C0 = 28/03/2020 and that the installation and stand-alone testing of the AA2 components has
taken place at C0+44 months and the AA4 components at C0+67 months. With theseKey Science Projects:
• No4onal package of Key Science Projects developed in 2015 based on
the highest priority science objec,ves that were recommended by the
science community that were:
• Consistent with capabili,es of the SKA1 design
• Consistent with a realis,c observing schedule filled at approximately 50% for
the first 5 years of scien,fic opera,ons
• Indica,ve KSP policy (actual policy will be determined by SKAO Council)
• Only scien,sts from SKA member countries may lead a KSP
• KSP Leadership is guaranteed to be distributed amongst SKA members in
propor,on to their financial contribu,on
• KSP par,cipa,on (at the non-Leader level) is guaranteed to be distributed
amongst SKA members in propor,on to their financial contribu,on
• KSP par,cipa,on (at the non-Leader level) of SKA non-members is capped at
the value defined in the Access Policy

• Outcome of well-documented SKA1 science priori,sa,on process
• All objec,ves originate with the science community
• Review and strong endorsement by advisory bodies (SRP, SEAC)
• Should be viewed as representa(ve package of high-impact science
deliverables for the first five years of science opera,ons
• Actual list of high impact poten,al projects already much broader
• SWG number has grown from 8 to 13
• SWG membership has grown fourfold from 2014 to 2019
13KSPs: Next steps
• Further develop KSP concepts
• Regular workshops to provide a forum for open discussion of KSP concepts
• Support development of poten,al KSP collabora,ons
• There will ul,mately be a compe,,ve process of KSP proposal submission,
evalua,on and alloca,on
• Regular workshops to provide a forum for the key areas of interest of par,cular
communi,es to be presented, leadership aspira,ons to begin to be iden,fied and
resourcing strategies to begin development
• Maximizing commensality
• It is likely that the same data stream will serve mul,ple KSP or PI-led groups, each
with limited data rights to address specific scien,fic objec,ves
• Regular workshops to provide a forum for early discussion of support for such
commensal programs, including the development of efficient survey strategies
intending to maximise the scien,fic return of the KSP package
