to...
