International Workshop on Advanced Techniques in Actinide Spectroscopy (ATAS)

Complementary application of various spectroscopic techniques and their combination with theoretical approaches can lead to a more profound understanding of structures, thermodynamics and kinetics of actinide complex formation. The workshop focuses on recent advances in actinide chemistry from both a spectroscopic and theoretical point of view.

It covers vibrational spectroscopy (IR and Raman), laser-induced spectroscopy (luminescence and photoacoustic), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and quantum chemical calculations. Improvements of in situ experimental setups, applications of quantum chemical methods in predictive and interpretative ways as well as new data processing algorithms are major topics. Extended discussions shall be placed on current developments of the spectroscopic methods towards more challenging environmental conditions (such as alkaline pH values, low actinide concentrations), enhancing techniques to resolve kinetic processes, extending the range of covered elements and redox states, increasing spatial resolution, and improving signal-to-noise ratios.

Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
