About This Book

Spectroscopy, Diffraction and Tomography in Art and Heritage Science gives an overview of the main spectroscopy and diffraction techniques currently available for cultural heritage research. It starts with an introductory, general discussion of spectroscopy and diffraction and the kinds of information they can give. Further sections deal with, respectively, typical laboratory methods, mobile equipment, and large-scale instruments and infrastructural methods. The work concludes with comments on combining and comparing multiple techniques, sources of error, and limitations of the analytical methods.

  • Explains spectroscopy and diffraction techniques in detail, yet remains accessible to those without a chemistry or physics background
  • Provides explanations of commonly used terms, such as destructive, non-destructive, non-invasive, in-situ, and ex-situ, and their sometimes-misleading origins
  • Includes real-world examples that demonstrate how each technique is used in the field
  • Highlights the complementary use of different analytical techniques in fully interpreting the data
