Stellar populations; Proceedings of the Meeting, Baltimore, MD, May 20-22, 1986Various papers covering recent findings on stellar populations are presented. The topics addressed include: the bulges of the Galaxy and M31, kinematics of the local subdwarfs and the collapse of the Galaxy, the red stellar population of the local group dwarf galaxies, globular clusters in the local group galaxies, the initial mass function, and star formation histories of galactic disks. Also discussed are: yield and abundance constraints on galactic chemical evolution, population synthesis in early type galaxies, the evolution of stellar populations in galaxies, a theoretical perspective on spectral evolution of galaxies, and the structure and kinematics of galaxy populations.
