New Call for Participation in the Athena Working Groups

Dear Colleague,

Approximately 1 year ago the Athena Science Study Team (ASST) issued a call for membership of the Athena Working Groups.

To ensure that all interested scientists have an opportunity to participate in the mission, we have recently re-opened the application process at the following web site:

ATHENA 2028

The Working Groups are divided into a number of sub-panels (Topical Panels) covering specific subject areas. Usually, we would expect applicants to choose membership of one such Topical Panel. In exceptional circumstances, you may request membership of two panels, but in this case we would ask that you provide a justification.

The deadline for applications is 31 December 2015. Applications will be assessed soon after this with the aim to appoint new members in February 2016.

Thanks for your support.

The Athena Science Study Team
