I summarize the highlights of the conference. First I provide a brief history of the beach symposia series our massive star community has been organizing. Then I use most of my allocated space discussing what I believe are the main answered…
The author reports his recollections of what transpired. These may or may not prove consistent with the contributions to be published in the proceedings. Corrections are welcome.
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.
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…
This symposium has revealed considerable new progress on nuclei of galaxies over the last three years. In this talk, I will try to point out the advances since the last meeting on exactly the same subject held three years ago at Ringberg…

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…
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.
This Meeting featured the recent advancements in our understanding of galaxy clusters and the distant Universe, achieved by the past and new generation of X-ray satellites. I summarize here the main themes that have been discussed: (a)…
I present a brief theory overview of the CHARM-2015 conference.
This talk tries to summarise where we are now, in the "nature and nurture" questions in galaxy formation and evolution, and briefly describe unsolved problems, and perspectives of progress.
Three are the main questions that were posed to the audience during this discussion session: a) Can galaxy abundances be believed?, b) What progress can we expect soon and from where? and c) Can we agree, as a community, on topics in which…
