Biographical / Historical Note
Ashutosh Kumar Shukla obtained his BSc, MSc and D Phil from the University of Allahabad. He is an Associate Professor of Physics and currently heads the Physics department at Ewing Christian College, Allahabad, a University of Allahabad institution. In addition to articles and review articles published in peer-reviewed journals, he has authored textbooks and participated as an editor in many edited volumes published by reputed publishers. These edited volumes have been often prepared in collaboration with experts from different countries. He intends to continue pursuing his academic interests, which include spectroscopy applications in different fields of societal importance.
Summary
The use of spectroscopic techniques in the analysis and dating of archaeological and cultural artefacts is now well established. Whether they are used for dating or compositional analysis, the data they produce is invaluable for archaeologists, curators and conservation scientists. This second edition addresses present microscopic characterization techniques and spectroscopic techniques including, x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy for archaeological and cultural heritage research applications. The book includes contributions from an international pool of researchers and uses case studies to demonstrate applications of techniques. This edition covers a wider range of cultural heritage objects and has a wider scope than the first edition. The research text is intended for early career researchers and those that are new to the field. The chapters begin from a critical review, include recent trends and are intended to connect the audience to possible future research. Part of IOP Series in Spectroscopic Methods and Applications.
