    This book presents a collection of focused review papers on the advances in topics in modern astronomy, astrophysics, cosmology and planetary science. The chapters are written by expert members of an EU-funded ERASMUS+ program of strategic partnership between several European institutes.


    The 13 reviews comprise the topics:
    ✓ Space debris, optical measurements
    ✓ Meteors, light from comets and asteroids
    ✓ Extrasolar enigmas: from disintegrating exoplanets to exo-asteroids
    ✓ Physical conditions and chemical abundances in photoionized nebulae from optical spectra
    ✓ Observational Constraints on the Common Envelope Phase
    ✓ A modern guide to quantitative spectroscopy of massive OB stars
    ✓ Explosion mechanisms of core-collapse supernovae and their observational signatures
    ✓ Low-mass and substellar eclipsing binaries in stellar clusters
    ✓ Globular cluster systems and Galaxy Formation
    ✓ Hot atmospheres of galaxies, groups, and clusters of galaxies
    ✓ The establishment of the Standard Cosmological Model through observations
    ✓ Exploiting solar visible-range observations by inversion techniques: from flows in the solar subsurface to a flaring atmosphere
    ✓ Starburst galaxies


    The book is intended for the general astronomical community as well as for advanced students who could use it as a guideline, inspiration and overview for their future careers in astronomy.
