The purpose of the LIST is to provide input and guidance to NASA and ESA during the formulation phase that can be used to help assure the optimum scientific return from the bilateral LISA mission and to ensure a preparedness for analysing LISA data. The LIST is an international committee, nominally half selected by ESA and half selected by NASA.
