Abstract
The principal aim of this conference has been to address the issues that pertain to our quest for understanding what is happening in the very heart of the sun, where nuclear reactions produce the energy required to replace the emission from the photosphere. As a result of this energy balance the structure of the sun has hardly varied over the last 4.6 Gy or so. The sun has belonged, and does still belong, to what astronomers call the hydrogen-burning main sequence.
