Microquasars: summary and outlook

Microquasars are compact objects (stellar-mass black holes and neutron stars) that mimic, on a smaller scale, many of the phenomena seen in quasars. Their discovery provided new insights into the physics of relativistic jets observed elsewhere in the universe, and in particular, the accretion–jet coupling in black holes. Microquasars are opening new horizons for the understanding of ultralumino...

Epilogue: Summary and Outlook

Open Journal of Big Data (OJBD) is an open access journal addressing aspects of Big Data, including new methodologies, processes, case studies, poofs-of-concept, scientific demonstrations, industrial applications and adoption. This editorial presents three articles in the second issue. The first paper is on Big Data in the Cloud. The second paper is on Statistical Machine Learning in Brain Stat...

Summary and outlook

Summary & Outlook : Particles and Cosmology

We review new results on strong and electroweak interactions, flavour physics, cosmic rays and cosmology, which were presented at this conference, focussing on physics beyond the Standard Models. Special emphasis is given to the Higgs sector of the Standard Model of Particle Physics and recent results on high-energy cosmic rays and their implications for dark matter.

Tau Physics 2006: Summary & Outlook

A large amount of new results have been presented at TAU2006. The highlights of the workshop, the present status of a few selected topics on lepton physics (universality, QCD tests, Vus determination from τ decay, g − 2, ν oscillations, lepton-flavour violation) and the prospects for future improvements are briefly summarized.
