The interest in the photoacoustic effect as a base of new experimental techniques increased appreciately in the last ten years. Originally, the effect was used in the optic spectroscopy to investigate very weak optical absorption of gases. Now more and more publications report on applications to an increasing number of fields. This volume presents the contributions to the first international conference on the photoacoustic effect held in Germany. Corresponding to the present situation in photoacoustics, contributions on basic principles of the effect still represent the relative majority of the papers. Spectroscopy and detection of minute concentrations as well as monitoring the different partners in chemical reactions have remained up to now the main field of analytical application. There is, however, a growing number of new problems mostly unknown in photoacoustics still at the end of the seventies. Calorimetric applications to phase transitions, energy conversion processes as well as monitoring of photochemical reactions have gained remarkable attention within the photoacoustic community. It should be expected photoacoustics to become still more interdisciplinary in character. Applications of the photoacoustic effect to fields, at first sight so far distant, as electron paramagnetic resonance as well as nondestructive testing of materials are hints to this direction. Contributions on instrumentation rounded up the exchange of many field's knowledge. One value of this conference was&to make participants more aware of this evolutionary interaction. It offered the important opportunity to promote the spreading of that powerful technique into a still growing field of·a
