Description
The contributions to this conference discuss both scientific and technical aspects of the MIRAX (Monitor e Imageador de RAios-X) x-ray astronomy project, an international satellite mission to be launched in 2011. The main topic was the importance of observing x-ray transient sources and explosive phenomena in the central Galactic plane with a wide-field imaging instrument over long and continuous periods of time.
