PASAG (2009) Criteria - use in developing the program
The science addressed by the project is necessary
Addresses fundamental physics
At least one compelling result or preponderance of solid, important results. Check that anticipated results would not be marginal…
Discovery space: large leap in capabilities, significant new discovery space, possibility of important surprises
Particle physicist participation is necessary
Transformative techniques and know-how have a major, visible impact; project would not happen otherwise
Leadership is higher priority than participation
Scale matters, particularly for projects at the boundary of particle physics and astrophysics
Relatively small projects with high science per dollar help ensure scientific breadth while maintaining program focus on the highest priorities
Programmatic issues
International context: cooperation vs duplication/competition
Readiness, risk, timeliness
