Project Grant 2308041
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award supports the Tomographic Ionized-Carbon Mapping Experiment (TIME), an imaging spectrometer that will observe on the Arizona Radio Observatory 12-meter radio telescope at Kitt Peak. TIME will map large portions of the sky to probe the early epochs of the universe by measuring bright ionized carbon emission from galaxies during the Epoch of Reionization and by measuring carbon monoxide during the peak of star formation. The $199,162...

- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences awarded a $407,067 Project Grant to Cornell University to conduct collaborative research using the Tomographic Ionized-Carbon Mapping Experiment (TIME), an imaging spectrometer that will observe on the Arizona Radio Observatory 12-meter radio telescope. The 3-year grant, with a start date of September 1, 2023, will support scientific operations, data reduction pipeline development, and publication of results from TIME's...
- This $410,294 National Science Foundation project grant funds an undergraduate group research project led by the University of Arizona to conduct large-scale mapping of filaments and cores in nearby molecular clouds. The project aligns with the NSF Mathematical and Physical Sciences program's goals of advancing scientific knowledge and understanding of major problems in these fields. Specifically, the grant supports using the Arizona Radio Observatory 12m telescope to map the Taurus and Aquila...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $561,949 to Arizona State University (ASU) to advance the field of optical intensity interferometry using small telescopes and single photon detectors. The key objectives of the program are to: (i) Develop a time calibration system to enable automated measurements of photon correlations on small telescopes using commercial single photon counting detectors and...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences awarded a $497,792 Project Grant to the University of Arizona (doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents) to support research under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The grant aims to develop advanced machine learning techniques to extract cosmological information from mass maps generated by observing the gravitational lensing effects of dark matter. This research will enable more...
- 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 $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 $247,902 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research at the University of Arizona to model the atmospheric signatures of magmatic volcanism on temperate, Earth-like exoplanets. The project aims to determine the best spectral signatures of magmatic outgassing and how those signatures can be used to characterize the underlying exoplanets. Additionally, the award will fund the development of a new...
- This $505,312 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program will support research on near-infrared spectroscopy of distant galaxies using a new photonic OH suppression filter technology. The University of Maryland, College Park is the primary awardee and will utilize the Lowell Discovery Telescope to conduct observations of transient events like gamma-ray bursts. The project...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $243,178 to the University of Arizona (UA) to support the Tomographic Ionized-Carbon Mapping Experiment (TIME), an imaging spectrometer project. The TIME instrument will be deployed on the Arizona Radio Observatory 12-meter telescope at Kitt Peak to map large portions of the sky and probe the early epochs of the universe. Specifically, the project will measure bright ionized carbon emission from galaxies during the epoch of reionization and carbon monoxide during the peak of star formation, which will contribute to our understanding of how structure evolved in the universe. In addition to the scientific research, the award supports expanding student experiential learning and training opportunities from high school to graduate school in experimental astrophysics techniques. The project will run from September 2023 through August 2026.
