- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $358,311 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to Arizona State University (ASU) to conduct collaborative research on identifying the best stars for direct imaging planet surveys and performing an initial search to discover planets orbiting other stars. The research aims to identify isolated stars less than 1 billion years old, determine their ages, and target some of these young stars to search for new...
- This $621,104 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The grant supports research by the University of New Mexico to uncover the links between outer giant planets and their inner planetary systems. Key activities include: Using spectroscopy to track the motions of stars with known giant planets to determine if they have inner planets, and analyzing the atmospheric compositions of...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $318,000 to New Mexico State University (NMSU) to research the earliest stages of planet formation in the AB Aurigae star system. The key products and services to be delivered include: Generating detailed computer simulations that integrate physical processes such as gas/dust dynamics, heating/cooling, and gravitational forces to model the spiral arms,...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support a collaborative research effort between Georgia State University, Bridgewater State University, and Southern Connecticut State University. The $399,130 award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2028, will fund a project to observe a sample of nearly 5,000 nearby stars using speckle imaging techniques. The observations will focus on K dwarf...
- This $462,120 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports research to analyze the chemical profiles of dwarf stars and their exoplanets. The primary objectives are to: (a) develop a public, data-driven tool to precisely derive stellar elemental abundances from spectroscopic data; (b) measure elemental abundances for high-priority exoplanet host stars; and (c) produce exoplanetary atmosphere models accounting...
- This $546,489 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049) supports research at New Mexico State University (NMSU) aimed at using extended emission line nebulae to study the variability of active galactic nuclei (AGN) over long timescales of 10,000 to 100,000 years. The research program has two key components: (1) developing an efficient search algorithm to...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Astronomical Sciences, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), will fund a $697,725 project over 3 years to detect and characterize new low-mass planets orbiting distant stars. The award will support a team at San Francisco State University, which will use the EXPRES high-precision radial velocity spectrograph to find small, long-period planets in systems similar to our own solar system....
