.The Third Symposium in held at the Bundesakademie
( fUr Wehrverwaltung und Wehrtechnik (BakWVT),
Mannheia, FRG, fix July 10 to 13, 1989.
This Symposium is one of a series started in 1983
in Quantico, VA, USA. The Second Symposium was held
in Neurim, Israel, 1986.
- The Symposia have international attendance. The main
purpose of these Symposia is to provide a forum for
* the discussion of the special problems in the field
of analysis and detection of explosives: fundamental
=studies, applications, development of instrumentation
and methods and their evaluation and the improvement
of established techniques.)
About 20 countries are expected to be represented at
the Symposium. 48 papers have been submitted. Of these
papers four havy been withdrawn.
-The Symposium also includes the display of instrumen-
tation and equipment rpecialized for the needs of the
analysis and detection of explosives research community.
Professor Jehuda Yinon of The Weiznann Institute of
Science, Rehovot, Israel and Dr. Frank Conrad of Sandia
National Laboratory, Albuquerque, NM, USA, have been
invited as Keynote Speakers.
For the first time we have managed to have the Proceed-
ings published in a hardbound volume prior to starting
the Symposium. We hope this meets with your approval.
This does, however, require strict adherence to dead-
lines for publishing. For those who have submitted the
manuscript too late, we offer the possibility of publi-
cation in our Journal "Propellants, Explosives and Pyro-
techniques-.
Thank you all for your kind attendance. We wish you a
most informative and enjoyable meeting.
