The major element composition of the insoluble, windborne long‐range dust archived in European Project for Ice Coring Antarctica Dome C ice core has been determined by Particle Induced X‐ray Emission analyses. geochemistry from last glacial maximum (LGM) and Holocene is discussed terms past environmental changes, throughout climatic cycle. Antarctic interglacial climate clearly reveals different geochemical compositions. weathered crustal‐like signature LGM characterized a low compositional...
This paper is an overview of the work developed by our group in investigations museum objects and alluvial gold, reflected a series studies published between 2000–2011, supplemented with new results, unpublished up-to-date. The X-ray based spectrometric techniques employed range from various X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) to ion beam analysis, including synchrotron radiation XRF micro-Particle Induced Emission. gold discussed are mainly part Sarmizegetusa Dacian hoards—spiraled bracelets...
The micro-PIXE method is an excellent tool to determine the provenance of ancient gold and bronze artifacts by comparing their elemental composition (especially trace elements) with geological native copper samples. results on some Dacian staters "Kosons" Bronze Age (mainly sickles axes) from Southern part Romania are discussed.
Archaeometric investigations using OM (optical microscopy) and micro-PIXE (particle induced X-ray emission) were performed on 45 ceramic shards unearthed in archaeological excavations at Păcuiul lui Soare (southeastern Romania) dated to the eleventh century AD. This study aimed get clues about raw materials manufacturing techniques used by potters from Lower Danube area during Byzantine period. The analyzed fragments selected according stylistic criteria, trying cover entire palette of...
