The on sender adaptor has two forms:

- [(1.1)](#1.1)

  on(sch, sndr),
which starts a sender sndr on an execution agent
belonging to a scheduler sch's associated execution resource and
that, upon sndr's completion,
transfers execution back to the execution resource
on which the on sender was started[.](#1.1.sentence-1)

- [(1.2)](#1.2)

  on(sndr, sch, closure),
which upon completion of a sender sndr,
transfers execution to an execution agent
belonging to a scheduler sch's associated execution resource,
then executes a sender adaptor closure closure with the async results of the sender, and
that then transfers execution back to the execution resource
on which sndr completed[.](#1.2.sentence-1)

The name on denotes a pipeable sender adaptor object[.](#2.sentence-1)

For subexpressions sch and sndr,on(sch, sndr) is ill-formed if any of the following is true:

- [(2.1)](#2.1)

decltype((sch)) does not satisfy [scheduler](exec.sched#concept:scheduler "33.6 Schedulers [exec.sched]"), or

- [(2.2)](#2.2)

decltype((sndr)) does not satisfy [sender](exec.snd.concepts#concept:sender "33.9.3 Sender concepts [exec.snd.concepts]") andsndr is not
a pipeable sender adaptor closure object ([[exec.adapt.obj]](exec.adapt.obj "33.9.12.2 Closure objects")), or

- [(2.3)](#2.3)

decltype((sndr)) satisfies [sender](exec.snd.concepts#concept:sender "33.9.3 Sender concepts [exec.snd.concepts]") andsndr is also a pipeable sender adaptor closure object[.](#2.sentence-2)

Otherwise, if decltype((sndr)) satisfies [sender](exec.snd.concepts#concept:sender "33.9.3 Sender concepts [exec.snd.concepts]"),
the expression on(sch, sndr) is expression-equivalent to:transform_sender(*query-with-default*(get_domain, sch, default_domain()), *make-sender*(on, sch, sndr)) except that sch is evaluated only once[.](#3.sentence-1)

For subexpressions sndr, sch, and closure, if

- [(4.1)](#4.1)

decltype((sch)) does not satisfy [scheduler](exec.sched#concept:scheduler "33.6 Schedulers [exec.sched]"), or

- [(4.2)](#4.2)

decltype((sndr)) does not satisfy [sender](exec.snd.concepts#concept:sender "33.9.3 Sender concepts [exec.snd.concepts]"), or

- [(4.3)](#4.3)

closure is not a pipeable sender adaptor closure object ([[exec.adapt.obj]](exec.adapt.obj "33.9.12.2 Closure objects")),

the expression on(sndr, sch, closure) is ill-formed;
otherwise, it is expression-equivalent to:transform_sender(*get-domain-early*(sndr), *make-sender*(on, *product-type*{sch, closure}, sndr)) except that sndr is evaluated only once[.](#4.sentence-1)
