Elsevier/Spectrochimica Acta Atomic Spectroscopy Award 1993 This is to announce the 1993 Elsevier/Spectrochimica Acta Award, the annual award honouring the most significant article(s) published in a volume. Elsevier makes this award on behalf of Spectrochimica Acta Part B, to encourage the publication of top articles in this journal. All papers published during one year are considered for this award and the Editorial Advisory Board and the Spectrochimica Acta Electronica Editorial Team are responsible for the selection. The award consists of a monetary prize of US $1000 together with a presentation certificate. With our apoligies to the authors and the readers for the considerable delay in the appearance of this editorial, we have the pleasure to announce the 1993 Award, for the articles published in Spectrochimica Acta Part B, Volume 48. The jury has chosen the following paper: J.C. Travis, M.R. Winchester, M.L. Salit, B.J. Wythoff and A. Scheeline, UV/visible Fourier transform spectroscopy using an inductively coupled plasma: dual channel noise cancellation, p. 691. Two papers followed very closely behind the winner: P.J. Galley and G.M. Hieftje, Tomographically resolved ionization temperatures and electron densities in the inductively coupled plasma determined by the line-to-continuum method, p. E1725. S.E. Hobbs and J.W. Olesik, The effect of desolving droplets and vaporizing particles on ionization and excitation in Ar inductively coupled plasmas, p. 817 There were a number of other papers that scored high on the jury's list. For the 1993 volume, this list, in alphabetical order of the first author, is as follows: W. Frech and B.V. L'vov, Matrix vapours and physical interference effects in graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry--II. Side-heated tubes, p. 1371. J. Kawai, K. Nakajima and Y. Gohshi, Copper Ll3/Let X-ray emission intensity ratio of copper compounds and alloys, p. 1281. F.R. Meeks, Electron number density in a slightly ionized gas (argon inductively coupled plasma), p. 1537. B. Welz and P. Stauss, Interferences from hydride-forming elements on selenium in hydridegeneration atomic absorption spectrometry with a heated quartz tube atomizer, p. 951. A set of two companion papers: Jinfu Yang, Zhexiu Piao and Xianjin Zeng, Wavelength positioning errors and true detection limit in relation to multicomponent analysis techniques for the correction of line interferences in inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, p. 359.
