The President Cusco, September 2007 Our manufacturers

A huge innovation in instrumentation to be displayed at the exhibition : correctors, guns, spectrometers, monochromators, stages…

JEOL Zeiss But they are now often hidden and shy!! A couple of new «protected»monsters, Nion and TEAM 1 However, if you have the authorization and the right equipment, you may peep at the inside (with the permission of U. Dahmen, NCEM, Berkeley)

For sure, you will learn a lot about instruments, interpretation and applications during the week at the Windsor Barra Convention Centre Happy and sad news from IFSM
