### Attestation Aggregation
Some validators are selected to locally aggregate attestations with a similar `attestation_data` to their constructed `attestation` for the assigned `slot`.
Aggregation selection and the core of this duty are largely unchanged from Phase 0. Any additional components or changes are noted.
#### Broadcast aggregate
Note the timing of when to broadcast aggregates is altered in Phase 1+.
If the validator is selected to aggregate (`is_aggregator`), then they broadcast their best aggregate as a `SignedAggregateAndProof` to the global aggregate channel (`beacon_aggregate_and_proof`) three-fourths of the way through the `slot`-that is, `SECONDS_PER_SLOT * 3 / 4` seconds after the start of `slot`.
##### `AggregateAndProof`
`AggregateAndProof` is unchanged other than the contained `Attestation`.
```python
class AggregateAndProof(Container):
aggregator_index: ValidatorIndex
aggregate: Attestation
selection_proof: BLSSignature
```
##### `SignedAggregateAndProof`
`AggregateAndProof` is unchanged other than the contained `AggregateAndProof`.
```python
class SignedAggregateAndProof(Container):
message: AggregateAndProof
signature: BLSSignature
```

In addition to the core beacon chain responsibilities, Phase 1 adds an additional role -- the Light Client Committee -- to aid in light client functionality.
