* 2011 X-Ray Astronomy School, 1-5 August
The 2011 X-ray Astronomy School, organized jointly by HEASARC at NASA
Goddard Space Flight Center and the Chandra X-ray Center, is designed to
introduce graduate students and recent postdocs to the intricacies of
X-ray astronomy.
The lectures emphasize the foundations of X-ray astronomy rather than
any particular software tools. However, the school does include a
hands-on component in which participants will analyze an X-ray dataset
of their choice using the standard software.
The online registration is now available:
