Abstract

We present a short synthetic summary of prospects for stellar astrophysicsfrom Dome C. We conclude that a progressive strategy could be defined, givingaccess to a 2 m-class telescope, equipped with a highly efficient optical/infrared spectrograph/spectropolarimeter and a wide-field infrared imager, in the 2008 timeframe, then evolving toward a larger telescope with integral field spectroscopic capabilities, and finally to more ambitious instruments, such as interferometers.
