This three-year National Science Foundation project grant of $189,753 awarded on September 1, 2022 supports research into the evolution of magnetic complexity in older sun-like stars under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). Principal investigators Metcalfe and Van Saders will obtain polarized spectra of 12 stars using the Potsdam Echelle Polarimetric and Spectroscopic Instrument at the Large Binocular Telescope and the Las Cumbres Observatory's Network of Robotic...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences provides $109,853 to Bucknell University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049) from March 1, 2023 to August 31, 2024. The funding supports a collaborative research effort between Bucknell University and Vassar College to study magnetic fields of planets beyond our solar system through observational and theoretical investigations of magnetic star-planet interactions...
This Project Grant award of $118,673 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports a collaborative research project focused on "Polarimetric Asteroseismology of Massive Hot Stars." A team of astronomers from the Monterey Institute for Research in Astronomy, Florida Gulf Coast University, SETI Institute, University of Maryland Baltimore County, and University of Wisconsin-Madison, along with international partners, will...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $300,000 project grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program to investigate magnetism and rotation in ultracool dwarfs and the smallest stars. With a completion date of November 2024, this funding will support research examining these phenomena in astronomical bodies through the lens of the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program's goal of strengthening the nation's scientific enterprise by increasing knowledge and understanding of...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $444,772 provides funding from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025 to study the evolution of magnetic complexity in old sun-like stars under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). Principal investigators Metcalfe and Van Saders from the University of Hawaii at Manoa will take polarized spectra of 12 stars using the Potsdam Echelle Polarimetric and Spectroscopic Instrument at the Large Binocular Telescope and the...
This Project Grant award of $220,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports a postdoctoral research and education program led by Sarah Blunt at the University of California, Santa Cruz. The award will fund a multi-pronged observational campaign to investigate the formation processes of "cold giant" exoplanets located far from their host stars. The research aims to refine the eccentricity distributions of...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $422,670 Project Grant to the Monterey Institute for Research in Astronomy (MIRA) to support a collaborative research effort on "Polarimetric Asteroseismology of Massive Hot Stars". This research project, funded under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, aims to determine the interior structures of massive hot stars by applying a new technique called polarimetric asteroseismology. The collaboration...
The Trustees of Boston University were awarded a two-year, $464,331 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049). The grant will fund research connecting multiwavelength variability of protoplanetary disks and their dynamic host stars through August 2023. As part of its mission to promote progress in the mathematical and physical sciences, the NSF Mathematical and Physical...
This $247,902 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research at the University of Arizona to model the atmospheric signatures of magmatic volcanism on temperate, Earth-like exoplanets. The project aims to determine the best spectral signatures of magmatic outgassing and how those signatures can be used to characterize the underlying exoplanets. Additionally, the award will fund the development of a new...
