Most of the material covered in this book deals with the fundamentals of chemistry and physics of key processes and fundamental mechanisms for various combustion and combustion related phenomena in gaseous combustible mixture. It provides the reader with basic knowledge of burning processes and mechanisms of reaction wave propagation. The combustion of a gas mixture (flame, explosion, detonation) is necessarily accompanied by motion of the gas. The process of combustion is therefore not only a chemical phenomenon but also one of gas dynamics.
The material selection focuses on the gas phase and with premixed gas combustion. Premixed gas combustion is of practical importance in engines, modern gas turbine and explosions, where the fuel and air are essentially premixed, and combustion occurs by the propagation of a front separating unburned mixture from fully burned mixture. Since premixed combustion is the most fundamental and potential for practical applications, the emphasis in the present work is be placed on regimes of premixed combustion.
This text is intended for graduate students of different specialties, including physics, chemistry, mechanical engineering, computer science, mathematics and astrophysics.

About Author
Dr. Michael A. (Mikhail) Liberman is a professor of theoretical physics at the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics (Nordita) Royal Institute of Technology and Stockholm University. His scientific interests span from plasma physics to quantum coherence, Bose-Einstein condensation of excitons, combustion theory and astrophysics.
A graduate of Moscow State University, Liberman obtained his PhD from the P.N. Lebedev Physical Institute of Russian Academy of Sciences, commencing his career as a theoretical physicist with the guidance from legendary scientists, Yakov Zel’dovich and Ilia Lifshits at the L. Landau theoretical department of the famous P. L. Kapitza Institute for Physical Problems. During that period he was awarded his second doctorate degree (‘habilitation’) at the G.I. Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics. Liberman continues to carry traditions of the Russian theoretical physics throughout his career at Uppsala University and, presently, at Nordita, drawing the most brilliant physicists from around the world into collaboration. In 1993 Liberman was elected professor of theoretical physics at Uppsala University. He is currently a professor at NORDITA, emeritus at Uppsala University, and honorary professor at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.
