    AMS at ANTARES – the first 10 years
    (Elsevier, 2000-10) Lawson, EM; Elliott, G; Fallon, J; Fink, D; Hotchkis, MAC; Hua, Q; Jacobsen, GE; Lee, P; Smith, AM; Tuniz, C; Zoppi, U
    The status and capabilities of the ANTARES AMS facility after 10 years are reviewed. The common AMS radioisotopes, 10Be, 14C, 26A1, 36C1 and 129I, are routinely analysed. A capability for the detection of 236U and other actinide isotopes has been developed. The measurement program includes support to Quaternary science projects at Australian universities and to ANSTO projects in global climate change and nuclear safeguards. © 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

    Equipment and methodology for high precision, high throughput 14C AMS analyses at ANTARES
    (Elsevier, 1994-06-03) Smith, AM; Fink, D; Hotchkis, MAC; Jacobsen, GE; Lawson, EM; Shying, ME; Tuniz, C; Watt, GC; Fallon, J; Ellis, PJ
    The original Rutgers FN tandem accelerator has been modified for high-precision high-throughput AMS analyses at the ANTARES AMS Center. The status of this work and future plans are discussed, with emphasis on 14C. Isotopic ratios are measured at ANTARES by sequentially injecting stable isotopes and the radioisotope, and the systems developed for this purpose are described. Progress with a new injection platform and high intensity, multi-sample ion source is also given. © 1994 Elsevier B.V.
