Description

Improvements made at the Zuerich AMS-facility in the detecting technique of heavier cosmogenic radioisotopes are described. It is possible to perform now 36Cl measurements of natural samples with isotope ratios of greater than 10-14. The reproducibility of 36Cl measurements with a beam energy of 48 MeV is discussed. In the case of 32Si successful efforts were made to determine absolute isotope ratios of artificially enriched silicon samples. (orig.)
