- This federal Project Grant award for $346,321 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program supports collaborative research between the University of Colorado at Boulder and Yale University to study the properties of galaxies in groups using computer simulations and machine learning methods. The goal is to better understand the processes of star formation, stellar feedback, chemical enrichment, and active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback within galaxies...
- This $206,240 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences will fund research and educational activities to advance understanding of galaxy formation and evolution processes through multi-wavelength studies of circumgalactic media (CGM). Specifically, the University of Colorado researchers will (1) use machine learning to interpret new X-ray data in light of hydrodynamical simulations to constrain CGM physics, (2) explore using radio and fast radio...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $733,325 Project Grant to Yale University through its Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The grant will support an extended suite of cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical simulations to resolve the filaments and intergalactic medium (IGM) and accurately model their evolution. This research aims to provide a detailed understanding of how gas accretion from the cosmic web fuels star formation and drives the evolution of galaxies,...
- This $590,974 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports a research project at New York University (NYU) focused on advancing theoretical approaches for analyzing the spatial clustering of galaxies. The key objectives are to: (1) extend the Vlasov Perturbation Theory (VPT) formalism to model the matter bispectrum and redshift-space distortions; (2) incorporate VPT predictions into modeling galaxy power...
- The University of Connecticut received a $598,336 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to develop advanced computer simulations that will lead to a better understanding of galaxies, supermassive black holes, and the evolution of the universe. The 5-year research project, which began on September 1, 2025, will focus on two key areas: (1) advancing physically predictive models of galaxies at sub-parsec resolution, and...
- Yale University was awarded a $332,717 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to advance understanding of the physics of gaseous halos surrounding galaxies. The researchers will lead a coordinated effort combining state-of-the-art galaxy simulations with new multi-wavelength survey data to advance knowledge of the physical processes shaping the circumgalactic medium over cosmic...
- This $457,396 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will fund collaborative research to create computer models of the earliest galaxies and supermassive black holes in the universe. The research aims to better explain recent observations of distant, massive galaxies that current models cannot fully account for. Through advanced simulations using the ENZO-E code, the project will investigate the...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), provides $329,659 to the University of California, Irvine to conduct collaborative research on the formation of disk galaxies over cosmic time. The research aims to understand the physics behind the transition from early, non-disk galaxies to the disk-shaped galaxies we observe today, including the roles of galaxy potentials, interstellar medium evolution, and other...
- This five-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences provides $527,050 to the University of Massachusetts Amherst to establish coherent frameworks for understanding massive galaxy formation and promote inclusive astronomy. Under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the investigator will use data from the Large Millimeter Telescope and Subaru Telescope to map the distribution of galaxies and molecular gas throughout...
- This $539,342 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences will support research into the unexpectedly high number of bright, rapidly star-forming galaxies observed at the cosmic dawn. The award recipient, Princeton University, will conduct simulations and analytical modeling to understand the physical conditions that could explain these observations, particularly in the context of massive dark matter halos at high redshift. The research aims...
