This $110,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049) to support a postdoctoral fellowship for research and education activities at the Lowell Observatory. The fellowship, awarded to Dr. Clara Brasseur, will involve studying the relationships between stellar properties, magnetic field strength and geometry, and observable characteristics of low-mass and ultracool dwarf stars. The...
This $110,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Astronomy and Astrophysics Postdoctoral Fellowship award, under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, supports a research and education program led by Caroline Huang at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory. The project aims to study the most massive Mira variable stars using large observational surveys, with the goal of establishing an independent and powerful new standard candle for improving measurements of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Astronomy and Astrophysics Postdoctoral Fellowship (AAPF) award, funded through the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, provides $110,000 to support a 3-year research and education project led by Joseph Golec at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. The project will use millimeter-wave observations to study the hot gas and dark matter within galaxy clusters, the most massive structures in the universe. Key objectives include...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $330,000 Postdoctoral Fellowship under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to Danielle Frostig at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. This 3-year project will fund Frostig's research program to conduct near-infrared surveys of potential sites of heavy element formation via r-process synthesis, including neutron star mergers, gamma-ray burst afterglows, and exotic supernovae. The project will also support...
This $110,000 Project Grant award was made by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program.
