This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Astronomical Sciences, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), provides $367,381 to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct research on space weather in young stellar systems using the Owens Valley Radio Observatory - Long Wavelength Array (OVRO-LWA). The research team, led by Caltech, will observe approximately 2,000 young stellar systems less than one billion years old with...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $824,005 to the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) to operate the Owens Valley Solar Arrays as an integrated facility for observing solar activity and supporting the solar physics and space weather communities. The project will advance understanding of solar phenomena such as solar flares, active regions, and coronal mass ejections, which drive space weather disturbances that...
This $484,024 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support a 4-year research program led by investigators at Louisiana State University, Harvard University, University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, and University of Maryland, College Park. The research aims to improve understanding of explosive transients, such as gamma-ray bursts and supernovae, by leveraging data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, the...
This Project Grant award, valued at $110,000, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) through the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program. The award supports a postdoctoral fellowship for Clara Brasseur at the Lowell Observatory to conduct research on the magnetospheric physics of low-mass stars and ultracool dwarf stars. The project aims to develop scaling relations between stellar properties, such as magnetic field strength and geometry, and...
This $212,120 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds research into the impacts of atmospheric waves and geomagnetic disturbances on space weather conditions. Led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in collaboration with Clemson University, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, New Jersey Institute of Technology, and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University from May 1, 2022 to April 30, 2025, the research will advance...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $574,603 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). The funding supports the development of advanced analysis methods for measuring the energy spectrum and mass composition of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays using the Owens Valley Radio Observatory Long Wavelength Array (OVRO-LWA). Key activities include...
This $182,965 five-year Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) focuses on studying the evolution of plasma waves in the Earth's magnetosphere and their impacts on space weather phenomena. The project aims to utilize multi-mission data to characterize the spatial and temporal properties of various wave modes and their role in driving particle acceleration and atmospheric effects. Additionally, the grant will support training future...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences provides $109,853 to Bucknell University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049) from March 1, 2023 to August 31, 2024. The funding supports a collaborative research effort between Bucknell University and Vassar College to study magnetic fields of planets beyond our solar system through observational and theoretical investigations of magnetic star-planet interactions...
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...
This Project Grant award of $400,000 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to Anderson University aims to improve understanding and forecasting of space weather events. The project, titled "EMBRACE-AGS-GROWTH: Modeling Space Weather as a Nonlinear Control System," employs innovative mathematical models and control systems theory to characterize the dynamic behavior of Earth's magnetosphere before and during geomagnetic storms. These storms can disrupt...
