Extending IBA Analysis: Work Package 3 Extending IBA Analysis: Conclusive Summary of behalf of the WP-3 collaboration

Integral objective To foster early stage careers of young researchers by exposing them to excellent and innovative science projects and advanced training

Extending IBA Analysis IAEA ION BEAM TECHNOLOGY ROADMAP Science in WP3 Extending IBA Analysis topics agree with strategically relvant issues defined by the IAEA ION BEAM TECHNOLOGY ROADMAP

State-of-the-art PIXE and Electronics Developments 1. High-Speed PIXE (i.e. fast, spatially resolved PIXE)  IBA imaging capabilities 2. High-Energy Resolution PIXE (i.e. PIXE with < 10 eV resolution)  Chem. bonding information 3. Digital Signal Processing (i.e. improved electronics)  Basis for state-of-the-art IBA Ion Scattering (RBS, ERDA) Primary MeV ion Sputtering (SIMS) Electrons (SE, AE) Nuclear reactions (p, d, g, ..) X-rays (PIXE) Ion Beam Analysis WP3 4
