Scientific programme

We will save most of our time for discussions and work on subjects connected with current research projects of the Prague Relativistic Astrophysics Group:

• X-ray polarization of AGNs and black-hole binaries
• X-ray coronae in AGNs
• Structure of accretion disks and radiative transfer in disks
• Relativistic jets
• Black holes in n-dimensional spacetimes
• Numerical (magneto-)hydrodynamics in relativity

Location

Taxenbach in Raurisertal, Austria (950 m a.s.l.)
(A former mountain farm, located in a beautiful solitary position with a view of the surrounding mountains, meadows and Taxenbach town.)
