This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $291,606 to Siena College from August 15, 2023 to July 31, 2026. The project aims to better understand how a galaxy's gas supply and star formation activity are altered as it moves through the cosmic web to cluster centers. Key objectives include quantifying environmental quenching of star formation, determining how the cosmic...
The National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences awarded a $903,802 Project Grant to the University of Kansas Center for Research Inc. to support research titled "Collaborative Research: Going Green at High Resolution - Spatially Deconstructing Environmental Quenching Over 9 Billion Years." Principal Investigators Rudnick and Wilson will investigate how star formation is suppressed in distant galaxy clusters using new analysis techniques on images from the Gemini...
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...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program provides $262,204 to support a collaborative research project studying galaxies that recently shut down their star formation. The research team, led by the University of Colorado Boulder, will develop methods to identify hundreds of massive galaxies that quenched their star formation within the last billion years and use multi-wavelength data to measure their dust, gas, and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences Project Grant award of $512,912 to Arizona State University (ASU) supports a 3-year research program to study the evolution of galaxies in high-redshift clusters. The project will utilize deep observations from the Atacama Large Sub/Millimeter Array (ALMA), Hubble Space Telescope (HST), and Very Large Telescope (VLT) to map star formation, measure baryon fractions, evaluate disk stability, and identify quenching...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $262,273.00 and granted by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), supports a collaborative research project to study galaxies that have recently ceased their star formation. The research team, led by Texas A&M University, will develop new methods to identify these "post-starburst" galaxies and use multi-wavelength data to measure their dust, gas, and active galactic...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences Project Grant award of $433,221.00 to the University of Illinois aims to advance understanding of star formation processes in galaxies. The research team will spatially resolve connections between the cold molecular gas fuel and declining star formation rates in aging galaxies, using a combination of observational data and computer simulations. They will leverage recently completed surveys and state-of-the-art...
This $578,577 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) on August 15, 2023. The award supports collaborative research to spatially resolve the mechanisms driving star formation quenching in galaxies using molecular gas observations. The project will leverage recently completed galaxy surveys and state-of-the-art simulations to investigate whether the cessation of star...
This $539,342 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences will support research into the unexpectedly high number of bright, rapidly star-forming galaxies observed at the cosmic dawn. The award recipient, Princeton University, will conduct simulations and analytical modeling to understand the physical conditions that could explain these observations, particularly in the context of massive dark matter halos at high redshift. The research aims...
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...
