- Atelier XMM ? Paris du 14 au 16 avril 2008
Dans le cadre des projets de la 2eme decenie d'XMM, un atelier international se tiendra a Paris du 14 au 16 avril 2008. Le but de cette rencontre est d'examiner les arguments scientifiques et la faisabilite d'un survey de ~ 100 deg2 avec XMM. Une large place sera aussi faite a l'etude de surveys associes en optique, SZ, IR, UV et radio.
- les propositions de contributions sont attendues pour le 15 janvier
