2 New Members of the SOFIA Users Group (Former SSSC) Eric Becklin SOFIA Chief Science Advisor SSSC NASA Ames May 11, 2011

3 Outline of Material Motivation for going from SSSC to SUG Present members of the SSSC Proposed make up of SOFIA User’s Group (SUG) What old members need to be replaced Proposed membership with TBD’s How to get good TBD’s Other issues

4 In the JSPP-2, the SSPC’s primary task is to monitor the scientific operation of SOFIA, provide feedback on scientific performance and policies. They are the scientific oversight committee. The SUG is to review the scientifically relevant technical performance of the SOFIA observatory and to provide technical feedback. The SUG represents the user community. The SSSC was put in place for development of SOFIA we are now starting operations. Motivation for Transition from SSSC to SUG

5 Page 5 Present Members of SSSC Mark Morris (Co-Chair, UC Los Angeles) Urs Graf (Co-Chair, University of Cologne) John Bally (University of Colorado) Ted Bergin (University of Michigan) Imke De Pater (UC Berkeley) Robert Gehrz (University of Minnesota) Alfred Krabbe (DSI) Margaret Meixner (Space Telescope Science Institute) Keith Noll (Space Telescope Science Institute) Instrument PIs (ex-officio members, non voting)

6 Page 6 Proposed Makeup of the SUG 10 Users from the community…..2 who would be from Germany. 2 members of the present instrument teams

7 Page 7 Present members that should be replaced Mark Morris (Been a member of and on for 15 years) Alfred Krabbe (Present Director of the DSI) Margaret Meixner (Member of the SSPC) Instrument PIs (all ex-officio members except for 2)

8 Page 8 Proposed Members Robert Gehrz (Co-Chair, University of Minnesota) Urs Graf (Co-Chair, University of Cologne) John Bally (University of Colorado) Ted Bergin (University of Michigan) Imke De Pater (UC Berkeley) Keith Noll (Space Telescope Science Institute) TBD (US User) TBD (German User) TBD (US Instrument PI)

9 Page 9 How to get Good new members: Present Users Gehrz (for Humphries) Harvey Looney Lundquist (for Kubulnicky) Werner (presently SSPC so not good) Whittney (for Tan) Cole/Rebull Rubin Neufeld

10 Other good people and other considerations All PI’s and CoI’s that had proposals excepted or proposed Well known Herschel and Spitzer users. (those that have given talks at Dan Lester’s tele-talks.) We need to get 2 Germans…..best done by DSI or GSWG.

11 Page 11 Other Issues The members are appointed by Erick Young in consultation with Hans Zinnecker. The SUG reports to Erick Young. Do we have enough definition of work in the charter to get good members? For example: Future instruments will not be directly related to the SOFIA Users group. Relationship to the GSWG. We need a written charter for the SUG.
