Abstract

Notwithstanding the decline in the level of funding for astronomy in many countries, the number of papers published continues to grow triennium by triennium. The volume of current research is such that it is no longer practicable for Commission reports to provide a complete guide to everything published within the relevant field during a given triennium. Correspondingly, at the XXIInd General Assembly in the Hague it was resolved that future reports would be of a selective nature rather than general surveys of the literature.
