Abstract :
The International Conference Series on Gas Discharges and Their Applications was formed in London by the Institute of Electrical Engineers in 1970. Overall control of the Series now rests with the Executive Management Committee. They can take advice on various matters from the International Scientific Committee, which is newly formed for each conference from leaders in the various scientific disciplines. Conferences have been taken to many universities in several countries where there are scientific communities involved in research into the behaviour of electricity in gases. Individual conferences are run by the Local Organizing Committee which is formed for each event.
