Title: NASA/JPL plans for fundamental physics research in space
Abstract: In 1998, about 100 researchers met twice to develop plans for the future in this research area. The results of these meetings have been collected in a package titled “A Roadmap for Fundamental Physics in Space”. A summary of the Roadmap will be presented along with an overview of the current program. Research is being performed in Low Temperature and Condensed Matter Physics, Laser Cooling and Atomic Physics, and Gravitational and Relativistic Physics. There are currently over 50 investigators in the program of which 8 are being evaluated as potential flight experiments. The number of investigators is expected to grow further during the next selection cycle, planned to start toward the end of this year. In the near future, our investigators will be able to take advantage of long duration experimentation in Space using a suite of different carriers under development.
