Integral2014 - (other integral conferences)
15-19 September 2014
Annapolis, MD, USA
published March 16, 2015
The goal of this workshop was to present and discuss the latest results obtained in the field of high-energy astrophysics using the International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory, INTEGRAL, and place these results in the context of other space-based missions, such as Swift, Fermi, AGILE, NuSTAR, Suzaku and MAXI, as well as ground-based VHE observatories. Correlative studies in lower energy bands, as well as neutrino- and gravitational wave observations are included as relevant for various source classes. The workshop addresses the following scientific topics:

- X-ray binaries (involving black holes, neutron stars, and white dwarfs)
- Isolated neutron stars (gamma-ray pulsars, magnetars)
- Nucleosynthesis (SNe, Novae, SNRs, ISM) and gamma-ray lines, including 511 keV)
- Galactic diffuse continuum emission (including Galactic Ridge)
- Massive black holes in AGNs (blazars, and the nucleus of the Milky Way)
- Sky surveys, source populations and unidentified gamma-ray sources
- Cosmic background radiation
- Gamma-ray bursts
- Progress in data processing and analysis
- Future instruments and missions
