- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences provides $193,864 to The Trustees of Princeton University for collaborative research to constrain supernova progenitor systems and explosion mechanisms through three-dimensional reconstruction of supernova remnants. The research team will study five nearby supernova remnants to create 3D models of the locations and velocities of exploded star material. They will deduce the composition of the stars prior...
- 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 $258,736 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support a collaborative research project to study nearby cosmic explosions, known as supernovae, from their earliest moments. The research team at Rutgers, The State University will enhance its rapid survey for the nearest and brightest supernovae, incorporating new infrastructure to identify even younger nearby supernovae. As part of this work, three...
- The University of California, Davis received a $531,469 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to enhance its rapid survey for the nearest and brightest supernovae in the sky. The 3-year award will support the team's efforts to incorporate new infrastructure to find even younger nearby supernovae, with the goal of discovering 30 very young nearby supernovae over the project period. This includes 12 thermonuclear Type Ia...
