19th Czech - Slovak Spectroscopic Conference (CSSC) & Mössbauer Spectroscopy in Material Science (MSMS)
The 19th Czech - Slovak Spectroscopis Conference (19th CSSC) is a proceeding based on a long-term scientific cooperation between Ioannes Marcus Marci Spectroscopic Society and The Slovak Spectroscopic Society. The meetings organized by the former Czechoslovak spectroscopic society (1949 – 1993) in the past and the continuation in this tradition in the form national Slovak and Czech spectroscopic conferences now, since 2008, exist as a joint event.
The Czech spectroscopic conference was repeated every four years, while the Slovak spectroscopic conference took place biannually. Joint scientific meetings are now held every two years, alternating between the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The order may change if this conference is combined with the European Symposium on Analytical Spectrometry (ESAS). To maintain the tradition of the original separate national conferences, the conferences held in the Czech Republic retain their original serial numbering, and the same applies to the conferences held in Slovakia.

Excursion (Wednesday, September 16)
- A guided tour through the historical Olomouc
- Olomouc, often referred to as the city with the second-largest historical reserve in the Czech Republic (after Prague), which includes the Holy Trinity Column, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is definitely worth visiting. Our professional guides will show you the city's highlights and tell you about the history of the second-oldest university in Czechia. In registration form you can choose guide in Czech or in English.
- ZOO Olomouc
- Zoo Olomouc (Svatý Kopeček, the Holy Hill) is located near Olomouc, Czech Republic, housing over 1,700 animals across 350 species, including unique safari-style exhibits and a 32-meter viewing tower. You will need to get there by public transport. An enthusiastic zoologist will welcome us and guide us through the public and backstage parts of the Zoo, founded in 1952.
- Rope centre
- If you are up for sports activities during the week full of lectures and scientific discussions, you can enjoy a program in Rope centre Proud called EXPERIENCE, suitable for groups who just want to climb rope obstacles, have fun, and relax from work stress. For those who are afraid of heights, we will find another way to enjoy themselves. You will need to use public transport to reach the rope center.
Conference dinner at Fort Science (Thursday, September 17)
The interactive Science centre of Palacky University (Fort Science) will host all conference participants for a conference dinner on Thursday evening. Not only will food and drinks be served, but you will also have a chance to visit the exhibitions of the Fort Science and feed your brain with new knowledge.
