One of the important activities of The Combustion Institute during the period of Grant AFOSR-90-0332 DEF, effective September 15, 1990, was the Twenty-Third International Symposium on Combustion. The proceedings were published in a volume as a permanent record. It includes the Hottel Lecture, four invited papers, three invited mini-reviews, and 230 contributed papers, all refereed by the Program Subcommittee. Peter P. Gray, Master of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge University gave the Hottel Lecture on The Non-linear Role of Chemistry in Combustion. Papers were organized in five Colloquia: Reaction Kinetics in Combustion; Laminar Flames; Turbulent Combustion; Combustion in Practical Systems; Combustion of Solid Fuels. Topical sessions included Detonations, Diagnostic Methods, Fire, High Temperature Synthesis, Ignition, Microgravity Combustion, Non-Steady Flames, Propellents, Soot, and Spray and Droplet Combustion There were 307 poster presentations of work-in-progress presented at the conference Over 1,000 scientists from 25 countries attended the symposium. Research papers were also presented ac our Section Meetings during this period on various subjects of combustion. We publish our journal, 'Combustion and Flame, ' monthly.
