註釋Recent research in wide-field astronomy is reported in these papers from an August 2000 conference, encompassing theoretical developments as well as innovations in observational instrumentation. Advances in wide-field cosmology and extragalactic astronomy, wide-field galactic astronomy, wide-field planetary astronomy, databases and access, new telescopes and instruments, and new surveys are detailed. There is also material on the wide-field photographic legacy. Some specific topics are the Chandra Multi-wavelength Project, cosmology of the space-luminosity distribution of virialized halos, galaxy formation at high redshifts, the faint sky variability survey, saving astronomical treasures, and searching for NEOs using wide-field telescopes.
