First Announcement
XMM-Newton Workshop
The X-ray Mysteries of Neutron Stars and White Dwarfs
ESAC, Madrid, Spain
5 - 7 June 2024
Organised by the XMM-Newton Science Operations Centre of the European
Space Agency (ESA)
AIMS AND SCOPE OF THE MEETING
The X-ray emission from neutron stars and white dwarfs has been a
subject of extensive research, unveiling unique insights into the
high-energy phenomena occurring within these compact stellar remnants.
It offers invaluable insights into compact object formation, stellar
evolution, and the interplay between magnetic fields, radiation, and
matter in extreme conditions. In this meeting, experts from various
disciplines will delve into the latest advancements in understanding
the X-ray emission processes, its origin, and the astrophysical
implications associated with neutron stars and white dwarfs.
This workshop will explore the diverse X-ray emission mechanisms,
ranging from thermal emission due to accretion processes, magnetic
fields, and nuclear reactions, to non-thermal emission originating from
particle acceleration and magnetic reconnection events. X-ray spectra
and timing properties will be discussed in detail, enabling a deeper
understanding of the underlying emission mechanisms and the associated
astrophysical phenomena. The role of X-ray emission in the context of
binary systems will be discussed, investigating the interactions
between compact objects and their stellar companions.
