Abstract

The ANTARES AMS facility at the Lucas Heights Research Laboratories is operational and AMS measurements of 14C and 26Al are performed routinely. Measurement programs for a variety of other long-lived cosmogenic radioisotopes are being implemented on specialised beamlines. The overall aim of the facility is to establish an AMS centre for advanced studies in global change and Quaternary science. Other projects in biomedicine and nuclear safeguards monitoring are also being developed. © 1994 Elsevier B.V.
