Solar and Stellar Physics Proceedings of the 5th European Solar Meeting Held in Titisee/Schwarzwald, Germany, April 27-30, 1987

These proceedings bring together ideas from solar and stellar physics. The sun is near enough for rather detailed observations and one chapter is devoted to the more recent experimental data from observations from space. On the other hand the multitude of stars provides a wide range of physical para...
