Transactions XXVIA of the International Astronomical Union (IAU)
provides a comprehensive and authoritative review of what has been
achieved in astronomy during the years 2003 to 2005. The insightful
and up-to-date reviews are written by the Presidents and
Chairpersons of the IAU??'s different Divisions, Commissions and
Working Groups and each focuses on a different subject area. Topics
covered in this wide-ranging volume include: fundamental astronomy;
the Sun and heliosphere; planetary systems sciences; stars;
variable stars; interstellar matter; the Galactic system; galaxies
and the Universe; optical and infrared techniques; radio astronomy;
space and high energy astrophysics; and other IAU activities. The
reviews are written at a level suitable for colleagues in the same
field, but they will also be useful for students and researchers
wishing to gain an overview beyond their own research area.
