Heavy Ion Fusion (Report on the International Symposium, Washington, D.C., 27–29 May 1986).

The International Symposium on Heavy Ion Fusion held 27–29 May 1986 in Washington, D.C., was the third in a series of symposia previously held in Darmstadt (1982) and Tokyo (1984). These symposia continued the strong tradition of international co-operation fostered at a preceding series of workshops on heavy ion fusion held in the USA (Berkeley, 1976 and 1979; Brookhaven National Laboratory, 1977; and Argonne National Laboratory, 1978).
