Scientific programme
We 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
