Rarefied gas dynamics

Abstract

The program of this symposium, which was held in Paris 26–29 June, 1962, included papers on new developments in the theory of flow of neutral and partly ionized gases at low densities, interactions between gas molecules and solid surfaces, high-speed and thermal molecular beams, measurements of drag and heat transfer in the transition and free molecule flow regime, and new experimental techniques. About 25 of the 60 papers presented are discussed in the following pages; the complete program is reproduced as Appendix I.
