Schedule

Each discussion is allocated 45 minutes. Leaders are expected to wrap up their discussion by 25 minutes and leave 20 minutes for discussion. Recall that the purpose of the meeting is to explore synergies between TDA (photometric surveys) and SDSS Phase V. Start by outlining the key problems in the field (the science motivation) and then suggest a plausible path to solving this using TDA+SDSS-V. Explore if the TDA survey should be slaved to SDSS-V (or less likely the other way around). A desirable outcome of the workshop is to identify unique science that results from combining TDA and dynamic spectroscopy, especially in stellar and AGN astronomy.
