Earth Science Mission Control Center Systems Study Project -
Advanced Multiplexed TES Arrays Project
X-ray measurements are critical for the understanding of cycles of matter and energy in the Universe, for understanding the nature of dark matter and dark energy, and for... -
The Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI): Update & Second Launch Project
Particle acceleration in solar flares and its contribution to coronal heating are among the main unsolved problems in heliophysics. Accelerated electrons in a plasma... -
US Participation in the Solar Orbiter Multi Element Telescope for Imaging and Spectroscopy (METIS) Project
The Multi Element Telescope for Imaging and Spectroscopy, METIS, investigation has been conceived to perform off-limb and near-Sun coronagraphy and is motivated by the aim of... -
Nano Dust Analyzer Project
We propose to develop a new highly sensitive instrument to confirm the existence of the so-called nano-dust particles, characterize their impact parameters, and measure their... -
Sounding rocket payload systems for in-situ measurements of ionosphere-thermosphere structure at small spatial scales Project
The methodology developed under this grant is primarily an effort to develop new sub-payload technologies and an inexpensive method of testing them. The three technical goals... -
Silicon Micromachined Heterodyne Array Receiver at 1.9 THz Project
"We are proposing a new concept of integrated component development technology at submillimeter wavelengths that will dramatically simplify the fabrication, assembly, and... -
