Popis:	The radiocarbon AMS facility at Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar is based on a 3 MV tandem accelerator. In this paper, we present the recent improvements to the AMS system at this general purpose accelerator facility. We report an effective method of overcoming terminal voltage instability often met with in switching between AMS and other modes of operation of the accelerator. We report the radiocarbon measurements made on connate groundwater samples from the Bhadrak district of Orissa state (eastern India) to identify the regions that require artificial recharge.
