✦ Synopsis

The first of a series of symposia to be organized by the British Section of the Combustion Institute was held at Imperial College on 27 September 1961. It is proposed to hold similar discussion meetings at various centres of combustion research at approximately sixmonthly intervals. The aim of the meetings is to promote free discussion on selected combustion topics. It is not the policy of the British Section that formal papers should be presented. An attempt will, however, be made to publish a condensed report of the meetings in Combustion and Flame. A report compiled from the contributions of a number of participants to the first meeting is included in the present issue (p 46).

Symposium on Ignition

Readers of Combustion and Flame are reminded that the British Section of the Combustion Institute plan to hold an informal oneday Symposium on Ignition on Tuesday 17 April in the Houldsworth School of Applied Science, University of Leeds. The discussion will include spontaneous ignition and ignition by sparks or other sources of energy. Readers wishing to take part are invited to write immediately to Dr G. DIXON-
