Abstract:
A review of measurements with accelerator mass spectrometry is presented. Emphasis is placed on the use of long-lived radioisotopes and the versatility of the method. Although necessarily incomplete, this paper is intended to convey some feeling for the enormous breadth of AMS measurements and its prospects for future research.
