Scientific paper

High resolution X-ray spectroscopy of cosmic plasmas has undergone a revolution, since the launch of the Chandra and XMM-Newton observatories two years ago. Both carry diffraction grating spectrometers, which are now providing a stream of very high quality, completely novel data, on every kind of astrophysical object. I will discuss some of the more spectacular spectroscopic surprises, and show how both familiar and new diagnostics provide detailed information of a new order on the radiation sources.
