- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program, with a total funding amount of $441,642, supports research to deepen the understanding of the final stages of stellar evolution, specifically focusing on red giants and their mass-shedding processes. The key objectives of this 2-year research project, which runs from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2026, are to: Employ very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations,...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $449,485 to the University of Virginia from October 2022 through September 2025. The funding supports collaborative research between teams in Virginia and New Mexico to investigate the nature and origin of massive young stars through a combined theoretical and observational approach. Over 100 very young, massive stars will be observed with radio telescopes to develop a...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $169,884 to the University of Virginia to conduct collaborative research on discriminating between galactic feedback models using next-generation observations. The project will incorporate an existing stellar feedback model (SMUGGLE) into the AREPO cosmological simulation code to self-consistently produce thousands of simulated galaxies that can be compared...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $253,363 to study the common envelope evolution process in binary star systems. The investigators will use telescopes and computer simulations to observationally map the initial and final conditions of this poorly understood but common stellar phenomenon. They will characterize a benchmark set of 52 high-probability post-common envelope binary systems located...
- This $560,337 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support collaborative research at the University of Arizona focused on improving our understanding of how convective mixing impacts the nature of gas giant exoplanet atmospheres. The project aims to develop computational simulation tools to investigate the physical, evolutionary, and observational consequences of convection for gas giant worlds, which...
- 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...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $509,959 Project Grant to the University of California, Merced under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program. This collaborative research grant will support a study on the evolving dynamics of star clusters within Milky Way-like galaxies. The research team will analyze advanced computer simulations to track the orbital dynamics and evolution of open star clusters, examining how the changing galactic environment...
- This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), will fund a collaborative research effort to investigate the orbits of eccentric warm Jupiter exoplanets. The $300,202 award, running from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, will be led by researchers from Indiana University and Northern Arizona University. The primary objectives of this research project are to (a) model the...
- This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), will support collaborative research to improve understanding of the common envelope evolution process in binary star systems. The investigators will use telescopes and computer simulations to study this poorly understood phenomenon, where a lower-mass star orbits within a larger, expanding star, resulting in dramatic energy exchange and mass ejection....
