Since its discovery in 1958,
the Mössbauer effect, recoilless nuclear resonance fluorescence of gamma rays,
has become a powerful tool in solid-state physics and materials sciences
research. Mössbauer spectroscopy based on this nuclear resonance effect is a high-resolution
technique used for local characterization of materials with applications to a
variety of fields. Up to now, more than 60,000 papers were published worldwide using
the Mössbauer technique. Since 1960, many conferences, meetings, workshops,
seminars, and symposia on fundamental - as well as industrial - applications of
Mössbauer spectroscopy have been held worldwide.
Latin American Conference on
the Applications of the Mössbauer Effect (LACAME) is a series of scientific
meetings held every two years in a Latin American country. By initiative of the
Mössbauer community in Brazil, the first LACAME was held in Brazil (Rio de
Janeiro, 1988). After
Brazil, others countries that have successfully organized the LACAME were: Cuba
(Havana, 1990), Argentina (Buenos Aires, 1992), Chile (Santiago, 1994), Peru
(Cusco, 1996), Colombia (Cartagena de Indias, 1998), Venezuela (Caracas, 2000),
Panama (Panama City, 2002), Mexico (Mexico City, 2004), Brazil (Rio de Janeiro,
2006), Argentina (La Plata, 2008), Peru (Lima, 2010), Colombia (Medellin,
2012), Mexico (Toluca, 2014), Panama (Panama City, 2016), Chile (Santiago,
2018) and Brazil (Vitória, 2022). LACAME’20 was cancelled due to
the Covid19 pandemic. Since the first conference, the biennial LACAME have
aimed to promote knowledge and scientific exchange between research groups and science
relevant to the needs of Latin American countries.
Despite the limitations, the
biennial LACAME have allowed the integration of this Latin American scientific
community. However, we look forward to further strengthening these
relationships through future new collaborations.
The XVIII Latin American
Conference on the Applications of the Mössbauer Effect, LACAME 2024, will be hosted
by the Physics Sciences Faculty of the Major National University of San Marcos
at Lima, Peru, from October 14 to 18, 2024.
You are invited to participate in LACAME 2024.
