The Large Observatory For X-ray Timing: LOFT

Marco Feroci, +204 more
TL;DR: The Large Observatory For X-ray Timing (LOFT) was selected by the European Space Agency (ESA) Cosmic Vision Theme "Matter under extreme conditions", namely: does matter orbiting close to the event horizon follow the predictions of general relativity? What is the equation of state of matter in neutron stars? LOFT, selected by ESA as one of the four Cosmic Vision M3 candidate missions to undergo an assessment phase, will revolutionise the study of collapsed objects in our galaxy and of the brightest supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei.
