The following may be of interest.  Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is still a long way off (2040+), but it’s now a big priority for the US / NASA following the 2020 decadal review.    Despite the name, it will be useful for extragalactic science. Pollux is the proposed European-led UV spectropolarimeter for the HWO.

[Apologies if you receive this message more than once.]

Dear all,

You receive this email because you were registered to one or more of the former Pollux mailing lists for LUVOIR, or have shown interest for Pollux in some way (e.g. attending a Pollux workshop). Since the project has now become Pollux for HWO, a new consortium has been set up, new working groups have been created, etc. The old (LUVOIR) mailing lists are not being used anymore and will be deleted, but new mailing lists have been created. If you wish (to continue) to be part of the Pollux consortium, its science and/or payload consortia, and/or would like to join a science WG, please register to one or more of the corresponding lists below.
To register to a list, send an email to sympa at lam.fr<mailto:sympa at lam.fr> with an empty body and a subject line of the form:
subscribe list Firstname Lastname
where you should replace "Firstname Lastname" by your name and "list" by the mailing list you want to subscribe to. To subscribe to several lists, you should send several emails (one per list).

The available mailing lists are:
pollux.consortium            for the global Pollux consortium
pollux.science at lam.fr<mailto:pollux.science at lam.fr>         for the Pollux science consortium
pollux.payload at lam.fr<mailto:pollux.payload at lam.fr>         for the Pollux payload consortium
pollux.swg-stars at lam.fr<mailto:pollux.swg-stars at lam.fr>        for the Science Working Group about Stars
pollux.swg-planets at lam.fr<mailto:pollux.swg-planets at lam.fr>        for the Science Working Group about Exoplanets (including solar system planets)
pollux.swg-cosmic at lam.fr<mailto:pollux.swg-cosmic at lam.fr>        for the Science Working Group about Cosmic ecosystems (ISM, IGM, CGM, galaxies, cosmological probes,...)

Please feel free to share this message with your European or American colleagues who may be interested in joining the Pollux at HWO consortium.

Thanks,

Coralie Neiner & Jean-Claude Bouret
