Conference “Modern Stellar Astronomy 2017”
Here we give a brief overview on the eighth annual conference on Modern Stellar Astronomy held in the Ural FederalUniversity (Ekaterinbourg, Russia) in June 2017, to commemorate the 100th birthday of Prof. K. Barkhatova (1917-1990).

Solving Stellar Astronomy Problems in the Orbital Stellar Stereoscopic Observatory Project
We propose to establish an Orbital Stellar Stereoscopic Observatory (OStSO) consisting of two identically equipped spacecrafts (SCs) in the vicinity of two Lagrangian libration points, L4 and L5, of the “Sun – Earth+Moon barycenter” system.

Extragalaxtic Stellar Astronomy [PDF]
Despite their paucity, massive hot stars are real cosmic engines of fundamental importance in shaping our Universe, from its very early stages up to its current appearance. Understanding the physics of massive stars is then a key issue for many relevant astrophysical phenomena.

Symmetries in Stellar, Galactic and Extragalactic Astronomy [PDF]
Examples are presented for appearance of geometric symmetry in the shape of various astronomical objects and phenomena. Usage of these symmetries in astrophysical and extragalactic research is also discussed.

An Outline of Stellar Astronomy [PDF]
THIS little book is designed, as the author unassumingly states, for readers who have "slightly more knowledge than that necessary for perusal of 'popular' astronomical literature". It is, in fact, a useful summary, remarkably complete for its size, of the present state of knowledge, and there will be many genuine astronomers, both amateur and ...

The Stagnation of Contemporary Stellar Astronomy [PDF]
The stellar astronomy has always been considered the fundamental source of knowledge about the basic building blocks of the universe - the stars. It has proved correctness of many physical theories - like e.g. the idea of nuclear fusion in stellar cores, the exchange of mass in interacting binaries or models of stellar evolution towards white dwarfs or

Stellar Coronal Astronomy [PDF]
Coronal astronomy is by now a fairly mature discipline, with a quarter century having gone by since the detection of the first stellar X-ray coronal source (Capella), and having benefitted from a series of major orbiting observing facilities. Serveral observational characteristics of coronal X-ray and EUV emission have been solidly established through ...

Stellar Radio Astronomy: Probing Stellar Atmospheres from Protostars to Giants [PDF]
▪ Abstract Radio astronomy has provided evidence for the presence of ionized atmospheres around almost all classes of nondegenerate stars. Magnetically confined coronae dominate in the cool half of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. Their radio emission is predominantly of nonthermal origin and has been identified as gyrosynchrotron radiation from ...
