Abstract
This article is a brief summary of ISO Standard 20903. This standard provides information on methods for the measurement of peak intensities in Auger electron and X-ray photoelectron spectra and on uncertainties of derived peak area. It also specifies the necessary information required in a report of analytical results based on such measurements.
