This is the written account of the first of two panel discussions, on Star formation in galaxies: how do we continue? The chair of the panel was Phil James, and...

This is the written account of the second of two panel discussions, on Reconciling observations and modeling of star formation at high redshifts. The chair of...

We analyse the problem of parameter estimation for compact binary systems that could be detected by ground-based gravitational wave detectors. So far, this...

I review our knowledge about effective temperatures and masses of massive OB stars paying special attention to results recently obtained using new atmospheric...

We present in this contribution a review of recent results of parameters of massive OB stars in the Milky Way, the Magellanic Clouds and nearby spirals. The...

Procedures were developed for extracting low resolution spectra while correcting for halation effects and scattered light within the instrument. To correct for...

We report the first reliable measurement of the nebular [OI] 5577AA emission line in the Orion nebula. The use of diagnostic diagrams using the nebular [OI] and...

The ESA PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) mission aims at the detection and characterisation (radii, mass, density, age) of terrestrial...
