Modern astronomy has been characterized by an enormous growth in
data acquisition - from new technologies in telescopes, detectors,
and computation. One can now compile catalogs of tens or hundreds
of millions of stars or galaxies and databases from satellite-based
observations are reaching terabit proportions. This wealth of data
gives rise to statistical challenges not previously encountered in
astronomy. This book is the result of a workshop held at
Pennsylvania State University in August 1991 that brought together
leading astronomers and statisticians to consider statistical
challenges encountered in modern astronomical research. The
chapters have all been thoroughly revised in the light of the
discussions at the conference, and some of the lively discussion is
recorded here as well.
