Scientific paper

This year there have been several workshops discussing statistical issues in X-ray and gamma-ray astronomy. These include the semester long workshop hosted by Statistical and Applied Mathematics Sciences Institute in North Carolina, the Statistical Challenges in Modern Astronomy IV Conference at Penn State, and the Statistical Inference Problems in High Energy Physics and Astronomy Workshop hosted by the Banff International Research Station. These workshops constitute a major effort in developing statistical methods for high energy astrophysics and this special session will discuss and summarize results from these workshops. We expect topics to include standardized methods for computing detection limits, upper limits, and confidence intervals for weak sources; new model-based statistical methods for image analysis and errors in reconstructed images; and methods for propagating calibration errors in X-ray spectral analysis.
