From the beginning of Space Astronomy, the Extreme Ultraviolet band
of the spectrum (roughly defined as the decade in energy from
90-900 A) was deemed to be the unobservable ultraviolet'.
Pioneering results from an EUV telescope on the Apollo-Soyuz
Mission in 1975 forcibly demonstrated that this view was incorrect;
but it required the all-sky surveys of the English Wide-Field
Camera and the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer to demonstrate the
broad potential of this field. Over 700 EUV sources have now been
detected. Over 150 researchers from 16 countries gathered to share
results in this new field at the International Astronomical Union
Colloquium No. 152. Papers were presented on a wide variety of
topics including cool star coronae, white dwarf atmospheres and
evolution, neutron stars, the Io torus, cataclysmic variable stars,
active galactic nuclei, the interstellar medium, winds and
atmospheres of early type stars, and EUV plasma diagnostics.
Selected manuscripts from this meeting are provided in these
Conference Proceedings."
