This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences Project Grant award of $457,353 to The Ohio State University supports a program of data analysis and modeling to interpret the elemental abundance patterns of stars in the Milky Way and its dwarf satellite galaxies. The research, which runs from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026, aims to build a coherent picture of the stellar and galactic-scale phenomena that govern the synthesis of chemical elements. This work will...
This $447,644 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant awarded under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support a research team at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) to study the formation, transformation, and evolution of gas and young stars in the solar neighborhood. The key products of this 5-year project include: Developing an integrated 3D model of the gas and young stellar populations in the local Milky Way to enable high-resolution...
This Project Grant award, valued at $129,280.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program. The grant supports the creation of an NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) site in the Department of Physics at The Ohio State University. Through this 3-year program, the award will provide eight undergraduate students each summer with a 10-week immersive research experience in cutting-edge physics...
This $385,959 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research effort to improve understanding of the Sun's corona, the outermost layer of the solar atmosphere. The project aims to analyze data from five total solar eclipses spanning 2015-2024 and compare this observational data to advanced magnetohydrodynamic simulations. Key activities include measuring coronal electron temperature, density, and magnetic field...
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...
