Annotation Observational data, laboratory measurements, and modeling efforts are reported in these papers from a conference on the massive star Eta Carinae and other stars with peculiar spectroscopic signatures. Organized in sections on the spectroscopy of Eta Carinae from X-rays to radio, questions from spectroscopy of other peculiar emission line stars, fluorescence and radiative processes, and spectra of Eta Carinae and Weigelt blobs BD, the papers deal with aspects of the field such as Raman scattering and symbiotic stars, the origin of strings in the outer regions in Eta Carinae, selective emission lines in O-type spectra, and cool star chromospheres and the sun.

Annotation Papers from a July 2001 meeting report on the outcome of two decades of scientific collaboration between Flemish and South African researchers in the field of small-amplitude short-period variables and long-period pulsating stars. Some specific topics include global campaigns on Delta Scuti stars, photometric and spectroscopic reduction techniques, period changes in V 1162 Orionis, and autocorrelation analysis of Hipparcos photometry of short-period A and B stars. Other topics include oscillating blue stragglers in galactic globular clusters, and photometry of Delta Serpentis. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
