LISA APP - Proposal T. Bauer LISA, VIRGO NIKHEF makes strategic choice for APP – (Inter)national priority (FOM) – Beyond LHC NIKHEF commitment – APP about 30% of program – Personnel – 2006: 7 FTE – 2010: 19 FTE – Annual budget – 2006: 830 k€ – 2010: 1630 k € NIKHEF responsibilities – ANTARES/KM3NET – LISA and VIRGO VU responsibility – Start effort on gravitational physics – JvdB, TK, HJB (and JWvH)
