Description

There are many applications of 14C dating and other measurements using accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). In particular, applications to dating of archaeological samples and interesting artifacts are discussed. Other applications, such as to extraterrestrial materials such as lunar samples and meteorites show the broad range of topics that can be addressed with 14C studies.
