X-ray Astronomy 2009
Present status, multi-wavelength approach and future perspectives

Third in a decadal series of X-ray astronomy conferences held in Bologna, the meeting will highlight the contributions of XMM-Newton, Chandra and Suzaku observatories over the last ten years and celebrate the International Year of Astronomy (IYA2009). We plan to address major observational and theoretical aspects of X-ray emission from a wide range of cosmic sources. Emphasis will be given to multiwavelength studies of cosmic sources and associated synergies with major facilities at all wavelengths, and on the perspectives for future high-energy astrophysics missions.
