The two-volume book contains 77 revised, edited, and formatted articles written by international experts in physical and chemical kinetics, physics of low temperature and cluster plasma, physics of shock and detonation waves, physics and chemistry of clusters and nanoparticles, combustion and atmospheric chemistry, physics and chemistry of high-speed flow, plasma and laser chemistry, plasma-, laser- and combustion-assisted technologies.

This volume is a continuation of the series of books covering the research and development results presented at the biannual International Colloquia on Pulsed and Continuous Detonations (ICPCD) organized since 1998 and jointly sponsored by the U.S. Office of Naval Research and the Russian Foundation for Basic Research. It contains 38 selected condensed articles presented by international experts at the Colloquium of 2016.

The book contains twenty-six papers selected from the ninety-nine papers pre-sented in the Flight Physics sessions at EUCASS 2015 in Krakow, Poland. These papers were reviewed by experts, revised, and throughly edited to provide state-of-the-art knowledge in their respective fields.

The book contains 24 selected, revised and thoroughly edited papers addressing various issues of propulsion physics written by world-known experts. The papers include critical analyses of previous studies and controversial aspects of novel propulsion concepts, new theoretical and experimental results and findings as well as numerous references to archival publications worldwide.
