Scientific Program

NewAthena is expected to revolutionise our understanding of the physics of compact objects. In this context, the conference will explore the new scientific frontiers opened  by the mission, with a particular focus on:

  • (Extreme) magnetism in compact objects
  • Accretion onto stellar-mass compact objects

  • Observational constraints on the ultra-dense matter Equation of State

  • Discovery of stellar mass compact objects in our Galaxy and beyond

  • Population studies of compact objects
