Outline of Final Research Achievements

Scientific outputs expected in the future by high-precision astrometry such as JASMINE and Gaia were investigated by a core group of the research community formed by this grants-in-aid. Investigative commissions convened every year made it possible to crystallize the scientific outputs. Furthermore international cooperation and public workshops held by this grants-in-aid have led to enlarge the research community. The results obtained by this grants-in-aid allowed us to submit the mission proposal of Small-JASMINE to the public offering of small scientific satellite missions executed by ISAS/JAXA.
