    The ANTARES AMS Centre : a status report
    (Cambridge University Press, 2016-07-18) Tuniz, C; Fink, D; Hotchkis, MAC; Jacobsen, GE; Lawson, EM; Smith, AM; Hua, Q; Drewer, P; Lee, P; Levchenko, VA; Bird, R; Boldeman, JW; Barbetti, M; Taylor, G; Head, J
    The ANTARES accelerator mass spectrometry facility at Lucas Heights Research Laboratory is operational and AMS measurements of 14C, 26Al and 36Cl are being carried out routinely. Measurement of 129I recently commenced and capabilities for other long-lived radioisotopes such as 10Be are being established. The overall aim of the facility is to develop advanced programs in Quaternary science, global climate change, biomedicine and nuclear safeguards. © the Department of Geosciences, The University of Arizona

    Ion beam analysis of 3 DRUM aerosol sampler strips
    (Australian Institute of Nuclear Science and Engineering (AINSE), 2009-11-25) Stelcer, E; Atanacio, AJ; Cohen, DD; Siegele, R; Garton, D; Drewer, P; Cahill, TA
    Since 1991 ANSTO’s IBA laboratory has been sampling fine atmospheric particles every Wednesday and Sunday at urban and rural sites around Australia and internationally. Multi-elemental accelerator-based ion beam analysis (IBA) techniques were used to characterise major components and significant trace elements with minimum detectable limits close to and below 1 ng/m3 . Recently we have started testing a 3-DRUM sampling unit kindly obtained from the University of California, Davies (UCD) USA as a potential addition to our conventional aerosol sampling units.
