Event E16: The Transient X-Gamma-ray Sky: Recent
Results and Future Directions
--> |
|
The last 10 years represent a golden age for X and
Gamma Ray Astronomy. Many scientific topics have been addressed and
new windows of investigation are emerging. The large fields of view
of instrumentation on board INTEGRAL, SWIFT, AGILE and more recently
FERMI, allow for a much better knowledge of the transient sky on
different time and energy scales.
The aim of this event is to gather
scientists working in the high energy domain to review the science
with focus on the most promising results as a tool for future
direction in this field. Transient phenomena, from the most
energetic to the very faint and the new obscured source populations
will be reviewed. There will be invited talks as well as contributed
talks aimed to summarize the current situation and the still-open
questions to focus future investigation on. Event sponsored by: ESA,
INAF, IASF-Roma/INAF, NASA |
