The XMM-Newton Science Operations Centre is organising the Science
Workshop
Astrophysics of Hot Plasma from Extended X-ray Sources
12-14 June 2019
European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC), Madrid, Spain
- AIMS AND SCOPE OF THE MEETING -
Hot plasmas dominate the X-ray emission of supernova remnants, much of
the interstellar medium in galaxies, galactic halos and winds, and the
intra-cluster medium in clusters of galaxies. Plasma characteristics,
observed through their X-ray morphology and spectral properties,
reveal the physical processes at work and the structure and evolution
of these systems. XMM-Newton and Chandra have been accumulating rich
resources of emission line spectra with medium and high spectral
resolution. Building on this heritage, in the next decade the XRISM
mission and the Athena X-ray observatory will yield unprecedented
high-spectral resolution mapping of extended sources. Accurate plasma
codes will become even more essential for data interpretation.
This workshop aims to review our current understanding of these X-ray
plasmas, their modelling and their astrophysical implications. The
goal is to prepare the younger generation and to foster cooperation
between the participants on common astrophysics issues, on plasma code
requirements, modelling of X-ray spectra, and data reduction of
extended sources.
Topics:
- Supernova remnants
- Galaxies
- Clusters of galaxies
- Plasma codes
- Plasma modelling and spectral fitting
- Miscellaneous
