Abstract :
A hearty welcome is extended to all of you attending the 1966 G-MTT International Microwave Symposium, With considerable effort on the part of the Program Committee, a full and exciting four day program is presented. Invited speakers and guests will give a truly international breath and technical depth to the coverage, However, the true core of a scientific symposium lies in the new and unpublished work to be presented in the contributed papers. This year marks the close of the third decade of continuous and strong effort in the microwave field in this community. The culmination of one single stream of endeavor is represented by the ensuing completion of the Stanford Linear Accelerator - a task of great magnitude and scientific promise. It is hoped that you will find time to tour this activity.
