Fossilized microorganisms (microfossils) preserved within Precambrian sedimentary rocks represent a vital source of evidence for early life on Earth, and studies of such microfossils and the organic matter (kerogen) of which they are typically composed have helped guide the mode…
This volume is devoted to the physics, instrumentation and analytical methods of secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) in relation to solid surfaces. It describes modern models of secondary ion formation and the factors influencing sensitivity of measurements and the range of a…
