IAU Colloquium 194 was devoted to presentation of new results which were obtained from recent study of compact binaries. The compact binaries are a well defined group of objects, but they are devided into a dozen types and classes dependingly upon the masses of the components, mass transfer rates, magnetic field strengths, etc. Some stand out by their observational characteristics but are still pending appropriate explanation. Better knowledge of Close Binaries facilitates our understanding of a broader range of astrophysical objects, from disk and angular momentum loss in protostars to instabilities in the disks of active galactic nuclei. This conference is expected to highlight the latest achievements in mentioned areas.
