IAU Transactions XXVIB contains the Proceedings of the IAU XXVII General Assembly held in Prague, 14-25 August 2006, hosting a total of 2412 participants from 73 countries. The Assembly featured a rich scientific program, comprising 6 Symposia, 17 Joint Discussions and 7 Special Sessions. During the program about 650 papers were presented and more than 1550 posters displayed. The Proceedings of the 6 Symposia have been published in the Proceedings of the IAU Symposia Series, and the proceedings of the Joint Discussions and Special Sessions feature in IAU Highlights of Astronomy, 14. Together with those 7 volumes, these Transactions cover the entire General Assembly. In addition to the scientific program, the XXVI General Assembly hosted the regular Business Meetings of the EC, the 12 Divisions, 40 Commissions and 75 Working Groups. This volume records the organizational and administrative business of the XXVI General Assembly and the status of the IAU membership.
Annotation Contains 137 papers presented at the June 1999 meeting on Be stars and possible connections to other types of hot stars. The authors report on the results from the use of new missions and technologies, the production of periodic and aperiodic variability in the atmospheres of Be stars, models of circumstellar discs, and the relationship of binary systems to the Be phenomenon. Topics include the Be phenomenon in A-type supergiants, Hipparcos positions of B/Be stars on the HR diagram, and the role of polarimetry as a diagnostic of circumstellar envelopes. Annotation c.

These Proceedings present the most recent results from the highly successful international solar space missions (SOHO, CORONAS-F, TRACE, RHESSI, YOHKOH) and ground observatories around the Earth, reported at the IAU Symposium 223 held in St. Petersburg, Russia, June 14-19, 2004. These include discussions of the current theories of solar dynamics and activity, new constraints provided by the multi-wavelength observations of the Sun from the interior to the heliosphere, as well as discussions of future coordinated plans and efforts of multi-wavelength investigations of the Sun. The Proceedings contain the material of seven plenary sessions and three round-table discussions
This conference explored the formation, life, and death of the earliest stars (also known as Population III stars) and their impact on subsequent structure formation and chemical evolution of the universe. First Stars III covered a wide range of observational topics, including star formation, stellar evolution, supernovae, and the search for primordial and metal-poor stars in the galactic halo.
