Gordon Research Conference On The Physics And Chemistry Of Laser Diagnostics In Combustion Held In Plymouth New Hampshire On 12 16 July 1993

The 1993 Gordon Research Conference on the Physics and Chemistry of laser Diagnostics in Combustion was held at Plymouth State College (South) in Plymouth, New Hampshire, July 12-16, 1993. This conference is primarily concerned with the fundamental physics and chemistry underlying the wide variety of laser-based optical spectroscopic diagnostic techniques which are used for studying combustion processes. The focus is on in-situ and nonperturbing optical methods for one-, two-, and three-dimensional measurements of species concentrations, temperature, and velocity. The development of such quantitative methods using linear and nonlinear optical interactions encompasses a broad scope of interdisciplinary research including basic and applied physics and chemistry.
