UO− has so far been the ion of choice for 236U measurement by AMS, but high and stable ionization efficiency for UO− production has been difficult to obtain with some models of Cs+ sputter ion sources. We have experienced considerable difficultie

RATIONALE The measurement of (210) Pb provides an assessment of the risk an individual faces of developing lung cancer as a result of their exposure to radon and radon decay products. Existing radiometric techniques are not sensitive enough to detect

The analysis of 135Cs/Cs ratios at levels below 10−12 by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) would preferably use commonly available negative ion injection systems. The sputter ion sources in these injectors should ideally produce currents of Cs−

The isobar separator for anions (ISA) was used together with a 3 MV tandem accelerator mass spectrometer (AMS) to demonstrate the real time (on-line) separation of Te− from I−. Following the ion source mass spectrometry and major retardation to t

The ratio of anthropogenic 135 Cs and 137 Cs isotopes is characteristic of a uranium fission source. This research evaluates the technique of isotope dilution (yield tracing) for the purpose of quantifying 135 Cs by accelerator mass spectrometry with

The shapes of objects in rocks are sometimes measured through tomographic sections, either ‘physical’ sections or ‘virtual’ X-ray computed tomography. Approximation of these objects as ellipsoids is often sufficient in these analyses. Here we

RATIONALE The ability to measure both 135Cs and 137Cs can provide an estimate of the age and source of Cs isotopes in an environmental sample. Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) consistently reports lower abundance sensitivities than other technique

RATIONALE An experimental Isobar Separator for Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (ISAMS) instrument has been used to demonstrate an on-line separation of HfF5− from its isobar WF5−. This is necessary, in addition to sample preparation chemistry, for

The isotope $^{135}\mathrm{Cs}$ is quoted as having a half-life of 2.3 Myr. However, there are three published values ranging from 1.8 to 3 Myr. This research reviews previous measurements and reports a new measurement of the half-life using newly de
