CEDAR email: Heliophysics 2050 Workshop and Call for White Papers

[Astrid Maute]

The Heliophysics 2050 Workshop is an agency-enabled, community-driven event
to help the science community better prepare for the next Decadal Survey.



It will be held in May 2021. The event is intended to be an in-person
meeting with a strong virtual attendance option. Organizers are monitoring
the COVID-19 situation, and contingency plans for a fully virtual meeting
will be made should they be necessary.



*Purpose and Scope*



The workshop will focus on discussing a strategic, multi-decadal science
framework for solar and space physics. The community will create a cohesive
science strategy to identify:



   1. Essential science investigations necessary for major science
   advancements.
   2. Research and capability development needed to meet science
   investigation requirements.
   3. Research needed in the next decade to prepare for long-term research
   goals.
   4. Work needed to ensure a pipeline from basic research to
   pre-application research and then into operational needs, including the
   operations-to-research loop that strengthens forecasting and other
   predictive capabilities.



*Call for White Papers*



The workshop discussions will be based on the science needs identified in
community white papers. Submissions are encouraged to advance and expand
the field of solar and space physics.



Submission details can be found on the workshop website:
https://www.hou.usra.edu/meetings/helio2050/.



Community members are encouraged to proactively involve colleagues who may
be experiencing significant time constraints due to the COVID-19 situation
that would allow participation in but prevent the leading of white papers.



Create a profile and submit white papers via the USRA meeting portal:
https://bit.ly/Helio2050.



White papers are due September 2, 2020, 5:00 p.m. U.S. Central Daylight Time
<http://www.hou.usra.edu/meetings/images/timezone.jpg> (GMT -5).



Questions about the Heliophysics 2050 Workshop or its rescheduling should
be directed to Jared Leisner (jared.s.leisner at nasa.gov).



Questions regarding the white paper submission process should be directed
to USRA Meetings (publish at hou.usra.edu).
