2022 Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry

The 2022 Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry, 22nd in a series of biennial meetings sponsored by the ICP Information Newsletter, features developments in plasma spectrochemical analysis by inductively coupled plasma (ICP), dc plasma (DCP), microwave plasma (MIP), glow discharge (GDS), and laser sources (LA, LIBS, LAMIS). The meeting will be held Monday, January 17 through Saturday, January 22, 2022, in Tucson, Arizona, (www.visitTucson.org) at the El Conquistador Tucson Resort (www.hiltonelconquistador.com). Professional development short courses at introductory and advanced levels and manufacturers' seminars will be offered Friday through Tuesday, January 14 - 18. Spectroscopic instrumentation and accessories will be shown during a three-day exhibition from January 18 to 20, and workshops on New and Novel Plasma Instrumentation, Cannabis, Clinical ICP-MS, Isotope Analysis, Elemental Imaging and Mass Cytometry, and Advanced Materials methodology will be presented Tuesday through Friday afternoons.

Topics: Sample introduction and transport phenomena, Micronebulization and flow processing spectrochemical analysis, 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, Novel plasma spectrochemical applications
