Focusing on the chemical processes relevant to astrophysics, this collection features twelve expert contributions from renowned scientists across Europe and the US. Topics include the chemistry of comets, meteorites, stars, interstellar medium, and galaxies. The book offers a detailed review of nucleosynthesis and includes two observational reports, providing a comprehensive and current overview of cosmic chemistry as discussed during the 1988 Astronomische Gesellschaft meeting in Cologne.

Focusing on advancements in astrophysics, this volume features invited reviews and notable lectures from leading scientists presented during the Astronomische Gesellschaft meetings in 1989. The spring meeting in Friedrichshafen and the fall meeting in Graz highlighted the theme of "Astrophysics with Modern Technology," showcasing space-based and ground-based systems. Additionally, it includes Karl Schwarzschild lectures by esteemed scientists recognized with the Karl Schwarzschild medal, reflecting significant achievements in the field.

Focusing on the theme of "Accretion and Winds," this volume compiles key contributions from the Astronomische Gesellschaft's 1990 spring meeting in Berlin, alongside additional papers from the fall meeting in Graz. It includes invited reviews and highlight contributions from prominent scientists discussing advancements in accretion disk theory, mass transfer in binaries, and radiation hydrodynamics. The collection features detailed analyses and figures, showcasing significant scientific achievements in modern astronomy and providing insights into recent research trends.

Focusing on time-dependent phenomena in astronomical objects, this volume presents findings from the 1991 International Scientific Spring Meeting. It explores various causes of variability, including pulsation and accretion, particularly in galactic stars like cataclysmic variables and luminous blue variables. The book also discusses magnetic field variations in solar-like stars, gas motions in the Milky Way, and the behavior of extragalactic radio sources and active galactic nuclei. It contributes to the Reviews in Modern Astronomy series, highlighting significant scientific advancements.
