This book serves as a practical guide for the application of XRF spectrometry to the study and understanding of archaeology. Early chapters serve as both an introduction to XRF theory and instrumentation as well as an introduction to field applications and practical aspects of archaeology and conservation. These early chapter thus provide those new to XRF and/or new to field archaeology a solid foundation on which to base further study.

The ultimate success for placed implants in both dental and medical practice relies on the early stage of osteo-integration (fusing and integrating of placed non-vital implant surface to receiving vital hard tissue - bone structure). This new book explains the three basic requirements for implant success from a surface engineering perspective:

X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) is a well-established analytical technique for qualitative and quantitative elemental analysis of a wide variety of routine quality control and research samples. Among its many desirable features, it delivers true multi-element character analysis, acceptable speed and economy, easy of automation, and the capacity to analyze solid samples.
