Photon Burst Mass Spectrometry is a relatively new and untried method which may complement and extend the impressive achievements of Resonance Ionization Mass Spectrometry and Accelerator Mass Spectrometry in the field of large dynamic range isotope ...
A number of problems in the accelerator-based spectrometry of mass-21 methane are being studied. If the technique results in improved sensitivity over that of conventional spectrometry then smaller amounts of mass-21 methane can be used in the atmospheric...
The characteristic features of accelerator mass spectrometry are discussed. A short overview is given of the current status of mass spectrometry with high-energy (MeV/nucleon) heavy-ion accelerators. Emphasis is placed on studies with tandem ...
