The Bosscha Observatory in Lembang, Java, Indonesia, celebrated in 1983 its sixtieth anniversary. on account that its origin, the actual houses of binary structures have shaped a big study subject of this observatory. till 1970, the learn of visible binaries and the selection of orbits obtained so much emphasis. on the grounds that then, additionally the evolution of shut binary structures, similar to X-ray binaries, Wolf-Rayet binaries and binary pulsars, has been researched with precedence in Lembang. It appeared hence acceptable Colloquium dedicated to the research of binary structures be held in Lembang on the time of the Observatory's anniversary. within the Colloquium, the position of extensive double (and a number of) structures bought particular emphasis - not just end result of the lengthy culture of visible binary learn at Lembang; but in addition simply because their position in documenting stellar evolution has been mostly ignored in contemporary a long time, and wishes to be introduced into concentration with the data approaching from shut binaries. The Colloquium coated the actual houses of visible in addition to shut binary platforms, and their commonplace kinfolk, within the broadest attainable feel. It used to be subsidized by means of the overseas Astronomical Union as IAU Colloquium No. eighty ('Double Stars, actual houses and popular Relations'). After the legitimate commencing rite, the assembly begun with a dialogue at the way forward for astronomy in Asia. The clinical periods started with the 'V. Bappu Memorial Lecture at the Evolution of Binary Systems', awarded through Z. Kopal.

This group of objects is set apart by the very special observing technique they require; they are more properly called, as part of a wider family, astrometric binaries. Our best· hopes to find 'substellar' masses and perhaps even planets around other stars, rest with this way of investigation. The planets are a controversial question we do not want to touch upon here: it mainly concerns the nearby Barnard's star and its possible planetary companions.
