High-Resolution X-ray Spectroscopy [E-Book] : Instrumentation, Data Analysis, and Science / edited by Cosimo Bambi, Jiachen Jiang.
NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and ESA's XMM-Newton Observatory have been the pioneering satellites for studying the Universe with X-rays and the cornerstone of X-ray spectroscopy since their launches more than 20 years ago. The onboard gratings provide us a unique opportunity to disting...
