JEOL EDS vs. Bruker EDS

[DirkMueller]

Hi!

I am on my way writing a funding proposal for a new EPMA - which will be a JEOL.

After a short discussion with John about the option of having two EDS systems, I would like to bring up this topic here.

Is it worth to have a JEOL and a Bruker EDS simultaneously - from a technical point of view, not a financial one? What are the pros and cons?

Thanks
Dirk
