Inductively Coupled Plasmas in Analytical Atomic Spectrometry

The broadest source of information on analytical ICP spectrometry available in a coherent, single volume.

Renowned contributors define theory, diagnostics, models, instrumentation and applications. They also discuss atomic emission, atomic fluorescence and mass spectrometries based on ICP sources for atomization, excitation and ionization.

"This book is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED."
Analytical Chemistry

"... a handy reference for anyone attempting to understand the theory of ICPs and how they work. The detailed discussions of the various types of instrumentation and methods will be quite helpful to students and researchers in the field who want to broaden their understanding of analytical atomic spectroscopy."
Applied Spectroscopy

"...Everyone involved in elemental analysis using ICP should have this book. It is useful for both experienced and novice ICP spectroscopists."
Spectroscopy

Namhafte Autoren, alles hervorragende Kapazitaten auf ihrem Gebiet, definieren Theorie, Diagnostik, Modelle, apparative Ausrustung und Anwendungen. Sie diskutieren die Emission und Fluoreszenz der Atome sowie massenspektrometische Verfahren, die auf ICP-Quellen aufbauen, fur die Zerlegung, Anregung und Ionisation.
Schon die erfolgreiche erste Auflage war ein vertrauter Orientierungspunkt fur die zahlreichen analytischen Chemiker, die auf der ICP-Spektrometrie arbeiten. Die vorliegende zweite Auflage ubertrifft den Vorganger noch in ihrer Leistung: Sie ist merklich uberarbeitet und erweitert, um mehr Raum zu geben fur eine umfassendere Behandlung der grundlegenden Parameter, der mathema- tischen Modelle der ICPs sowie der Anwendungen und Grundlagen der ICP-Massenspektrometrie.Das Werk enthalt funf vollig neue Kapitel. Jedes der neuen oder auf den neuesten Stand gebrachten Kapitel enthalt einen kurzen Lehrgang, Hintergrundwissen und eine Biblio- graphie.
In der zweiten Auflage bleibt dieses Werk in dem standig wachsen- den Feld der analytischen ICP-Spektrometrie auf der Hohe der Zeit. Es ist ein moderner Meilenstein fur den Wissenschaftler,den prak- tischen Analytiker und sollte in keinem analytischen Labor fehlen.

Inductively Coupled Plasmas in Analytical Atomic Spectrometry, Second Edition
Edited by Akbar Montaser and D.W. Golightly

Inductively Coupled Plasmas in Analytical Atomic Spectrometry, 2nd Edition, is the broadest source of information on analytical ICP spectrometry available in a coherent, single volume. Renowned contributors define theory, diagnostics, models, instrumentation and applications and discuss atomic emission, atomic fluorescence and mass spectrometries based on ICP sources for atomization, excitation and ionization. Following the successful first edition, this newest version improves upon excellence. It is significantly revised and expanded to give broader coverage of fundamental parameters, mathematical models of ICPs and applications and current of ICP-MS. Keeping on top of this steadily growing field of analytical ICP spectrometry, this new edition is a comprehensive modern benchmark for the researcher, the practicing analyst and the laboratory manager.
