Million Degree Plasmas in Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Astrophysics


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Million degree plasmas are ubiquitous in the Universe, and examples include the atmospheres of white dwarfs; accretion phenomena in young stars, cataclysmic variables and active galactic nuclei; the coronae of stars; and the interstellar medium of our own galaxy and of others. The bulk of radiation from million degree plasmas is emitted at extreme ultraviolet (EUV) wavelengths, which includes critical spectral features containing diagnostic information often not available at other wavelengths. With underpinning by a mature instrument technology, there is great opportunity here for exciting discoveries.
