The long-established series of annual one-day X-ray astronomy meetings in
the UK, usually held at Leicester University, will this year be hosted by the
Mullard Space Science Laboratory
(MSSL),
Department of Space and Climate Physics of University College London,
on Tuesday 11th July 2006. As usual, the meeting will consist of
contributed talks by the X-ray astronomy community from around the UK,
on the subject of 'New Results in X-Ray Astronomy'.
We are expecting that the programme will be an exciting combination of talks
on the world-class science being undertaken in the UK with the Chandra,
XMM-Newton, and especially Swift satellites, not
forgetting
the RXTE and INTEGRAL observatories.
All interested persons are invited to attend. In particular this meeting
will provide an opportunity for newer members of the UK high energy
astronomical community to present results, and to meet with members of
other groups working in this area. There will be ample space for posters.
The meeting is expected to start at 10:30 am (coffee
available from 10:00 am) and end at 5:30 pm (immediately followed by
a reception). Those interested in attending should forward their
contact details to Mat Page (mjp@mssl.ucl.ac.uk), with copy to
Graziella Branduardi-Raymont
(gbr@mssl.ucl.ac.uk) by 20th June 2006 at the latest. Please
let us also know if you intend to offer a talk or a poster, and send us an
abstract. There will not be
a registration fee, nor formal proceedings from the
meeting, but the presentations will be posted on this Website.
