Working session on Standard Candles
Chair: F. Haberl · Definition of standard candles Sources with constant X-ray flux: white dwarfs isolated neutron stars supernova remnants cluster of galaxies · Scientific drivers for accurate absolute fluxes neutron star radii cosmology (e.g. total mass of galaxy clusters, Sunyaev Zeldovic effect) · Calibration purposes absolute flux calibration energy scale, energy resolution, (CCD) re-distribution regular monitoring of a suitable subsample of standard candles is recommended

"Laboratory" absolute standards
dedicated calibration mission new developments of X-ray sources useful for calibration

Standard candles and models
agreement on model parameters tabulate model to "save" it include statistical errors and differences between instruments "band of models"
