Reviews in Modern Astronomy 9
Positions, Motions, and Cosmic Evolution
Edited by Reinhard E. Schielicke on behalf of the
Astronomische Gesellschaft, 1996.
X+339 pages / 107 figures / Hard cover /
ISBN 3-9805176-9-1
The yearbook series Reviews in Modern Astronomy
of the Astronomische Gesellschaft (AG) was established in 1988 in
order to bring the scientific events of the meetings of the society
to the attention of the worldwide astronomical community.
Reviews in Modern Astronomy is devoted
exclusively to the invited Reviews, the Karl Schwarzschild Lectures,
the Ludwig Biermann Award Lectures, and the highlight contributions
from leading scientists reporting on recent progress and scientific
achievements at their respective research institutes.
Volume 9 continues the yearbook series with 16 contributions which
were presented during the International Scientific Conference
of the AG on "Positions, Motions, and Cosmic Evolution"
at Bonn from September 18 to 23, 1995.
