This $360,623 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under its Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to the University of Hawaii at Manoa. The award will fund a 5-year research project to study the formation and disruption of resonant planetary systems within our galaxy. The project will leverage a combination of cutting-edge observations, novel data analysis techniques, and rigorous numerical simulations to address key questions about the prevalence, stability, and evolution of these resonant planetary systems. The research aims to enhance understanding of planet formation processes, with a focus on determining whether the prominent radius gap between super-Earths and mini-Neptunes could be populated by giant impacts during resonant chain disruption. The award also includes plans for educational and public outreach activities in Hawaii to engage high school through graduate students in scientific computing and astronomy research.
