The Fourth Symposium on Double Layers and Other Nonlinear Potential Structures in Plasmas was held in July 1992 in Austria. 86 scientists from all parts of the world attended. The 51 papers that were contributed, in addition to 14 invited lectures, have been compiled in this book. The main topics discussed during the Symposium include experiments, theory, simulation, space and others. The invited speakers concentrated on the various laboratory double layers, theoretical and numerical treatments of double layers and the existence of magnetospheric double layers. The last topic in particular inspired much lively and interesting debate among the participants.
