1. Action Items
Following these success of VSOP, science targets of VSOP-2 approach the central region of AGN.
studies of accretion disks and jets in AGN
studies of non-thermal emission from YSOs
And we revenge the maser observations.
the highest resolution studies of Galactic masers and extragalactic megamasers.
And the capability of other observations have been discussing.

2. TS meeting A/I s (1/5)
Assess frequency coverage at 22GHz vs. science goals, and decide whether lower frequency boundary should be changed to be lower than 21.5 GHz (water at z=0.03). Murata, 1 December 2006.
GHz seems to be OK. We are also investigating to shift the frequency lower change this to GHz.
Make informal mission request to Europe about the contributions desired from Europe. Hirabayashi/Gurvits, 11 December 2006.
There was an directors meeting between JAXA/ NASA/ ESA/ FSA(Russia) in January 23. and we made some materials about ASTRO-G for JAXA director.
We also have ESA-ISAS/JAXA science meeting in Feb. 28th - March ASTRO-G is one of agenda items.

Will be present in this meeting
Generate agreed-on link budgets with common assumptions, for different tracking stations and antennas. Kono / Langston / Lopez Fernandez, 15 December 2006.

Done by mail from Jon on Dec 10th.
Draft common tracking station/link design and specification. Murata/Kono, 31 December 2006.
Open. Kono-san will distribute initial version soon. One of the discussion item in the meeting.
Provide updated science case. Hagiwara, 30 November Makes use of ARISE Executive Summary, to be provided by Ulvestad.
Update have already done once, but update continued. I realize that a version of the science case have already send Leonid to use for European community.
