"Two Thousand X-ray Stars in the Central 20 pc of the Galaxy" |
Dr. Mike Muno MIT |
Note: Special day and time |
I will be presenting the stellar X-ray sources detected
during 600 ks of Chandra observations of the field around
Sgr A*. I will discuss the nature of these point sources,
the amount of flux they contribute to the diffuse Galactic
X-ray emission, and how they might be used to understand
the star formation history at the Galactic center.
Monday, December 16th at 2:00 p.m.
Seminar is scheduled to be held in F235 of
the Tech Building, due to current renovations at Dearborn Observatory.
Refreshments will be served at 1:30
