Work begun during the Solar Maximum Year (SMY) (1980-1981) was the focus of several sympsoia and workshops starting in March 1981 with the International SMY Workshop in Simferopol, Crimea (Obridko 1981). Results of the Annecy SMY Workshop (Annecy, France, October 1981) were presented in May 1982 with later work presented at the first SMY symposium (ĸvestka et al. 1982) in Ottawa, Canada. A special symposium for the Study of Travelling Interplanetary Phenomena was held in Maynooth, Ireland, in August 1982 (Shea et al. 1984). Another SMY workshop was held in November 1983 in Kunming, China (Chen 1984), and the second SMY symposium was held in June 1984 in Graz, Austria (Simon 1985). The scientific progress of the SMY is detailed in the above-mentioned publications and in the 1982 U.S.-Japan Seminar “Recent Advances in the Understanding of Solar Flares” (Kane et al. 1983). Highlights of the work of the SMY’s Flare Build-Up Study, Study of Energy Release in Flares, and Study of Travelling Interplanetary Phenomena are presented below.
