Handbook of X Ray Spectrometry Revised and Expanded by Rene Van Grieken
//
The positive response to the first edition of Handbook of X-Ray Spectrometry: Methods
and Techniques and its commercial success have shown that in the early 1990s there was
a clear demand for an exhaustive book covering most of the specialized approaches in this
field. Therefore, some five years after the first edition appeared, the idea of publishing
a second edition emerged. In the meantime, remarkable and steady progress has been
made in both instrumental and methodological aspects of x-ray spectrometry. This
progress includes considerable improvements in the design and production technology of
detectors and in capillary optics applied for focusing the primary photon beam. The
advances in instrumentation, spectrum evaluation, and quantification have resulted in
improved analytical performance and in further extensions of the applicability range of x-
ray spectrometry. Consequently, most of the authors who contributed to the first edition
of this book enthusiastically accepted the invitation to update their chapters. The progress
made during the last decade is reflected well in the chapters of the second edition, which
were all considerably revised, updated, and expanded. A completely new chapter on mi-
crobeam x-ray fluorescence analysis has also been included.
