Please consider submitting an abstract to the AGU Winter Meeting, held December 14-18 in San Francisco.
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.
