Recent Advances in Analytical Spectroscopy

Recent Advances in Analytical Spectroscopy covers the joint meeting of the Ninth International Conference on Atomic Spectroscopy and the 22nd Colloquium Spectroscopicum Internationale, held at the New Otani Hotel and Sophia University, Tokyo, Japan, on September4-8, 1981. The joint meeting features 446 including 74 invited lectures and 39 poster sessions. This book is divided into 26 chapters, which reflect the analytical spectroscopic topics covered in 20 sessions, including plasma emission spectrometry, DC arc, spark and other emission spectrometry, and hydride generation technique for atomic spectrometry. Other chapters deal with furnace atomic absorption spectrometry, Zeeman atomic absorption spectrometry, atomic spectrometric detection systems for separation analysis, atomic fluorescence and scattering spectroscopy, flame atomic absorption spectrometry, spectroscopy for chemical state analysis, spectroscopy for surface and interface analysis. The remaining chapters discuss the application of computers in analytical spectroscopy, developments in laser spectroscopy, application to life science, environmental and geochemical applications, X-ray analysis, UV-VIS spectroscopy, IR and Raman spectroscopy, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and photoacoustic spectrometry. This book will be of value to analytical chemists and related scientists and researchers.
