New possibilities with aberration-corrected electron microscopy Organized and edited by David Cockayne, Angus I Kirkland, Peter D Nellist and Andrew Bleloch Published September 2009 FREELY AVAILABLE ONLINE UNTIL 30 NOVEMBER 2010 Special offer price: £47.50 (usual price: £58) This volume contains the thirteen invited papers (by Hawkes, Haider, Krivanek, Zach, Pennycook, Urban, Kirkland, Lichte, Dahmen, Rose, Nellist, Colliex and Howie) presented at the Royal Society Discussion Meeting 'New possibilities with aberration-corrected electron microscopy' held in London from 24-25 November 2008. It includes not only reports of recent research in the field, but also papers on the history of the subject, including the developments of aberration correctors, and papers looking to future developments and directions. New possibilities with aberration-corrected electron microscopy will be a key resource for those in the field and for those interested in recent developments in microscopy, and a historical record of the state of high resolution electron microscopy at this time.
