Abstract:


Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) revolutionized the measurement of
longer-lived radionuclides in the late 1970’s, when it was recognized that
the combination of a mass spectrometer with an electrostatic accelerator
allowed measurement of isotopic ratios as low as 10 -15 , with two papers
published in Science (1977). Although initial studies focused mainly on
radiocarbon ( 14 C) dating, many other radionuclide studies have also been
undertaken, including a wide variety of applications from archaeology, famous
art works, astrophysics, geosciences and ice-core studies to oceanography. I
will highlight some examples of these applications.

Technical developments over the last 47 years have reduced the physical size
of the accelerator systems, especially for radiocarbon studies, from the
large tandem accelerators used in the initial studies operating at 6 MV or
higher, to smaller machines operating at as little as 50 kV. This also
highlights the capabilities at ATOMKI, which currently hosts three varieties
of these smaller AMS designs.
