This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences provides $269,690 to support research and education activities under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). A collaboration between the University of Nevada, University of California Los Angeles, and Arizona State University will develop advanced galaxy modeling tools and conduct cross-correlation analyses to maximize scientific return from upcoming telescopes studying the epoch of...
This three-year, $257,211 National Science Foundation project grant supports research and educational outreach related to modeling early galaxy formation and the epoch of reionization. Funded under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program, the collaborative effort between the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, University of California Los Angeles, and Arizona State University aims to develop advanced modeling tools to maximize scientific return from upcoming telescopes such as the...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049), will support a detailed characterization of 25 quasars from the early universe. The $356,087 award, granted on December 1, 2024, will enable the researchers to analyze a legacy multi-wavelength dataset collected from the world's largest telescopes, covering a wavelength range from X-ray to radio. This effort will advance the understanding...
This $129,943 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences will support an eight-week Research Experience for Undergraduates site at the University of California, Riverside focused on educating a new generation of astronomers. Eight student interns will conduct observational, theoretical, computational, and data-driven research addressing fundamental questions in modern astronomy. Interns will receive instruction in Python programming, data...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $487,320 to the University of Texas at Austin to study the formation and evolution of the first galaxies in the universe. The key objectives are to: 1) understand how the first galaxies assembled their stellar mass and what drove cosmic reionization in the early universe, and 2) develop advanced theoretical modeling and mapping tools for the 21-cm signal...
This $348,961 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research on the astrophysics of the obscured universe across cosmic time. The grant recipient, the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), will use multiple telescopes to understand how dust in distant galaxies affects our observations of the cosmos. The research aims to improve our understanding of how galaxies form and evolve over...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, through the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049), provides $598,900 in funding to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to support an eight-week Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site program in computational astrophysics. The program aims to recruit and train 10 students per year, primarily from community colleges, in astrophysical research methods and computational tools. The...
This $235,890 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will fund research investigating quasar variability through high-cadence spectroscopy. The University of Wisconsin-Madison will leverage spectroscopic monitoring data from ongoing Sloan Digital Sky Survey initiatives to measure properties of quasar accretion disk winds and outflows. Researchers will analyze ensemble variability characteristics of quasar emission lines...
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...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $420,240 Project Grant under its Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to the University of California, Merced to support a collaborative research project investigating how star formation is suppressed (quenched) in galaxies residing in distant massive clusters. The project will apply new analysis techniques to images from the Gemini Observations of Galaxies in Rich Early Environments (GOGREEN) survey to determine the spatial...
