Science Interest Group
Cosmic Ray & Neutrino
The Cosmic Ray & Neutrino SIG will serve as a focal point and forum for the cosmic ray community to support current and future cosmic ray science. CRN SIG is open to the scientific community.
About CRN SIG
Assessing Current and Future Needs for Cosmic Ray Science in Space
The Cosmic Ray and Neutrino Science Interest Group (CRN SIG) will provide quantitative metrics and assessments to NASA with regard to current and future needs of the cosmic-ray astrophysics community.
The Cosmic Ray and Neutrino SIG will study major open science questions. CRN SIG will also survey current and planned (US and International) space-based and ground-based projects, investigate state-of-the-art capabilities, determine next generation technology needs, and evaluate potential science returns from new technologies and capabilities to develop a vision for the future of cosmic ray science in space.
