Project Grant 2205628
- This $137,360 National Science Foundation project grant supports collaborative research to chart the connection between supernovae, gas, and stars via a major new survey of the Local Group using the Very Large Array radio telescope. Specifically, the University of Wisconsin-Madison will conduct observation, processing, and analysis of the Local Group L-Band Survey, an 1,800-hour VLA survey of six northern Local Group galaxies including Andromeda. The survey will simultaneously map the 21-cm...
- This $104,425 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to chart the connection between supernovae, interstellar gas, and star formation in the Local Group of galaxies via a major new survey using the Very Large Array radio telescope. Specifically, the University of Washington will conduct observation, processing, and analysis of the Local Group L-Band Survey, an 1,800-hour VLA survey of six northern Local Group galaxies including Andromeda. The survey will simultaneously map...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $322,258 will support the Local Group L-Band Survey, a major new 1,800-hour observational survey of six northern Local Group galaxies using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array. Conducted under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the survey simultaneously maps the 21-cm hydrogen line and 1-2 GHz radio continuum emission to study interactions between the interstellar medium, star formation, and stellar feedback at an...
- This $325,777 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support a collaborative research effort to study nearby cosmic explosions, known as supernovae, from their earliest moments. The research team will enhance its rapid survey capabilities to promptly identify and study new supernovae in nearby galaxies, taking advantage of a network of small telescopes. This will enable the discovery of...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences Project Grant award of $457,353 to The Ohio State University supports a program of data analysis and modeling to interpret the elemental abundance patterns of stars in the Milky Way and its dwarf satellite galaxies. The research, which runs from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026, aims to build a coherent picture of the stellar and galactic-scale phenomena that govern the synthesis of chemical elements. This work will...
- This $546,489 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049) supports research at New Mexico State University (NMSU) aimed at using extended emission line nebulae to study the variability of active galactic nuclei (AGN) over long timescales of 10,000 to 100,000 years. The research program has two key components: (1) developing an efficient search algorithm to...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $303,516 to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to develop software and conduct research on explosive transients in the distant universe. The 4-year research program, running from March 2025 to August 2028, will leverage data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, the Interplanetary Network, and the International Gravitational Wave Network to enable new...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) grant award under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $270,796 to the University of Massachusetts to conduct a comprehensive survey of a large sample of candidate dusty starburst galaxies in the early universe. The main objectives are to determine accurate redshifts and positions, and define a statistically significant sample of galaxies at z > 6. This will involve deep optical and near-infrared follow-up observations to...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program, with a total funding amount of $441,642, supports research to deepen the understanding of the final stages of stellar evolution, specifically focusing on red giants and their mass-shedding processes. The key objectives of this 2-year research project, which runs from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2026, are to: Employ very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations,...
- This National Science Foundation award provides $161,052 to the University of Massachusetts under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025. The funding supports collaborative research to develop advanced hydrodynamic galaxy simulation software to study the complex interplay between stellar winds and the circumgalactic medium surrounding massive galaxies. Researchers will incorporate a subgrid wind model into an existing...
This $346,372 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to better understand the interaction between interstellar gas, supernova explosions, and massive young stars in nearby galaxies. Funded under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the award will support observation, processing, and analysis associated with the Local Group L-Band Survey, an 1,800-hour Very Large Array survey of six northern Local Group galaxies including Andromeda. The survey will simultaneously map the 21-cm hydrogen line to trace neutral atomic hydrogen gas and 1-2 GHz radio continuum emission to trace past supernova explosions and warm gas around massive stars. This will allow researchers to resolve for the first time the relationships between the interstellar medium, star formation, and stellar feedback in these galaxies. The work will be performed from August 15, 2022 through July 31, 2025 at The Ohio State University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program's goals of strengthening the nation's scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of major problems.
