Astronomical Society of India Conference Series


In order to make recent results presented in conferences available to a wide community, the Astronomical Society of India has started a Conference Series. Conferences held either within or outside the country can be published as part of the ASI Conference Series. The Conference Series volumes will be available via the web page of BASI as well as ADS. All papers in the Conference Series will be refereed, and all aspects of its publication will be overseen by the Editorial Board of BASI. We welcome proposals from organisers of astronomical meetings or editors of the proceedings. Enquiries and proposals may be sent to secretary@astron-soc.in.

Orders for the ASI Conference Series are to be placed with an email to (secretary@astron-soc.in)

Editors: D.K. Ojha

This international conference on interstellar matter and star formation was organised as part of the Homi Bhabha Birth Centenary Celebrations from 5th to 7th October 2009, at the TIFR National Balloon Facility, Hyderabad, India. It is one of the important and fundamental areas of research in astrophysics, which has seen significant changes in the last several years due to new developments in detector technology, especially at infrared and sub-mm wavelengths. This volume, consisting of about 250 pages, contains review articles in a wide range of themes by leading workers in the field, as well as contributed and poster papers presented in the conference. The volume would be invaluable for graduate students and research workers interested in interstellar matter and star formation.

Robotic workshop 2011

Editors: S. Guziy, S.B. Pandey and A.J. Castro-Tirado

This workshop is being jointly supported by the Spanish Research Agency (CSIC) and by the University of Malaga (UMA) in Spain, and is taking place in Torremolinos, Spain from the 5th to 10th June 2011. The main focus of the workshop is on new and existing astronomical facilities whose goal is to observe a wide variety of astrophysical targets with no (or very little) human intervention. This workshop, the second in a series, hopes to become an international forum for researchers to summarise the most recent developments and ideas in the field, with a special emphasis given to the technical and observational results and public outreach (including Citizen Science) and educational applications achieved within the last five years as well as plan future strategies.

Recent advances in observational and theoretical studies of star formation

Editors: Annapurni Subramaniam, Sumedh Anathpindika, Padmakar Parihar and Mousumi Das

This meeting which discusses recent advances in observational and theoretical studies of star formation, was held from 28th June to 1st July 2011 at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA), Bengaluru, and was organized as part of the silver jubilee celebrations of the Vainu Bappu Telescope at VBO, Kavalur, built indigenously by IIA in 1986.

Stellar spectral libraries

Editors: Philippe Prugniel and Harinder P. Singh

Libraries of stellar spectra play an important role in different fields of astrophysics. These libraries may consist of either observed or theoretical spectra, and they vary in their spectral coverage/domain and resolution. This volume contains the proceedings of an international workshop held at the University of Delhi from the 5th to the 9th of December 2011, where recent efforts in this domain and their applications to different astrophysical situations were presented by many leading workers in the field.
