The University of Delaware received a $376,241 Project Grant award, effective June 15, 2026, through the National Science Foundation's Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). This collaborative research award funds the operation and maintenance of the Simpson Neutron Monitor Network facility, a ground-based particle detection system that monitors cosmic ray intensity striking Earth's atmosphere. The network generates critical data products including real-time neutron count rates, pre-archived and archived datasets with multiple temporal resolutions, and high-resolution datasets available upon request. Additionally, the facility provides specialized products such as the Ground Level Enhancement alert system, which delivers real-time notifications of solar energetic particle events. The Simpson Neutron Monitor Network supports a broad interdisciplinary research community conducting investigations into solar energetic particle anisotropy, energy spectrum measurements of solar and galactic cosmic rays, and detection of solar-flare-neutron events. These data products serve space science researchers, space weather forecasters, and the microelectronics industry, among other users. The facility plays a key role in the national multipronged plan to identify, characterize, and mitigate space weather events and their effects on infrastructure, society, and government functions. The award period extends through May 31, 2029, and integrates operations, maintenance, data management, and data product delivery.Summary
