High Resolution X-ray Spectroscopy: Instrumentation, Data Analysis, and Science

Editors: C. Bambi and J. Jiang

Springer

"... This book has been crafted with a dual purpose in mind. Firstly, to serve as a comprehensive guide for beginners looking to learn the skills required for high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy. Secondly, to provide a summary of some of the most significant discoveries made using high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy across a range of topics, from Galactic objects to galaxies. However, the true value of this book lies in its emphasis on the importance of future high-resolution X-ray spectral data" ... "This book serves as a reminder of the critical role that high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy will play in reshaping our understanding of the Universe and the physical processes that govern it."
