Gaia: Organisation and challenges for the data processing

F. Mignard, C. Bailer-Jones, U. Bastian +9

Gaia is an ambitious space astrometry mission of ESA with a main objective to map the sky in astrometry and photometry down to a magnitude 20 by the end of the next decade. While t…

Large-scale variations of the cosmic X-ray background and the X-ray emissivity of the local Universe

M. Revnivtsev, S. Molkov, S. Sazonov

We study the cosmic X-ray background (CXB) intensity variations on large angular scales using slew data of the RXTE observatory. We detect intensity variations up to ~2% on angular…

Constraints on light bending and reflection from the hard X-ray background

P. Gandhi, A. C. Fabian, T. Suebsuwong +3

Light bending due to strong gravity has recently been invoked to explain variability and flux correlations between different bands in some accreting black holes. A characteristic f…
