You are invited to submit an abstract to the AGU Winter Meeting, held
December 14-18 in San Francisco. We will be holding a session in the
VGP section:
V19: Standards for Microanalysis: EPMA, LA-ICPMS and SIMS--Where are
we and Where do we Need to Go?
Often the most critical possession of a microanalytical lab is not
the expensive instrumentation but rather its collection of standards.
But how good are those standards? More detailed investigations and
comparisons of some standard materials have revealed inhomogeneities
and values contradictory to the accepted/published ones. This is an
opportunity for microanalysts to meet and share experiences and
critically evaluate the standards which we are currently using. We
will also have presentations by those who create, develop, and
certify standards. This is your chance to populate a new standards
wish list for the microanalytical community. (Cosponsored by
Microbeam Analysis Society)
