Whether they are used for dating or compositional analysis, the data they produce is invaluable for archaeologists, curators and conservation scientists. This second edition addresses present microscopic characterization techniques and spectroscopic techniques including, x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy for archaeological and cultural heritage research applications. The book includes contributions from an international pool of researchers and uses case studies to demonstrate applications of techniques. This edition covers a wider range of cultural heritage objects and has a wider scope than the first edition. The research text is intended for early career researchers and those that are new to the field. The chapters begin from a critical review, include recent trends and are intended to connect the audience to possible future research. Part of IOP Series in Spectroscopic Methods and Applications ER -
