【 摘 要 】

I summarize X-ray diagnostic studies of cosmic star formation history in terms of evolutionary schemes for X-ray binary evolution in normal galaxies with evolving star formation. Deep X-ray imaging studies by Chandra and XMM-Newton are now beginning to constrain both the X-ray luminosity evolution of galaxies and the log 𝑁 – log 𝑆 diagnostics of the X-ray background. I discuss these in the above context, summarizing current understanding and future prospects.
