Chemical reactions in shock tubes
SEP 01, 1964
The use of shock tubes in the study of high‐temperature phenomena and fast chemical reactions has created a research area with problems of mutual concern to physicists and to chemists. The symposium summarized here (for which no formal publication of proceedings is planned) was held under the sponsorship of the United States Army Research Office in Durham, N. C. E. F. Greene, the author of this report, is professor of chemistry at Brown University.

From the 20th to the 22nd of April 1964, 85 chemists and physicists from England, Germany, Japan, Canada, and the United States gathered on the campus of Duke University for a symposium on chemical reactions in shock tubes. This meeting served to outline clearly both the contributions which shock tubes have made to chemical research and the prospects which may be anticipated in the near future.
