*Short courses start on January 9th

The continued growth in popularity of plasma sources for atomization and excitation in atomic spectroscopy and ionization in mass spectrometry and the need to discuss recent developments of these discharges in spectrochemical analysis stimulated the organization of this meeting.  The Conference will bring together international scientists experienced  in applications, instrumentation, and theory in an informal setting to  examine recent progress in the field. Approximately 500 participants  from 30 countries are expected to attend.

Symposia will be organized and chaired by recognized experts and will include many topics such as sample  introduction and transport phenomena; micronebulization and flow  processing spectrochemical analysis; fluorine and PFAS detection; nanomaterial analysis and  characterization; elemental speciation, metallomics and sample  preparation for speciation; plasma instrumentation, including  advanced detectors, chemometrics, expert/smart systems, on-line  analysis, microplasmas, software, and remote-system automation; sample preparation, treatment and automation; excitation mechanisms,  plasma phenomena and modeling; spectroscopic standards and reference  materials, and high-purity materials; plasma source mass  spectrometry; glow discharge atomic and mass spectrometry; stable  isotope analyses; laser-assisted plasma spectrometry; advanced  materials bulk and surface characterization, elemental Imaging and  mass cytometry, and novel plasma spectrochemical applications.
