It is a great pleasure to have the opportunity to honor our
distinguished colleague, Professor Leo Brewer, on the occasion of
his sixty-fifth birth day, with this special volume of High
Temperature Science. Leo and his wife, Rose, are personal friends
of several generations of students and postdoctoral researchers at
the University of California at Berkeley. Their concern and
understanding has been important to many of us over the past forty
years. Each paper in this volume has at least one author who was a
gradu ate student or a postdoctoral researcher in Leo's laboratory
at Berkeley. The variety of topics is indicative of the
wide-ranging science done by Brewer-ites and by Leo Brewer himself.
He has personally participated in the resolution of many of the
classical problems of high-temperature science-from the heat of
sublimation of graphite to the dissociation en ergy of nitrogen to
the prediction of binary and ternary phase diagrams. He and his
students have made major contributions to atomic and molec ular
spectroscopy. He has made significant contributions to the develop
ment of efficient systems for energy conversion and to ceramics. In
addi tion to his research activities, Leo Brewer has been a
long-time participant in the dynamic undergraduate teaching program
of the Berkeley Chemistry Department. He has provided crucial
insight for stu dents involved in those career-shaping experiences
that one endures while acquiring the basics of inorganic, organic,
and physical chemistry with that interwoven common bond of
thermodynamics."
