Current High-energy Emission Around Black Holes: Proceedings of the 2nd Kias Astrophysics Workshop : Korea Institute for Advanced Study, September 3-8, 2001

Black holes exist in galactic nuclei and in some X-ray binaries found in our own galaxy and the large Magellanic Cloud.

This volume focuses on astrophysical high-energy emission processes around black holes, and the development of theoretical frameworks for interesting observational results.Contents: Black Hole ObservationsAccretion Disk/Formation of JetsEnergy Extraction from Rotating Black HolesSupernova and Gamma Ray BurstsBlack Hole AstrophysicsReadership: Graduate students, post-docs and academics in astrophysics, astronomy, cosmology and high energy physics.
