Multi-Platform Investigation of Cross-Scale Energy Transfer

The NASA/NSSC has a requirement for a Multi-Platform Investigation of Cross-Scale Energy Transfer. The objective is to use existing in situ and ground-based observations to build well-defined event studies that can identify measurement needs and observational gaps relevant to the future Links multi-scale geospace mission. The contractor shall perform duties such as identifying candidate substorm events, producing studies of current sheet formation and disruption, and developing an AI-ML-assisted event workflow. The period of performance is from 8/1/26 to 7/31/27. • Identify candidate substorm events with good ground-based observational coverage • Produce studies of current sheet formation and disruption using MMS and THEMIS in situ observations • Study magnetotail activity in relation to near-Earth particle injections, ionospheric particle precipitation, and other ionospheric responses • Develop an AI-ML-assisted event workflow to support event organization and feature extraction across different datasets
