Condensed Matter Astrophysics: A Prescription for Determining the Species-Specific Composition and Quantity of Interstellar Dust using X-rays
Julia C. Lee, Jingen Xiang, Bruce Ravel +2
We present a new technique for determining the *quantity and composition* of dust in astrophysical environments using <6keV X-rays. We argue that high resolution X-ray spectra as e…
The growth and evolution of super massive black holes
S. Murray, R. Gilli, P. Tozzi +19
We discuss the central role played by X-ray studies to reconstruct the past history of formation and evolution of supermassive Black Holes (BHs), and the role they played in shapin…
The Growth of Supermassive Black Holes Across Cosmic Time
K. Nandra, J. A. Aird, D. M. Alexander +54
One of the main themes in extragalactic astronomy for the next decade will be the evolution of galaxies over cosmic time. Many future observatories, including JWST, ALMA, GMT, TMT…
Galaxy clusters and the cosmic cycle of baryons across cosmic times
R. Giacconi, S. Borgani, P. Rosati +18
We discuss the central role played by the X-ray study of hot baryons within galaxy clusters to reconstruct the assembly of cosmic structures and to trace the past history of star f…
