Geoff Bicknell, Alexander Wagner We are engaged in the following computationally intensive projects related to Black Hole and other energetic phenomena. Accretion disks. ... We envisage that we will determine the way in which gravitational energy is channeled into the high temperature coronae of black hole accretion disks and into relativistic jets and winds. ... Feedback from black holes and starbursts. ... COALA : Universe Galaxy AGN Star Planet ...

Germany is responsible for the development of the key mission instrument - the X-ray grazing-incident mirror telescope eROSITA. ... The first 4 years will be devoted to an all-sky survey, and the rest of the mission lifetime will be spent on follow-on pointed observations of a selection of the most interesting galaxy clusters and AGNs. ... 2016 IKI RAN ...

These close-up images, taken by an electron microscope, reveal tiny one-cell organisms called halophiles and methanogens. In a two-year laboratory study, scientists subjected these organisms to increasingly lower temperatures to determine the coldest temperatures at which the microbes could survive and reproduce. The study shows the microbes could survive at below-freezing temperatures and are within the temperature range on present-day Mars. ... Maryland Astrobiology Consortium/NASA/STScI ...

The database contains references to the papers, data files and links to the Internet resources related to measurements and calculations of the optical constants in the wavelength interval from X-rays to radio domain. ... References to some useful books and reviews on the subject (e.g. the classical handbooks edited by E.D.Palik) and links to Internet collections of optical constants and personal WWW pages with related software were also placed in the database.
