This $460,851 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports a research project titled "MAUNA: Multiphase Analysis of (U)LIRG Nuclear Activity". The project will analyze new observations of merging galaxies to better understand the dynamics of gas movement and the impact on galaxy evolution. The research will leverage new Keck and JWST integral-field spectroscopic observations to study the hot ionized and warm...
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 National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $450,358 Project Grant to Rutgers, The State University, located in New Brunswick, NJ, under the agency's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The funding supports a 3-year investigation into how interacting dark matter may affect galaxy formation and evolution. The research team will use high-resolution galaxy simulations to compare the observable characteristics of galaxies in a cold dark matter paradigm versus one with...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $232,374 Project Grant to Rutgers, The State University, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). This three-year grant, awarded on July 15, 2023 and running through June 30, 2026, supports a research program focused on the mathematical analysis of the Einstein equations within the interior of black holes. The ultimate objective is to provide a rigorous proof of the Strong Cosmic Censorship Conjecture within the context...
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...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $152,862 Project Grant under its Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey - Newark Division. The grant will fund research focused on addressing open problems in geometric analysis and exploring their applications in fields such as geometry, topology, and mathematical physics. Key objectives include developing novel approaches in the regularity theory for linear and fully nonlinear...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) grant award under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $270,796 to the University of Massachusetts to conduct a comprehensive survey of a large sample of candidate dusty starburst galaxies in the early universe. The main objectives are to determine accurate redshifts and positions, and define a statistically significant sample of galaxies at z > 6. This will involve deep optical and near-infrared follow-up observations to...
This $346,372 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to better understand the interaction between interstellar gas, supernova explosions, and massive young stars in nearby galaxies. Funded under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the award will support observation, processing, and analysis associated with the Local Group L-Band Survey, an 1,800-hour Very Large Array survey of six northern Local Group galaxies including Andromeda. The survey will...
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 Project Grant of $322,258 will support the Local Group L-Band Survey, a major new 1,800-hour observational survey of six northern Local Group galaxies using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array. Conducted under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the survey simultaneously maps the 21-cm hydrogen line and 1-2 GHz radio continuum emission to study interactions between the interstellar medium, star formation, and stellar feedback at an...
