Exploring fundamental questions regarding the physical forces of the universe

TDAMM Study

The PhysCOS TDAMM Study is investigating organizational, programmatic, and technical means to maximize the scientific return from NASA’s contributions to the diverse, global, and evolving TDAMM ecosystem.

The TDAMM Study scope is decomposed into three sequential yearlong phases. Phase 1 focused on defining an implementation plan to deliver an initial set of NASA TDAMM science support capabilities by October 2025. Results of the Phase 1 study were published in a special issue of Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences. Subsequent study phases are examining means for improving coordination with U.S. ground-based observatories and institutions (Phase 2), and internationally (Phase 3).
