Science and Technology Interest Groups (SIGs & STIGs)

A Science Interest Group (SIG) is interested in a specific subfield of Cosmic Origins science. SIGs meet to discuss and share scientific results, analysis techniques, and science gaps, as well as how state-of-the-art instrumentation might be advanced in that subfield. SIGs identify data and technology needs that could enable advances in further scientific discovery. To join a SIG group, please email leadership by visiting the pages below.

Currently, the COPAG has three Science Interest Groups and two Science & Technology Interest Groups:
