The conference is hosted by RIKEN and supported by JAXA. Please direct your browser to the conference web site for additional details and access to the registration form. http://maxi.riken.jp/astrows/ MAXI, an X-ray all-sky monitor mission on the Japanese Experiment Module of the International Space Station, scheduled to be launched in March 2009, is currently in the final test phase. We will hold this workshop to inform the MAXI capability widely to the scientists in the world, to discuss the MAXI's science and to maximize its scientific output. We will invite several speakers and call for contributed short talks and posters. Due to the unprecedented sensitivity of a few milliCrab in a day covering most of the sky, MAXI can monitor the variability of a large number of X-ray sources at much lower flux levels than is possible with the current all-sky or wide-field missions. Its science output will be greatly enhanced by the joint multiwavelength observations with contemporary missions such as INTEGRAL, Swift, GLAST, and ground-based optical/NIR/radio observatories, as well as deep follow-up observations in X-rays by Suzaku, XMM or Chandra. Collaboration with future X-ray all-sky survey programs, such as eRosita and Lobster will be also useful. The featured themes for this program are: * MAXI Mission and its capability * MAXI Observations of AGNs (flares and long-term monitoring, multi-wavelength) * MAXI Observations of the galactic variable sources (accreting binaries containing compact objects, active stars) * MAXI Observations of the gamma-ray bursts, X-ray flashes and supernovae * MAXI Observations of large-scale diffuse emissions (Galactic center, ridge, oxygen and iron lines) * Related theories Important dates to keep in mind are: 2008 March 31 Registration deadline for talks and posters (Abstract needed) June 10-12 MAXI workshop August 31 Deadline for submission of papers for Proceedings We look forward to seeing you in RIKEN ! Please forward this announcement to any of your colleagues who might be interested in attending MAXI workshop. Sincerely, Tatehiro Mihara (MAXI astrophysics workshop LOC) ＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
