SIXTE Online Hands-on Workshop NewAthena Simulations
|
|
The SIXTE team is happy to announce its next hands-on workshop. This workshop will be dedicated to preparing for the NewAthena special issue and will therefore focus on the NewAthena mission - the WFI and X-IFU detectors.
The intended audience is graduate students and scientists with a
background in X-ray astronomy who are interested in performing
simulations for NewAthena. An involvement in the special issue is not necessary.
Full information and registration here.
