Partial display of figure captions in the list of figures

Question

Consider the below figure and the caption.

Now I want to display only part of the caption in the list of figures instead of the entire caption. For example, here I would like to display "Figure 1.3: Burke-Schumann flame structure in mixture fraction space", only in the list of figures. Is there a way to do this?

Figure captions: Use the optional argument of \caption:

\caption[short title for list of figures]{long title for text}
