X-ray astronomy in the new millennium: a summary.
Recent X-ray observations have had a major impact on topics ranging from proto-stars to cosmology. They have also drawn attention to important and general physical processes that currently limit our understanding of thermal and non-thermal X-ray sources. These include unmeasured atomic astrophysics data (wavelengths, oscillator strengths, etc.), basic hydromagnetic processes (e.g. shock structu...
متن کاملTeV γ-ray Astronomy in the new Millennium
The field of TeV gamma-ray astronomy is reviewed with emphasis on its relation to the origin of cosmic rays. The discovery of TeV photons from supernova remnants and active galaxies has provided the first direct observational link between specific astrophysical objects and particle production at the TeV scale. TeV γ-ray observations constrain the high end of the electromagnetic spectrum, a regi...
متن کاملVHE Astronomy before the New Millennium
In planning this workshop the organizers suggested that a review of new TeV γ-ray observations at the beginning might obviate a need for separate submissions from individual groups (which would be presented anyway at the ICRC) and thus permit the program to be devoted to technical developments, interpretations and new programs. In practice, this did not work too well since many groups wished to...
متن کاملX-ray Astronomy of Stellar Coronae ⋆
X-ray emission from stars in the cool half of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is generally attributed to the presence of a magnetic corona that contains plasma at temperatures exceeding 1 million K. Coronae are ubiquitous among these stars, yet many fundamental mechanisms operating in their magnetic fields still elude an interpretation through a detailed physical description. Stellar X-ray astr...
