We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.

The funding information displayed below comes from the NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Examples are nova explosions, Wolf-Rayet stars, and virtually all red giant stars. In the course of time, dust grains intermingle with the interstellar medium, they undergo changes in structure, and they become incorporated in such objects as comets and meteoroids. The Principal Investigators (PIs) propose to continue with their current NSF-funded program of infrared observations of astro- physical dust grains. They will determine the chemical compositions, mineral properties, and size distributions of the grains in the three environments in which they are know to occur: stellar systems, interstellar medium, and solar system. Differences in the grains' properties are expected to yield information about the production and processing of condensable elements in the Galaxy due to stellar evolution. The results may help explain why supernova shocks and heating of the interstellar medium by young stars do not destroy interstellar dust, as theory predicts. Show summary Hide summary	0.915
1993 — 2001	Gehrz, Robert [⬀] Ney, Edward Jones, Terry (co-PI) [⬀] Jones, Terry (co-PI) [⬀]	N/AActivity Code Description: No activity code was retrieved: click on the grant title for more information	Infrared Studies of Transient Events: Classical Novae and Variable Stars @ University of Minnesota-Twin Cities Gehrz, Robert 95-28336 Classical novae and luminous evolved (post main sequence) stars are important sources of processed material that is recycled to the interstellar medium (ISM) in circumstellar outflows during stellar evolution. Quantitative information about the dust and gas ejected in these outflows is necessary to provide fundamental constraints on models of Galactic chemical evolution. Infrared (IR) photometry and spectroscopy are particularly powerful tools for evaluating the abundances of both solid and gaseous phases of circumstellar material. IR spectrophotometry, imaging and polarimetry can be used to deduce the physical characteristics of the circumstellar outflows and of the grains that form within them. A three year extension is planned to the University of Minnesota IR group's program to study circumstellar dust and gas through IR observations of the temporal development of classical nova explosions and the transient activity of luminous IR variable stars. The studies will characterize the nucleation and growth of astrophysical dust grains in circumstellar outflows, asses the contributions of solid and gas-phase matter that novae and IR variable stars make to the ISM, and provide information about the stages of stellar evolution that preceded the mass loss process. Successful fulfillment of many of the program objectives requires prompt observations of sudden, transient activity at many wavelengths. The study will build upon previous observations and will benefit from their capabilities to obtain timely, remote and simultaneous multi-wavelength observations of transient events with telescopes in Minnesota, Wyoming and Arizona. *** Show summary Hide summary	0.915
