 p of the area\n\n\n\n\n\nScope of the Workshop series\nThe primary aim of 
 this series of Workshops is to assess the state-of-the-art and reliability
  of microbeam analysis techniques.\nThe Workshops are organised in such a 
 way as to maximise transfer of knowledge among the participants and to pro
 vide a comprehensive exhibition of the latest analytical equipment. The pr
 ogramme includes time and opportunities for participants to visit the tech
 nical exhibitions and interact with the manufacturers.\nPrevious Workshops
  in this series were held in Antwerp (1989)\, Dubrovnik (1991)\, Rimini (1
 993)\, St. Malo (1995)\, Torquay (1997)\, Konstanz (1999)\, Tampere (2001)
 \, Chiclana de la Frontera (2003)\, Florence (2005)\, Antwerp (2007)\, Gda
 nsk (2009)\, Angers (2011)\, Porto (2013)\, Portorož (2015)\, and Konstanz
  (2017). They included sessions covering electron (EPMA\, TEM\, SEM\, Auge
 r\, EELS)\, ion (SIMS\, FIB)\, and nuclear (RBS\, NRA) microbeam methods.
 \nThe main topics of the Sixteenth Workshop (EMAS 2019) are: electron prob
 e microanalysis (EPMA)\; electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD)\; automat
 ed mineralogy\; &micro\;-XRF fluorescence\; complementary techniques such 
 as combined Raman and EDS\, 3D SEM-EDS microanalysis\, combined TEM and at
 om probe tomography\; and materials applications of microbeam analysis. Ti
 me will also be devoted to problem orientated applications in material sci
 ence\, geological science\, environmental studies\, astrophysics\, microel
 ectronics\, forensics\, cultural heritage and archaeology\, nanomaterials\
 , surfaces and interfaces\, catalysts\, sensors\, &hellip\;\ntop\nRound-ta
 ble discussions\nOur round-table discussions are panel discussions taking 
 place at the end of each scientific session on a main topic.&nbsp\; They a
 re moderated by a leading expert\, assisted by the invited speakers of the
  corresponding session.\nThe idea is to stimulate the exchange of informat
 ion and experience among the participants on a number of important problem
 s in microbeam techniques.&nbsp\; Such activities need careful preparation
 \, both with regard to structure and subjects.&nbsp\; Therefore\, we would
  kindly request you to complete the discussion questionnaire on the on-lin
 e registration page.&nbsp\; If you have specific questions\, these can als
 o be mentioned in 'Other suggestions' on the questionnaire.\nBrief present
 ations or contributions to the round-table discussions are encouraged (ple
 ase contact the round-table chairperson at the beginning of the Workshop).
 \ntop\n Posters\nPoster contributions are welcome on subjects within the s
 cope of the workshop (see Scope).&nbsp\; The abstracts will be refereed by
  the International Scientific Committee and will be published\, together w
 ith the text of the invited lectures\, in the Book of Tutorials and Abstra
 cts of the workshop.\nThere will be three Oral Poster Sessions in which se
 lected authors will be given 5 minutes to present the highlights of their 
 poster using two or three powerpoint slides.&nbsp\; Those authors selected
  will be notified some weeks prior to the workshop.\nAuthors have the oppo
 rtunity to discuss their posters during the three poster sessions.&nbsp\; 
 Posters will be on display during the whole Workshop.&nbsp\; Size of the d
 isplay area: 1.33 m high by 0.94 m wide.\nAn EMAS Young Scientist Poster A
 ward will be given for the best poster by a young scientist (&lt\; 30 year
 s of age).&nbsp\; It encompasses a certificate and an invitation from AMAS
  - Australian Microbeam Analysis Society to present his/her work at a micr
 obeam event in Australia (the Award will include a free conference registr
 ation and financial support from AMAS and EMAS for travel and living expen
 ses).&nbsp\; An EMAS Workshop Poster Prize will be given encompassing a ce
 rtificate and a cash prize of &euro\; 500.\ntop\nYoung scientists' session
 \nOne session is dedicated to giving young scientists (post-graduates and 
 scientists under 30) the opportunity to present their work in a talk lasti
 ng 15 minutes including time for discussion.&nbsp\; There will be six such
  presentations selected from the submitted abstracts.\nThe best contributi
 on and presentation will receive a certificate and an invitation from the 
 Microanalysis Society of America (MAS) to present his/her work at the Micr
 oscopy and Microanalysis 2020 Meeting to be held in Milwaukee\, Wisconsin 
 (the invitation will include a free conference registration and financial 
 support from MAS and EMAS for travel and living expenses).\nYoung scientis
 ts wishing to be considered for this session should submit a written appli
 cation to the Workshop Secretariat\, reaching it before 15 November 2018\,
  and should be member of EMAS.&nbsp\; Recipients of an EMAS bursary are al
 so eligible to apply.\ntop\nAbstracts\nAbstracts to be presented during th
 e workshop should fit two A4 pages using the Word-template available on th
 e EMAS website (www.microbeamanalysis.eu).&nbsp\; Detailed guidelines are 
 mentioned on the template.&nbsp\; Online submission details are given on t
 he workshop webpage.\nThe abstract\, has to be submitted before 15 Novembe
 r 2018.&nbsp\; Authors will be notified of the acceptance of their poster 
 by 15 January 2019.\ntop\nPublication\nAuthors of accepted contributions a
 re encouraged to submit a manuscript for publication in a volume of the IO
 P - Institute of Physics Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineer

 hort courses&nbsp\; (Sunday May 19th\, 2019)\nEach course is limited to 25
  participants.&nbsp\; The courses are open to non workshop participants.&n
 bsp\; Cost per course\, covering course material\, a refreshment break and
  lunch\, is &euro\; 60 for &frac12\;-day courses and &euro\; 100 for the f
 ull day course.Introduction to EBSD&nbsp\; (full day)A full-day short cour
 se to introduce the physical and practical methods of electron backscatter
  diffraction (EBSD).&nbsp\; The course is given as a series of short lectu
 res.&nbsp\; The course is aimed at students\, technicians\, engineers and 
 researchers with either no or limited experience of EBSD although some fam
 iliarity with basic SEM techniques would be beneficial.&nbsp\; The course 
 will cover different aspects of EBSD including overview of EBSD and histor
 ical aspects\, some basics of sample preparation\, EBSD on non-conductive 
 materials\, and some clues for transmission EBSD work.&nbsp\; We will also
  demonstrate the advantages of distortion correction for large area scans 
 and offline EBSD capabilities\, which will be shown during a practical dem
 onstration.Introduction to quantitative EDS X-ray microanalysis&nbsp\; (mo
 rning)This course is aimed at new users to X-ray microanalysis in the SEM 
 utilising the energy-dispersive X-ray detector (EDS).&nbsp\; We will overv
 iew the generation of X-rays under electron beam bombardment\, review the 
 factors controlling emission of those X-rays and consider the performance 
 characteristics of the EDS and discuss the benefits and limitations of the
  resulting energy-dispersive spectrum.&nbsp\; We will then apply EDS to th
 e acquisition of quantitative analysis of materials (including a considera
 tion of standards-based analysis and standardless analysis) and mapping an
 d phase identification in unknown samples.Quantitative compositional mappi
 ng by EPMA - An introduction to XMapTools software&nbsp\; (morning)Over th
 e last decade\, quantitative compositional mapping has emerged as a powerf
 ul technique to aid petrological interpretations.&nbsp\; Chemical maps of 
 major and minor elements can both depict the spatial distribution of each 
 mineral phase and capture their compositional variability at the micro-sca
 le.&nbsp\; However\, computer tools are required to calibrate the maps and
  to produce numerical datasets that enable quantitative investigation of s
 pecific petrological processes.&nbsp\; The software solution XMapTools is 
 at the cutting edge of progress in this sector\, and aims to simplify the 
 data processing by providing statistical toolboxes and functions embedded 
 in a user-friendly graphical user interface.This &frac12\;-day short cours
 e is designed as an XMapTools beginner course\, where participants will be
  introduced to the software and learn how to calibrate and analyse composi
 tional maps acquired by EPMA.&nbsp\; It will provide an important foundati
 on accessible to high-level undergraduate students\, graduate students\, a
 nd professional researchers who are using or planning to use quantitative 
 compositional maps in their own studies.Introduction to transmission elect
 ron microscopy (TEM)&nbsp\; (morning)TEM &ndash\; transmission electron mi
 croscopy &ndash\; comprises a series of invaluable characterisation tools 
 covering a wide field of materials research.&nbsp\; The combination of unp
 aralleled spatial resolution (&lt\;1 &Aring\;) with a range of diffraction
 \, imaging and spectroscopic techniques means that researchers within fiel
 ds ranging from protein analysis in life science through chemistry and geo
 logy to metal\, semiconductor and nanomaterials technology will encounter 
 the technique as TEM data or in literature.This &frac12\;-day course will 
 give you a short introduction into this generic technique with a focus on 
 possibilities and limitations.&nbsp\; The general principles will be expla
 ined and relevant TEM expressions and abbreviations will be explained\, so
  that after this class you will both have an insight into whether or not T
 EM will be useful in your research (and how to proceed)\, and be more conf
 ident in understanding TEM data presented in literature and talks.Introduc
 tion to WDS X-ray microanalysis&nbsp\; (afternoon)Here we will consider bo
 th the parallel beam and Rowland circle wavelength-dispersive spectrometer
  (WDS) as applied to SEMs and EPMA respectively.&nbsp\; We will compare pe
 rformance characteristics of the WDS with the energy-dispersive spectromet
 er (EDS) and consider various aspects of the resulting WD spectrum.&nbsp\;
  A lecture on optimising the WDS setup in EPMA will precede discussions on
  the quantification of the WDS signal detailing its strengths and limitati
 ons.&nbsp\; We will conclude by looking at mapping using WDS.Participants 
 would ideally have an understanding of theory of X-ray generation under el
 ectron beam bombardment or have undertaken the course on EDS analysis in t
 he morning.Monte Carlo simulation&nbsp\; (afternoon)In electron microscopy
  and its analytical methods\, the electron- and photon-matter interactions
  play a dominant role.&nbsp\; The electrons and the atoms of a sample are 
 the reactants\, and the backscattered\, transmitted\, secondary electrons\
 , the characteristic\, and Bremsstrahlung X-rays\, the products.&nbsp\; As
  only the products of these interactions can be measured\, Monte Carlo sim
 ulations have been developed over the years to help microscopists understa
 nd\, visualise\, predict and get results obtained from their measurements.
 This &frac12\;-day short course aims to be as practical as possible\, prov
 iding tutorials how modern and freely available Monte Carlo programmes can
  be used to address common microanalysis problems and situations.&nbsp\; T
 aking advantage of their respective possibilities\, different programmes w
 ill be demonstrated in the course\, including Casino\, NISTMonte\, PENELOP
 E\, Monaco\, MC X-Ray and PyMonteCarlo.&nbsp\; Participants of the short c
 ourse at the EMAS 2017 Workshop are welcome to attend as well.&nbsp\; This
  short course will cover different Monte Carlo programmes and examples tha
 n in Konstanz.&nbsp\; Attendees are encouraged to bring a laptop.Electron 
 probe maintenance&nbsp\; (afternoon)The care and correct maintenance of an
  SEM is the key aspect for a correctly operating instrument. This workshop
  will cover many aspects of SEM maintenance. Some of the topics to be cove
 red include: vacuum systems and their maintenance\, cleaning of microscope
 s parts such as apertures and wehnelt assembly\, basic monitoring of instr
 ument\, testing of instrument operation (resolution\, magnification calibr
 ation)\, EDS maintenance and calibration\, monitoring filament conditions 
 (filament life improvement and setting)\, and sorting out imaging problems

 nbsp\;Realfagbygget&nbsp\;&nbsp\;H&oslash\;gskoleringen\, Trondheim\, Norw
 ayThe Realfagbygget is a modern concrete building\, with natural downlight
 s and high ceilings\, at the centre of the NTNU campus and has hosted seve
 ral conferences.Trondheim is a famous city from the Middle Ages in the cen
 tre of Norway with one of the most famous attractions being the Nidaros Ca
 thedral. The cathedral is built from soapstone and is the most famous attr
 action in Trondheim.The Nidelva river runs through the city centre\, quite
  close to the hotel accommodation. Walking paths follow the river all the 
 way through the city\, from the famous wooden buildings in the city centre
  through the forest and the big dam of &ldquo\;Nedre Leirfossen&rdquo\;. T
 he river is famous for its good salmon fishing\, which also takes place in
  the city centre\, and in June one sometimes can see and hear salmon jumpi
 ng while enjoying refreshments in the local pubs.Trondheim is also situate
 d right next the large Trondheimsfjord\, which host a rich population of f
 ish and wildlife such as small whales (porpoise) or even white tailed eagl
 es.Though Trondheim is a medium-sized city (&plusmn\; 190\,000 inhabitants
 ) it is closely surround by wild natural resorts\, including Bymarka and E
 stenstadmarka\, that in winter are used for cross country skiing (October/
 November through April/May)\, and hiking in the summer. The resorts host m
 any of the common northern Scandinavian animals\, such as moose\, and smal
 l predators like lynx and foxes. The resorts can be reached in less than 2
 0 minutes by bus or train from the city centre.\ntop\nHow to get to the Wo
 rkshop venue\nPlease also see the map at the bottom of this page.a) By air
 : Participants arriving by plane are advised to arrange travel through Tro
 ndheim V&aelig\;rnes airport\, from where an airport bus leaves for the ci
 ty centre\, with stops at all the hotels\, including the two proposed hote
 ls. From the city centre\, the workshop venue is within walking distance\,
  but bus number 5\, having stops close to the proposed hotels\, stops at t
 he NTNU campus\, with the &ldquo\;NTNU North&rdquo\; stop being next to th
 e Realfagbygget building\, which is the workshop venue.b) By car: Trondhei
 m can be reached by the E6. This is a 7-hour plus drive from Oslo\, taking
  you past some quite spectacular Norwegian Mountain terrains.\ntop\nThe we
 ather in Trondheim in May\nTrondheim has tempered climate. The day tempera
 tures in May varies quite significantly between different years\, sometime
 s with summer temperatures reaching up to 20 &deg\;C\, but also with the p
 ossibility of 5 &deg\;C and snow showers. It is therefore recommended to b
 ring a raincoat and a woollen sweater just in case\, though May is the mos
