How to propose a new Study Group

Study Groups can originate internally from Commissions or individual IAA members or from an external request to the IAA.
IAA Members or Corresponding Members wishing to organize a Study Group Report must complete the brief

Proposal for Forming an IAA Study Group form

Some clarifying comments relative to completing the form:
• Members of the Study Team should reflect the international and interdisciplinary criteria of the Study. The Study Chair must be an IAA Member or CM. Other membership should be selected with the interest and proper expertise to perform a high quality study.
• The Overall Goal should be defined so that meaningful results will be ready for peer review within three years. This time period may be extended in special cases with the permission of the Vice President for Scientific Programs.
• Methodology should describe the process by which the Overall Goals will be achieved. This includes information gathering using mechanisms such as IAA Symposia and Technical Sessions, evaluation approach, possible interim reporting to focus the study, and format of the final report (Global Study, position paper, etc.).
• Target Community is intended to define who or what organizations could act on or react to the Report.
• Support Needed will not be applicable in most cases, but if certain organizational or resource needs are believed necessary to support the Study Methodology, they should be defined.

The Lead Commission Secretary should be available to assist the Study Group Proposer in developing a worthwhile and practical study proposal, and to expedite getting valuable studies underway. If needed, the Section Liaison members of the Commission should identify candidate Study Group members with the required expertise. The Lead Commission Chair should review the scope of the proposed Study for overlap with other Commissions and involve other Chairs, as appropriate, to assure proper representation and evaluation. The Commission Chairs have been delegated responsibility by the President for appointing Study Group Chairs and Members, with Presidential concurrence required for studies initiated by the President or by an external request. The formal appointment letters signed by the Commission Chairs will be sent by the IAA secretariat. After approval by an Academy Commission(s) the proposal is forwarded to the Vice President for Scientific Programs, who will inform the IAA Board of the creation of the Study Group and its membership, and report to the Board periodically on Study progress.

The complex interaction of the Solar magnetic field, electromagnetic radiation and particles emitted by the Sun and of galactic radiation with the interplanetary magnetic field and planetary atmospheres causes events and effects that are commonly referred to as space weather. Space weather can adversely affect spacecraft, satellites, electronic components and power-plant facilities, radio communications and other infrastructure elements on which human society is increasingly dependent. Over the last few decades a wide range of scientific programs and international initiatives have been conducted to study space weather. They have contributed to increase our understanding of space weather-related events and effects.
The purpose of this study is to review – from an international, scientific, economic and policy perspective – our present knowledge of space weather and its (socioeconomic) effects on human society, past and ongoing programmes and initiatives, identify possible existing gaps and untapped opportunities, and make recommendations and propose ways forward that could contribute to increase human society’s understanding of – and resilience to – space weather.

The First International Assessment Of Space Solar Power : Opportunities, Issues And Potential Pathways Forward

Now, more than ever, large-scale and sustainable new energy sources are needed to meet global needs while satisfying environmental concerns. During the past 40 years, various national studies have been performed of the concept of space solar power – i.e., using Solar Power Satellites (SPS) to harvest sunlight in space and deliver green energy via wireless power transmission to markets on Earth. During 2008-2010, the first international assessment of space solar power was conducted by a study group under the auspices of the International Academy of Astronautics. This document is the final report from the SSP study group; it addresses the technical feasibility of the concept, prospective markets and expected policy issues. The report describes and evaluates in some depth three alternative SPS concepts; it concludes with a high-level set of findings and specific recommendations for the consideration of the global space and energy community. Overall, the study group found that space solar power is technically feasible, but that economics of SPS can only be determined by means of international end-to-end systems studies, focused technology maturation and systems-level demonstrations. An international roadmap for realizing this goal is presented, which could achieve a major pilot-plant scale demonstration within 10-15 years.
