Subject:  Extension of Heliophysics 2050 Workshop White Paper Deadline

Earlier this year, the Heliophysics 2050 Workshop was moved to April 2021. This workshop is envisioned as an agency-enabled, community-driven event to help the science community better prepare for the next Solar and Space Physics Decadal Survey.


In order to mitigate some of the impact of COVID-19 on the community, the deadline for the submission of white papers to be used for planning the Heliophysics 2050 Workshop has been extended to September 11, 2020.

The agency understands the difficulties experienced by many community members in the current public health situation. Community members are strongly 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.

The workshop will examine current scientific understanding and what near-term investigations can enable and inform future investigations. From this scientific progression, the Workshop will create a "Science Web" that maps current understanding to the next set of science investigations which, in turn, lead to still later studies. These investigations will cover the range of work from basic research to operational efforts and would be agnostic to their mode of execution (e.g. theory, observations, spaceflight missions).

The white papers invited are to be short (no more than 3 pages) documents that succinctly identify a progression of linked scientific investigations starting from the current state-of-the-art and leading toward the desired state-of-the-art in 2050. There will be no limit on the number of white papers that an individual may submit, but the ideal white paper would contain as much of the links between and progression of related science investigations as possible.

The original call for white papers and links for submission can be found at https://www.hou.usra.edu/meetings/helio2050/whitepapers/. Information about the purpose and philosophy of the workshop itself can also be found on that webpage.

Any questions about the Heliophysics 2050 Workshop or white papers should be directed to Jared Leisner (jared.s.leisner at nasa.gov).
