IAU Symposium No. 80, The HR Diagram - The 100th Anniversary of
Henry Norris Russell was held on November 2-5, 1977 at the National
Academy of Sciences in Washington D. C. , in order to commemmorate
the birth of Henry Norris Russell on October 25, 1877 and to review
current problems in the use of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. The
IAU has sponsored two previous conferences concerned mainly with
the HR diagram; The Position of Variable Stars in the
Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram, a colloquium held at Bamberg in 1965
and The Hertzsprung Russell Diagram (IAU Symposium No. 10, J. L.
Greenstein, ed. ) held in Moscow in 1959. In 1974 a conference,
Multicolor Photometry and the Theoretical HR Diagram (Dudley Obs.
Report No. 9, A. G. D. Philip and D. S. Hayes, eds. ) was held in
Albany, N. Y. ; and in 1964 a conference, Basic Data Pertaining to
the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram, was held at the Flagstaff Station
of the U. S. Naval Observatory in honor of Ejnar Hertzsprung and to
dedicate the 61-inch astrometric reflector. (Vistas in Astronomy
Vol. ~, A. Beer and K. Aa. Strand, eds. , Pergamon Press, Oxford).
Volume 12 of Vistas in Astronomy, The Henry Norris Russell Memorial
Volume (1970), contains a review paper on Changing Interpretations
of the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram 1910-1940, A Historical Note by
B. W. Sitterly.
