iolite has always supported time-resolved data processing from a variety of instruments, including TIMS and solution ICP-MS. Its implementation of the double-spike inversion, which is an approach that calculates mass bias, mixture proportions, etc, sets it apart from most solution mass spectrometry software.

iolite Essentials has just been released, and represents a great new tool for labs with fewer processing requirements. iolite v4 remains our flagship application, and will continue to lead the way in time-resolved data processing.

iolite v4.10.0 has just been released! Below is a quick summary of changes, but in particular, these new features may be of interest. Big speed improvements for LIBS datasets Joe has spent quite a bit of time with the AV2 team coming up with an improved LIBS dataset format.

iolite v4.9.0 has just been released! It has been a little while since we put out a release so there are quite a few new features and bug fixes included.

The main error propagation algorithm in iolite was first published by Paton et al. (2010). Its purpose is to estimate the additional uncertainty to be added to the internal uncertainty calculated by iolite and is most often used in U-Pb studies.
