There are reasons to believe the 21st century will be the best ever
for astrophysics: the James Webb Space Telescope will extend nearly
twenty times the present observational limit of visible light;
neutrino massiveness opens a new window for exploration on dark
energy and dark matter physics and is expected to provide insights
into the fate of the Universe; the Higgs boson may allow for an
understanding of the weakness of gravity; gravitational waves
produced at the birth of the Universe and by compact stellar
objects (supermassive black holes, black hole/neutron star mergers,
gamma-ray bursts, white dwarf inspirals) have unveiled a new area
of astronomy. Against this background, compact stars, the theme of
this volume, present unique astrophysical laboratories for probing
the fabric of space-time and the building blocks of matter and
their interactions at physical regimes not attainable in
terrestrial laboratories.
