By contrast to other plasma spectrochemistry
meetings, the FREE short courses (2 hours duration) will be offered to all
participants during the four day meeting which may be very attractive to
participants to learn about and to be updated on plasma spectrochemistry. We
are planning to organise 14 short courses, two or three in parallel each day ,
as part of the conference. This concept is ment to stimulate Nordic users of
plasma based techniques to learn more about theoretical and practical issues as
well as obtain specialists recommendations for methods improvements. Thus these
short courses are also a unique opportunity for laboratory engineers to be
updated.
The aim of the conference is to provide a
forum to encourage the exchange of ideas and knowledge about recent developments
and state-of-the-art knowledge in main areas of plasma spectrochemistry. The
conference will bring together international participants experienced in
fundamental aspects, instrumentation and applications in typical Norwegian
informal settings to examine recent progress in this continuing growing
field; approximately 100 participants are expected to attend.
Topics to be discussed: - Fundamental aspects and instrumental developments of:
- plasma sources (ICP, DCP, MIP, GD)
- plasma source atomic emission and mass spectrometry
- laser-assisted plasma spectrometry
- plasma source detectors in speciation analysis
- sample preparation, sample introduction and transport phenomena
- uncertainties of measurements
- Applications of plasma spectrochemistry in the analysis of:
- speciation analysis
- industrial products
- environmental and occupational pollutants
- food and agriculture products
- aquatic systems
- terrestrial/geological materials
- biological/clinical materials
- reference materials
- radioactive and stable element species
