Grants and Contributions

TSCC blends scientific learning with Indigenous knowledge, featuring sessions led by northern researchers, educators, and Tłı̨chǫ knowledge holders.

The program provides financing for incentives offered to consumers who buy or lease an eligible ZEV.

The Research Support Fund (RSF) helps universities, colleges and their affiliated research hospitals and institutes sustain and maintain a research environment which will enable them to make optimal use of the federal investment in academic research provided through the three federal granting agencies.

To do so, the project will include a needs assessment, remote and in person capacity building opportunities for learning and knowledge sharing, mentoring and peer support to develop a community of practice and an evaluation to share information on the promising practice with others so that they may replicate it or expand upon it.

It will address gaps in equitable early learning opportunities for children by supporting Early Childhood Educators (ECEs) as they provide trauma-informed, play-based early learning experiences.

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are brief, energetic flashes of radio waves emitted by unknown astrophysical objects located outside of our galaxy. The origins of these enigmatic transients remain one of the greatest mysteries in modern astrophysics. To further understand this phenomenon, AstroSat will observe a nearby repeating FRB source, located in an extragalactic globular cluster, across optical to X-ray wavelengths, utilizing AstroSat’s LAXPC, CZTI, SXT, and UVIT instruments. The team will perform simultaneous, high time resolution observations with sensitive radio telescopes, including CHIME, Effelsberg, and the GBT, to search for multiwavelength emission coinciding with FRB activity. AstroSat’s hard X-ray detectors will enable the search for X-ray emission from the FRB source with unprecedented sensitivity and perform critical tests of FRB models that will shed light on the origins of this source.

This project will be using new images from the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope on the Astrosat satellite mission to study the ultraviolet (UV) light from high mass stars in a nearby galaxy. Theories predict that this high-energy UV light is thought to heat the surrounding gas in the galaxy, but, until now, the combination of high-resolution UV maps (from Astrosat) and sensitive maps of the gas that can trace gas temperature (from a ground-based radio telescope) were not abailable simultaneously. The project will measure whether there is a signature of gas heating from high mass stars. This measurement is important for understanding how galaxies evolve: the current theory of galaxy evolution proposes that the radiation of high mass stars reduces the efficiency of star formation in a galaxy’s gas. This work will test whether the heating from the stars seen in the Astrosat data is sufficient to change gas conditions and potentially star formation efficiency.

The team will measure the hot stars in M31 to learn about the formation and structure of that galaxy.
