SIMS project summary (max 300 words)

If relevant, images of samples, BSE maps, compositional maps (EPMA maps, CL images…) can be send separately to swissims’at’unil.ch

Working hypothesis to be tested

What are the expected SIMS results in the light of these hypothesis (eg, values > than X would mean such process, or range of values > than Y would mean such other process …)

Matrix to be analysed

Please specify which mineral(s) or glass(es) should be analysed If you checked “other” in Requiered analysis, please specify here

Existing reference material

Please specify here if you have in possession reference material(s) for the requiered analysis, or if there are some available at UNIL. Specify the name of the reference(s) material(s)

Analytical requirements (1- type of mounts, 2- # of mounts, 3- spatial resolution, 4- precision needed, 5- total # of analysis)

Please specify here ALL these info: 1- the type of mounts (epoxy vs. indium), 2- numbers of mounts, 3- the needed spatial resolution (in microns), 4- the precision needed for your working hypothesis and 5- the total number of analysis of each types of analysis (i.e., if your proposal include more than one type of analysis, specify the total number of measurements for analysis type 1, then for type 2 and so on)

Project timing

Whe are the samples expected to be ready? Please justify in case of urgent need — (!! Be aware that samples need to be ready before scheduling analysis time at the SwissSIMS. !! Waiting time for SIMS session is usually 2-3 months) —
