Summary

All papers have been peer-reviewed. Chemical elements are fundamental matter to comprise the universe and hold a great deal of interest for astronomers and nuclear physicists, for these play an important role in understanding the dawn of the universe to the formation of solar system. This volume contains the proceedings of the symposium that aims to understand the origin and evolution of the universe through the current knowledge of nuclear astrophysics.
