The Fifth Workshop on Galactic Chemodynamics

The Fifth Workshop on Galactic Chemodynamics (GCDV) is the pre-eminent workshop devoted exclusively to observational and theoretical research into the formation and evolution of galaxies. GCDV brought together 46 researchers from 13 countries for an intensive workshop at Swinburne University in July 2003. Each of the 28 papers included in the workshop proceedings have been formally refereed in their entirety, published as a special volume of the Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, and available through NASA’s Astronomical Data System (ADS).
