Scientific program

We have saved most of time for discussions and work on subjects connected with current research projects of the group members:
  • Estimating black-hole spins from spectral continuum and Fe florescence
  • Time and frequency evolution of Sgr A* flares/jets
  • Star dynamics in galaxy cores
  • Accretion disk flow at the inner edge
  • Polarization of Sgr A* radiation and X-ray polarization in general

Location

Gargellen (1500 a.s.l.), Vorarlberg region, Austria
