eROSITA - Science and Data Analysis School

This school is aimed at PhD Students and early career Postdocs who are already or intending to analyze eROSITA data.

MPE is hosting this school. The experts at MPE, who have developed, built, and run eROSITA, will give an in-depth introduction to how the X-ray telescope works, is calibrated, and how the data should be analyzed using the pipelines developed at MPE. For this purpose, experts in different scientific fields will, in the mornings, introduce their topic of study in detail. These introductions will be followed up with hands-on afternoon data analysis sessions.
