Analytical techniques with high sensitivity and high spatial resolution are crucial for
understanding the chemical properties of complex earth materials and environmental …

Inclusions in minerals, whether fluids, melts or crystalline phases, are small pieces of the
large-scale puzzle of Nature, time-consuming to investigate and often of difficult …

The concentration of halogens (Cl, Br) and sulfate in seawater during the Archaean eon
have important implications for the evolution of Earth's hydrosphere and atmosphere and the …

In-situ measurements of the amount of dissolution of carbonate minerals at high pressures
(up to 3.6 GPa) and temperatures (up to 523 K) are reported. Using an externally heated …

Synchrotron radiation X-ray fluorescence (SR-XRF) was used to characterize As speciation
within natural fluid inclusions from three deposits with different hydrogeochemical and …

A critical problem for conducting quantitative analysis of individual fluid inclusions using
Synchrotron X-Ray Fluorescence (SXRF) technique relates to the standardization and the …

This is the eighteenth annual review published in JAAS of the application of atomic
spectroscopy to the chemical analysis of environmental samples. The review follows on …

Fluid inclusions are studied using synchrotron radiation induced μ-X-ray fluorescence (μ-SR-
XRF). We analyse inclusions from the Brusson gold deposit, Italy. Several two-phase (liquid …

Synchrotron-based X-ray micro-fluorescence (μ-SXRF) is a non-destructive analytical
technique and has been widely used to detect and quantify the elemental composition of …

A full-field x-ray fluorescence imaging microscope using a Wolter mirror was constructed at
Photon Factory BL3C2. White x rays from a bending magnet were used to excite x-ray …
