Team structureStructure

The final design and implementation of the ULLYSES program and the production of high-level data products will be undertaken by a Core Implementation Team (CIT), working in conjunction with Science Advisory Committee (SAC). The overall program will be coordinated by the CIT lead, who has the final authority for decisions. They will be assisted by an observing technical lead and data technical lead. The team leads are:

                          Julia Roman-Duval (Team CIT Lead), Charles Proffit (Observing Technical Lead) and Gisella de Rosa (Data Technical Lead).

...

The HST Mission Head, Tom Brown, and the Associate Director for Science, Neill Reid, will serve as a Program Advisory Council (PAC) to provide advice on high-level issues, as needed.

he The SAC comprises research scientists from STScI and the community who are committed to providing scientific advice to the CIT on scientific aspects of the implementation process, including the selection of appropriate targets, filter selection, distribution of exposure times, and the relative priorities of different analysis tools. The SAC will help define the high-level science products generated by the CIT. The SAC will advise the CIT on the scientific aspects of program implementation and will be briefed regularly on progress by the CIT Lead or their designate. Members of the SAC will not participate in any functional activities connected with the ULLYSES program implementation, and will not have access to either high-level data products or associated tools until those products and tools are released to the general community.
