This investigation concerns radiative heat transfer; its purpose is to          develop a technique which will allow, for the first time, a                     simultaneous determination of the refractive index, size and                    concentration of soot particles in flames from light scattering                 measurements.  Knowledge of the refractive indices of soot particles is         required for determining radiative heat transfer from flames and for            assessing the mechanism of carbon formation and growth in flames using          laser diagnostics.  Determination of these indices under flame                  conditions is a formidable problem and reliable values have yet to be           established.  In the proposed study, a technique for inferring                  refractive indices from in-situ optical measurements will be developed.
