Descripción
Topics discussed include the origin and early development of galaxies;
gas and global star formation; galactic nuclei; population, age, and
dynamics of the Galaxy; supernovae and their effects; chemical
evolution; population synthesis; and galaxy interactions. Papers are
presented on dwarf galaxies, the role of magnetic fields in the
evolution of galaxies, molecular gas in spiral galaxies, evidence for
coherent star-forming processes in the discs of spirals, and active
galactic nuclei without black holes. Attention is also given to the
populations and evolution of the Galaxy, the white dwarf luminosity
function and the age of the Galaxy, supernovae and their effects,
chemical evolution in galaxies, and the evolution of He-4 in galaxies.
Other papers are on the stellar population synthesis, stellar population
synthesis in galaxy nuclei, population synthesis an X-ray properties of
passively evolving galaxies, and the evolutionary effects of interaction
between galaxies.
