In the 18 years since the discovery of the first extrasolar X-ray source, Sco X-l, the field has experienced an extremely rapid instrumentation development culminating with the launch on November 13, 1978 of the Einstein Observatory (HEAO-2) which first introduced the use of high resolution imaging telescopes to the study of galactic and extragalactic X-ray sources. The Einstein Observatory instruments can detect sources as faint as 10-7 Sco X-lor about 17 magnitudes fainter. The technological developments in the field have been paralleled by a host of new discoveries: in the early 1960‘s the detection of 9 "X-ray stars", objects 10 times more luminous in X-rays than the Sun and among the brightest stellar objects at all wavelengths; in the late 1960‘s and early 1970‘s the discovery of the natureof such systems which were identified as collapsed stars (neutron stars and black holes) in mass exchange binary systems, and the detection of the first few extragalactic sources. | | 出版日期 | Conference proceedings 1981 | | 关键词 | Corona; astronomy; astrophysics; cosmology; galaxy; quasar | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-009-8459-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-009-8461-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-009-8459-2Series ISSN 0067-0057 Series E-ISSN 2214-7985 | | issn_series | 0067-0057 | | copyright | D.
