Workshop Summary: The Dynamics, Structure and History of Galaxies
Abstract
In July/August last year, a group of 50 galactic astronomers convened at Dunk Island, Australia to celebrate Prof. Ken Freeman's 60th birthday. The overarching theme of the meeting reflected Ken's wish to understand ``the chain of events that occurred during the formation of the Galaxy", to quote from his Annual Reviews article in 1987. The workshop was divided into four parts: galaxy structure and dynamics, haloes and environments, HI and dark matter, galaxy formation and evolution.
