Abstract
The X-ray Evolving Universe Spectroscopy mission (XEUS) is a potential follow-on to ESA's Cornerstone XMM-Newton. XEUS is designed to become a permanent space-based X-ray observatory covering the waveband from 0.5 to 200 angstroms with a sensitivity comparable to the most advanced planned future observations at longer wavelengths, such as NGST, ALMA and FIRST.
