The symposium has shown the dynamism of this rapidly evolving discipline. I shall concentrate here on some highlights and some complementary informations. I conclude on open questions with some perspectives on solar & stellar activity and…
This article summarizes - from a personal perspective - some of the main themes that have emerged at this conference and in this field generally in the past few years.
We give a brief overview of where we stand with respect to some old and new questions bearing on how massive stars evolve and end their lifetime. We focus on the following key points that are further discussed by other contributions during…
During the five days of this conference a very dense scientific program has enlighted our research fields, with the presentation of large number of interesting lectures. I will try to summarize the theoretical aspects of some of these new…
In the last talk of the conference I summarized the main progress and contributions to high energy astrophysics made by studies of microquasars in our Galaxy. To stimulate the general discussion I have underlined some of the questions that…
A few simple if not obvious statements at the end of the conference: This was an useful conference. It has shown us the rapidly widening scope of the binary star research which now extends in its applications from the realm of planets to…
Massive stars like company. Here, we provide a brief overview of progresses made over the last 5 years by a number of medium and large surveys. These results provide new insights on the observed and intrinsic multiplicity properties of main…
A summary is presented of the more theoretical aspects of the presentations made at Hyperon~99. In addition, some material is covered which was not presented at the symposium but which I feel is pertinent to the main theme of hyperons…
The plenary presentations of the conference are summarised, highlighting some aspects that were of particular interest and attempting to link a few of the topics covered. Particular emphasis is placed on the problem of deep-inelastic…
This summary discusses new results on the stellar and gaseous luminous halo, and on the dark halo. It concludes with a look towards the future, with emphasis on the role of space astrometry missions.
A summary is presented of a symposium held to review recent progress in X-ray astronomy and to discuss prospects for the next generation of X-ray missions. The summary is organized around ten general, astrophysical questions that may…
A summary of the highlights of the conference, "Toward a New Millennium in Galaxy Morphology" is presented. In this review, I cover the major topics addressed at the conference, including both the observational and theoretical frameworks…
This conference demonstrated the tremendous progress that has been made in the last decade in our observational and theoretical understanding of compact, young, massive star clusters. One of the Hubble Space Telescope's main achievements…
The talks presented at the conference are summarized from an angle of a particle theorist. After presenting a personal impression on the conference, particular emphasis is placed on the spin structure of nucleons and symmetry breaking test.
We provide a brief overview of some key issues that came out of the IAU 256 symposium on the Magellanic System (http://www.astro.keele.ac.uk/iaus256)
This is a Concluding Talk, not a Summary of the Conference. I will discuss some of the highlights that particularly impressed me (a subjective choice) and make some comments on the status and the prospects of neutrino mass and mixing.
In these proceedings, I highlight some selected results from the STAR experiment that were presented in the Quark Matter 2012 conference.
This conclusion to the meeting attempts to summarise what we have learnt during the conference (mainly from the review talks) about new observations from Hinode and about theories stimulated by them. Suggestions for future study are also…
We present an overview of the main characteristics of several spectroscopic surveys designed to advance our understanding of the physical properties and evolution of massive stars. We also summarize key results obtained from the analysis of…
This invited memoir looks back on my scientific career that straddles the solar and stellar branches of astrophysics, with sprinklings of historical context and personal opinion. Except for a description of my life up to my Ph.D. phase, the…
