    SHRIMP Workshop in NIPR (27 Sep.-1 Oct., 2014)

A workshop (title: Geochronological applications with a Sensitive High Resolution Ion Microprobe (SHRIMP)) will be held in NIPR SHRIMP Laboratory (Tachikawa, Tokyo) from Saturday 25th June 09:50 to Sunday 26th June 12:30. The workshop participants can move from NIPR to Yokohama by chartered bus before Goldschmidt 2016 main conference in Yokohama.

Topics on basic method of U-Pb zircon analysis, new developments and applications with a SHRIMP will be discussed. Technical demonstration of SHRIMP analysis using a NIPR facility is also included in this workshop. If you are interested in U-Pb zircon geochronology or SHRIMP (SIMS) analysis, we will hope you participate. If you would like to participate, please contact organizer.
