The Latest Trends in Atomic Spectroscopy: A Virtual Symposium

This event is now available on demand.

Event Overview

This annual symposium, organized with the Society for Applied Spectroscopy, and The Coblentz Society, covers advances in atomic spectroscopy with great speakers on advancing both theory and practical applications of inductively coupled-plasma-mass spectrometry, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy, and more for atomic analysis.

Key Learning Objectives

Analytical scientists who attend this educational event will learn:

The latest research and advances in atomic spectroscopy.
The use of ICP-MS for fluorine detection.
The theory basic instrumentation, and practice of LA-ICP-MS for archaeometry and environmental exposure analysis of human hair.
The evolution of actinide isotope ratio determinations with liquid sampling.

Who Should Attend

Analytical chemists in academia, government labs, and industry who want to learn more about the latest techniques and research in atomic spectroscopy.
