Probing X-ray Emitting Plasma with High Resolution Chandra and XMM-Newton Spectra

Abstract

Highlights of interesting astrophysical discoveries are reviewed in the context of high resolution X-ray spectroscopy made possible with Chandra and XMM-Newton, and its relevance to atomic physics calculations and measurements is discussed. These spectra have shown that the overlap between astrophysics and atomic physics is stronger than ever, as discoveries of new X-ray lines and edge structure is matching the need for increasingly detailed theoretical calculations and experimental measurements of atomic data.
