This three-year project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $134,443 to support collaborative research titled "SHINE: Where are Particles Accelerated in Coronal Jets?". The research aims to enhance understanding of how energy is produced by the Sun and accelerated in interplanetary space by investigating where electrons are accelerated in coronal jets originating near solar...
This $473,175 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences supports research by the Bay Area Environmental Research Institute (BAER Institute), a non-profit research organization, and the University of Alabama, Huntsville. The funding will be used to analyze observations of sunspots from the NSF's Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST) to better understand the dynamics of small-scale jets and bright dots in and around sunspot penumbrae....
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $265,312 to American University to address key science questions regarding particle acceleration in coronal jets and their escape into the heliosphere. The award supports an observational and theoretical study combining high-quality observations with state-of-the-art simulations. Researchers will select and analyze coronal jet events at...
This Project Grant award, valued at $144,697.00 and provided by the NASA Science Mission Directorate (CFDA 43.001 - Science), supports research to identify and analyze solar jets using citizen science methodologies. The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC will lead this 3-year effort, which aims to: Identify all detectable solar jets in observations from the Solar Dynamics Observatory and derive their size and duration distributions. The thermal energy content of these jets...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, totaling $357,172, supports research into small-scale ejections in the sun's photosphere through chromosphere and corona from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The award is being administered by the New Jersey Institute of Technology under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic atmospheric and ocean sciences...
This $517,046 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on plasma turbulence and heating in the solar chromosphere. The investigators will carry out theoretical analysis and computer simulations to test the hypothesis that small-scale plasma processes, known as the thermal Farley-Buneman instability, cause heating in the coolest parts of the Sun's atmosphere. The research team will use observational data...
