This proposal supports meetings and other activities of the National Academy of Science's Board on Physics and Astronomy (BPA). The role of the Board is to identify important new developments at the scientific forefronts, foster interactions with other fields, strengthen connections to technology and facilitate effective service to the nation by the scientific community. Members of the BPA are drawn from universities, industry and federal laboratories. Meetings are devoted to evaluating activities being carried out under its auspices, discussing critical issues and developing new initiatives. In general, studies initiated by the BPA focusing on particular areas of physics and astronomy are carried out by ad hoc groups of experts in those areas. Reports produced by these groups will have considerale impact in shaping the future directions of the field.

该提案支持国家科学院物理学和天文学委员会（BPA）的会议和其他活动。该委员会的作用是确定科学前沿的重要新发展，促进与其他领域的互动，加强与技术的联系，并促进科学界为国家提供有效服务。BPA的成员来自大学、工业和联邦实验室。会议专门用于评价在其主持下开展的活动，讨论关键问题和制定新的倡议。一般来说，由BPA发起的侧重于物理学和天文学特定领域的研究由这些领域的特设专家组进行。这些小组编写的报告将对确定该领域的未来方向产生重大影响。
