about X-ray Astronomy 1999 proceedings

List of Participants, Scientific Programme, Proceedings
BHs could be source of half of Universe's energy

X-ray Binaries and the X-ray background were the first two classes of cosmic X-ray source discovered. The X-ray binaries provide a natural laboratory for probing the extreme environments of black holes and neutron stars. A substantial fraction of the X-ray background is the superposition of AGN, which are powered by supermassive black holes. The Symposium will in two parts present observations from ASCA, ChandraAXAF, BeppoSAX, CGRO, ROSAT, and RossiXTE and ABRIXAS and will discuss their implications for the origin of the X-ray background and models for accretion on all scales.
