SHRIMP Lab News and Notices
(updated 2/10/12)


Congratulations to Joe Wooden and to our SHRIMP external users Desmond Moser and John Bowman for the 2012 Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences Best Paper Award for their paper "New zircon shock phenomena and their use for dating and reconstruction of large impact structures revealed by electron nanobeam (EBSD, CL, EDS) and isotopic U--Pb and (U--Th)/He analysis of the Vredefort dome". The CJES Best paper Award is an annual award given jointly by the NRC Research Press and the Geological Association of Canada. Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 48: 117-139

After careful consideration, Joe Wooden has decided to greatly decrease his time in the Stanford–USGS SHRIMP lab, minimize those cross-country commutes, and spend most of his time at home with his family, starting in 2012.

The SHRIMP Lab welcomes Matt Coble as the new Stanford staff scientist who will assist Stanford and external SHRIMP users.

We remain committed to making SHRIMP-RG available to the scientific community and seek projects that require spatially resolved measurements and benefit from SHRIMP-RG's unique combination of high secondary transmission and high mass resolving power. Questions from non-USGS scientists regarding time on the SHRIMP-RG in 2012 and beyond should be addressed to Matt Coble coblem@stanford.edu.

SHRIMP Lab old news and notices

SHRIMP RG
Sensitive High Resolution Ion Micro Probe Reverse Geometry

The SHRIMP RG is at Stanford University as a result of a partnership between the U.S. Geological Survey and Stanford University School of Earth Sciences. The laboratory is run for the mutual benefit of the two parties with cost and analytical time being shared. The laboratory is also available to outside visitors on a cost recovery basis as time allows.
