Guidelines for Preparing Abstracts
The deadline for receipt of abstracts is 21 February 2003
Abstracts are reproduced as submitted in the Book of Abstracts, and will also be published on the Denver
X-ray Conference web site, with links to, or duplicate copies on other affiliated web sites (e.g., ICDD
and/or IXAS). If you do not want your abstract so published, please note your request on the information page
of your abstract submission. Abstracts must not exceed
one page in length and must include the title, author(s), affiliations(s) and the text. To provide uniformity, it is
recommended that abstracts be prepared according to
the following guidelines:
Abstract Format
-
Paper Size: 8.5 x 11 inches; A4 paper must be formatted
for 8.5 x 11 inches
-
Size: Entire abstract, including title,
author(s), affiliation(s), and text, must fit into a maximum area of 15 cm (5.9") wide by 20 cm (7.9") high.
Please allow a top margin of 3.8 cm (1.5") to allow insertion of session codes/information by
conference staff
-
Font: Times or Times New Roman, 12 point
-
Title: bold, centered, all uppercase (except where
lowercase letters are needed for clarity)
-
Leave one blank line between the title and the
author(s)
-
Author(s) and affiliation(s): mixed upper and
lowercase, centered; if there is more than one author, underline the presenting author's name
-
Leave two blank lines before beginning the text
-
Text:
-
text should appear flush left; do not indent
-
use line spacing sufficiently large enough
to allow the abstract to be read easily, including subscripts, superscripts and
Greek letters
-
a blank line is recommended (space permitting)
between paragraphs
Information Page
In addition to the abstract, please submit a separate page with the following information:
-
Permission to post abstract on the DXC web site
and affiliated web sites
-
Speaker's name, mailing address, phone number,
fax number, and e-mail address
-
If the speaker is not the person to whom correspondence
should be sent, please include contact person's name, mailing address, phone number,
fax number, and e-mail address
-
Indicate your preferences:
- oral presentation or poster
- if oral presentation is preferred, suggested session where paper may be best suited
- if poster presentation is preferred, choose the XRD or XRF evening poster
session
-
If your submission is invited, please indicate that
your paper is invited and include the chairperson's name that issued your invitation along with
the session title
-
Indicate whether you intend to publish this paper
in Advances in X-ray Analysis, Volume 47
Abstract Submission
Abstracts may be submitted via the web or by e-mail.
Please note:
-
Special characters, tables, mathematical formulae
and figures should be kept to a minimum
-
If special symbols or Greek letters are used,
please limit the fonts to those that are available with the standard distribution of
Microsoft Word or WordPerfect. Nonstandard fonts may lead to errors in transmission
-
All graphics must be embedded in the Word or
WordPerfect document
Note: Because they do not reproduce well, abstracts submitted by facsimile will not be accepted.
Receipt of abstracts will be confirmed via e-mail. If you do not receive your confirmation
within two weeks of your submission, please
contact:
Denise Flaherty
Conference Coordinator
flaherty@icdd.com
phone 610.325.9814.
Presented Papers
The Organizing Committee considers unprofessional the withdrawal of a paper
(except in special circumstances) after it has been accepted and widely advertised. Non-U.S. authors, in
particular, please try to secure travel funding and approvals before submitting your
abstract(s). Publication of presented papers: In the interest of releasing the conference
proceedings, Advances in X-ray Analysis, as early as possible after the conclusion of the conference, we are encouraging
authors to submit their manuscripts for publication during the conference at the conference registration desk. If
you are unable to bring your manuscript with you at that time, please mail it no later than 8 September 2003
to:
Denise Flaherty
ICDD
12 Campus Boulevard
Newtown Square, PA 19073-3273 U.S.A.
Note: To be acceptable for publication, papers should describe either new
methods, theory and applications, improvements in methods or instrumentation, or other advances in the state of the art. Papers
emphasizing commercial aspects are discouraged. Information for preparing manuscripts will be mailed after abstracts have been
received.
Contributed Papers
Contributed papers are hereby solicited for any of the special sessions
previously listed or the XRD and XRF general sessions. Many of the contributed papers will be placed in poster
sessions, held in conjunction with mixers during the evenings of conference week. Those of more general interest
will be placed in oral sessions.
Jerome B. Cohen Student Award
This award, instituted in the memory of Professor Jerome B. Cohen, one of the
leaders in the field of X-ray analysis and in the training of students in this art, is intended to recognize the
outstanding achievements of student research in this field. All students, graduate or undergraduate, who are working in any
aspect of X-ray analysis, can submit their
work. The research must be original, of high quality and must be primarily the
work of the student. The papers submitted for this competition must be received in electronic form by
1 July 2003 in final publication form. The winner will be selected by a committee of researchers in the field,
announced at the Plenary Session of the conference and listed in the proceedings. The award for the year 2003 will be in the amount
of $1,000. Students interested in participating in this year's competition must submit
their papers and a certification form to dxc@icdd.com by the due date. The certification form can be obtained
here.
