Presents a review focusing on techniques and their application to the analysis of geological and inorganic materials that offer significant changes to research and routine work. Covers geostandards, spectroscopy, plasmas, microbeam techniques, synchrotron X-ray methods, nuclear activation methods, chromatography, and electroanalytical methods.…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a new technique that affords anatomic images in multiple planes and may provide information on tissue characterization. This document describes how MR images are obtained and discusses how they differ from those produced by x-rays. The major portion of this report covers a conference held in October, 1987, which…
