Welcome to the seventh International Symposium

The International Symposium on Nonequilibrium Processes, Plasma, Combustion and Atmospheric Phenomena is a forum of international experts in such fundamental areas as physical and chemical kinetics, physics of low temperature and cluster plasmas, physics of shock and detonation waves, physics and chemistry of aerosols and nanoparticles, combustion and atmospheric chemistry, physics and chemistry of high speed flows, plasma and laser chemistry, plasma, laser and combustion assisted technologies. This symposium has already become a notable biannual event attracting a growing attendance of scientists from all over the world. The first symposium was organizing in St Petersburg, Russia, 8–11 July 2003, and was dedicated to the memory of N N Semenov, a founder of the chain-branching reaction theory and a Nobel prizewinner.

The Organizing Committee invites you to participate in Seventh International Symposium that will be held in Sochi, Russia, October 2-7, 2016.

Objective

The objective of the Symposium is to provide a forum for international experts in kinetics of physical and chemical nonequilibrium processes, oxidation and combustion of hydrocarbon, metallized, and synthetic fuels, as well as laser, plasma, and aerosol physics and chemistry to discuss novel approaches to combustion with high efficiency and low pollutant emission, to address the issues of combustion-generated pollutants and technogeneous aerosols, aviation — produced particles and their environmental effects, and application of laser radiation, plasma and combustion for production of nanoparticles and surface treatment.
