Here you can download the program

Some of our members presentations:

Session 1: Laser Treatments of Metal Artefacts
Ruth Lahoz – Innovative procedure for assessing laser interaction mechanisms on copper alloys and its validation on archaeological corrosion products

Poster Pitch 3: Inmaculada Donate – Advances in Photonic Diagnostics

Session 4: Advances in Compositional Photonic Diagnostics
Paula Carmona – Development of new SERS sensors based on the laser irradiation of the major hydration product of Portland cement

Session 5: Advances in Imaging Diagnostics
Mohamed Oujja – In-depth structural and compositional assessments of aged terpenoid varnish layer

About LACONA:

LACONA “Lasers in the Conservation of Artworks” is the International Conference on advances in photonic techniques for diagnostics and conservation-restoration of cultural heritage.Since 1995, LACONA has gathered together researchers, conservators, and restorers from public institutions and private enterprises for discussing about novel approaches in non-invasive material characterization, conservation treatments, and monitoring based on photon sources and sensors.

The topics of the Conference focus on innovation in dedicated spectroscopic, imaging, and laser treatment systems and on their optimized application over the whole range of the conservation themes of tangible heritage.

LACONA XIII aims at strengthening and enriching the tradition of the Conference by encouraging the submission of contributions on the most advanced photonic tools and methods, their rigorous validation, and exemplary applications in safeguarding cultural heritage.

They plan to share manuscripts that will be submitted for publication after LACONA XIII in two independent issues but some interesting resources from previous editions can already be found here.
