Behind and Beyond Luminescence Imaging, October 2024, Vol. 20, No. 5
$20.00
Luminescence-based optical or SEM images are increasingly used in Earth sciences research. Examples include formation and post-growth history of minerals from their internal textures, taking into account multiple interior regions of complex crystals. For such simple approaches it is actually unnecessary to understand the particular causes of emissions.

Luminescence-based optical or SEM images are increasingly used in Earth sciences research. Examples include formation and post-growth history of minerals from their internal textures, taking into account multiple interior regions of complex crystals. For such simple approaches it is actually unnecessary to understand the particular causes of emissions. During the last decade, however, spectroscopic research has led to substantial progress in our understanding of the emissions of minerals. The main objective of this issue is to convince readers that luminescence is not at all restricted to interesting pictures that show “something,” but analysis of the emissions may bear a wealth of information on what exactly is observed. Luminescence spectroscopy has become a versatile, quantitative group of techniques whose successful applications virtually cover all geoscientific sub-disciplines.

Glasses And Melts: Linking Geochemistry And Materials Science, October 2006, Vol. 2, No. 5
$20.00Geological interest in studying melts stems from early recognition that melts play a fundamental role in determining the physical and chemical behaviour of magmas and magmatic processes. However, due to the inherent difficulties associated with working at high temperatures, much of the geological research over the last 30 years has used quenched melts or glasses as proxies for melts themselves.
