promote and encourage developments in both fundamental and applied atomic spectroscopy including ICP-MS and XRF by providing a friendly environment where delegates can meet formally and informally to exchange ideas views and results. Plenary lectures given by world renowned spectroscopists provide overviews of important areas of atomic spectroscopy. Invited and submitted lectures as well as posters cover the most recent developments in both pure and applied atomic spetcroscopy. Although the majority of papers tend to focus on analytical applications presentations on theoretical studies or fundamental advances in AA AE AF and XRF are also important components of each BNASS. Preparation and Sample Introduction has been organised for the morning of Wednesday July 27. The course will include aspects of ICP-AES AAS AES XRF AFS and ICP-MS.Separate registration is required. Papers should discuss original unpublished work. Manuscripts of accepted papers will be considered for publication in a special issue JAAS.
