- 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 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Astronomical Sciences will fund research to develop a unique catalog of open star clusters in the Milky Way galaxy through 2025. Led by Texas Christian University with $455,321 in funding, the research team will observe, compile, and analyze data on nearly all suitable open star clusters accessible through the Sloan Digital Sky Survey V and Gaia satellite. They will measure detailed abundances for over 20 elements to probe the...
- This $215,917 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049), will fund research at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to model the evolution of dense star clusters and gravitational-wave sources using cosmological simulations. The university researchers will create the first self-consistent, star-by-star models of dense star clusters with...
- This three-year, $263,272 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), will fund research to better understand galaxy cluster mergers through observational data and advanced hydrodynamical simulations of ten galaxy clusters. The California Institute of Technology will conduct deep, multi-probe observational studies of the selected clusters to map their total mass density, intracluster...
- This $153,169 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports a collaborative research project at Saint Martins University that aims to study the disintegration of globular clusters and their contribution to the metal-poor bulge of the Milky Way galaxy. The research team, comprising investigators from four primarily undergraduate institutions, will obtain detailed observations of 3,000 stars to measure their...
- This Project Grant award of $587,631.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences Program (CFDA 47.049) supports research to develop advanced computer models of dense star clusters. The research team at Northwestern University will use astronomy, theoretical astrophysics, high-performance computing, and machine learning to simulate the evolution of star clusters since the earliest stages of star formation in the distant universe. The focus is on...
- This federal Project Grant award, totaling $105,646, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to support a collaborative research project led by Seattle University. The research aims to confirm the origins of stars in the Milky Way's metal-poor bulge by spectroscopically measuring the elemental abundances of candidate globular cluster tidal debris stars. The project will involve obtaining detailed observations of...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $421,946 to Southern Methodist University (SMU) to develop a framework for simulating observed galaxies, galaxy clusters, and their gravitational lensing signals. The goal is to compare these simulated universes directly with observations from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) in order to infer the evolution of cosmic structure. This approach aims to overcome...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Astronomical Sciences awarded a $546,269 Project Grant to the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. The grant, funded under NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, supports research to study how star clusters form and disperse over time. The key products and services to be delivered through this 3-year award include: 1) developing semi-analytic models to predict cluster properties and mass loss; 2) comparing...
- This $262,273 Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to Texas A&M University. The funding will support a collaborative research project titled "A Matter of Timing: Star Formation Suppression Over the Last Half of Cosmic History". The project will study galaxies that have recently undergone a rapid shutdown of star formation, developing methods to identify these "post-starburst"...
