Summary of the Meeting
This was a meeting between two large groups of researchers: astrophysicists and space physicists, on the one hand, and laboratory plasma physicists, on the other. The meeting has clearly demonstrated a growing mutual interest of these two groups: presenters of one group tried to make their talks understandable to another group, discussions were very lively, and a number of points for further joint effort have been identified. This was a timely meeting in view of the explosion of observational data from new space and ground based instruments. New phenomena have been observed and/or understood more clearly, including gamma ray burst sources, the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect, the anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background, high magnetic field pulsars or magnetars, solar acoustic spectroscopy, ultra luminous star burst galaxies, and many others.
