An Assessment of Gravitational Physics

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The Board on Physics and Astronomy (BPA) will establish a Committee on Gravitational Physics to carry out an assessment of the field's status and plans for the future. The committee will examine such factors as the development of gravitational physics over the last decade and the relationship of gravitational physics to other scientific fields. In addition, the committee will examine the U.S. effort in gravitational physics compared to that of other countries and will attempt to identify the opportunities in the field over the next decade. The study will be part of the BPA's survey of physics.
