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 $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...
This $484,651 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, will support a research project at Arizona State University (ASU) to characterize radio continuum emission from low-redshift Lyman continuum leakers. The goal is to better understand the reionization of the universe, which was driven by young galaxies that ionized the intergalactic medium by a redshift of ~6. The project will leverage 221 hours of VLA...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $280,902 supports research at Michigan State University from September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2025 under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The university will undertake optical surveys of unidentified gamma-ray sources using the Southern Astrophysical Research 4.3-meter telescope to discover new millisecond pulsars, which are rapidly rotating neutron stars that may be gaining spin from companion stars. The surveys aim...
This $272,810 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), will fund research at the University of Minnesota to advance understanding of galaxy cluster physics and evolution. Over the two-year period from September 2022 to August 2025, the university will conduct high-resolution magnetohydrodynamic computer simulations to model the interaction of radio jets and intracluster medium, as...
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,...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $589,939 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to the University of Richmond in Richmond, Virginia. The grant will fund the creation of a new, highly accurate map of the diffuse radio emission across the sky at 310 MHz, which will be an important resource for the astronomical community. The project will leverage advanced radio receiver technology and computing capabilities to produce this...
This five-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences provides $527,050 to the University of Massachusetts Amherst to establish coherent frameworks for understanding massive galaxy formation and promote inclusive astronomy. Under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the investigator will use data from the Large Millimeter Telescope and Subaru Telescope to map the distribution of galaxies and molecular gas throughout...
This $732,034 Project Grant award by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program will support the development and deployment of an Operational Data Sharing (ODS) system to enable real-time spectrum sharing between radio astronomy observatories and satellite constellations. The primary objectives are to construct the ODS system and experiment with spectrum sharing between the Jansky Very Large Array in New Mexico, the Green Bank Telescope in...
