Beskrivning

Traditional galaxy morphology has been mask-oriented, focusing on masks of dust and gas which may constitute only 5 per cent of the dynamical mass of a galaxy. Astronomers addressed morphologically related issues at an International Conference, the proceedings of which are contained in this volume. This volume contains over 80 refereed contributions (including 18 in-depth keynote review articles), 40 pages of questions and answers, and a panel discussion transcribed from tape.
