X-ray transients and their counterparts in optical band
Nakisa Nooraee(Dublin Institute for Advanced studies, Ireland)

Abstract:

First of all, I will discuss how to find a new x-ray transient source in chandra observation, then will present the details of tracing the detected transient in optical band which in my research is done with ACS camera of HST(hubble space telescope). Final part of my talk is about astrometry in chandra and HST data , aimed to find black hole in X-ray transients.
