9815655DiStefanoThis award supports the PI, Rosanne DiStefano, a postdoctoral, and a graduate student from the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in a collaboration with Jochen Greiner of the Institute for Astrophysics in Potsdam, Germany. The research focus is on discovering new sources of super-soft x-rays (x-rays close to the ultra-violet part of the spectrum) and testing a new close-binary supersoft source model. The PI is an expert in such models, and the German group is known for its facilities, and the German PI is credited with playing a leading role in the discovery of super-soft x-ray systems . A large amount of new and planned data will provide strong tests for the new model which will then be of use to the entire astrophysics community.

9815655DiStefano该奖项支持PI，Rosanne DiStefano，博士后，以及Smithsonian天体物理天文台的一名研究生，与德国波茨坦天体物理研究所的Jochen Greiner合作。研究的重点是发现新的超软X射线源(接近光谱的紫外线部分的X射线)，并测试一种新的近双星超软源模型。PI是这类模型的专家，这家德国集团以其设施而闻名，德国PI被认为在发现超软X射线系统方面发挥了主导作用。大量新的和计划中的数据将为新模型提供强有力的测试，然后将对整个天体物理界有用。
