From GISR 2012: present status and future perspectives of Raman researches in Italy

Abstract

spite of the dramatic earthquake occurred in the vicinity of Bologna some days before the conference, a substantial group of researchers coming from different regions of Italy and some from abroad gathered in this site to discuss and share their scientific experiences in the field of Raman spectroscopy and nonlinear optical effects. Three plenary talks were given, each at the opening of each day, followed by oral (27) and poster (38) contributions discussed in two dedicated sessions. A committee awarded a prize to four of them, selected from young researchers. Some of the most significant works are collected in this issue of the Journal of Raman Spectroscopy.
