Scientific Assessment Group for Experiments in Non-Accelerator Physics (SAGENAP)
Abstract
The Scientific Assessment Group for Experiments in Non-Accelerator Physics (SAGENAP) was assembled by the Division of High Energy Physics (DHEP) of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in response to the advice given by the High Energy Physics Advisory Panel (HEPAP). The group provides a standing review of the ongoing research program in non-accelerator physics. This review covers experiments funded by DOE, NSF, and NASA, and is attended by members of all agencies. It provides information to these three agencies. This report covers meetings held in March and November 1997 in Washington, D.C. The experiments reviewed were AUGER, Km3, AMANDA, CDMS II, AXIONS, ICARUS, GLAST, STACEE, CELESTE, STEREOSCOPIC AIR CERENKOV DETECTORS, and PION EYE at SUNSPOT. The second meeting concentrated on the AUGER proposal. This report contains summaries from the review letters written by members of the group and the recommendations based on their inputs. The meetings were chaired by Patricia Rankin of NSF with P.K. Williams of DOE acting as co-chair. In addition, there was agency representation from NASA. The charge to the group can be found in Appendix A. The membership of SAGENAP is given in Appendix B. Details of the meeting schedules can be found in Appendix C. The group members reported individually by letter to the Chair, who was responsible for assembling the final report.
