Accelerator mass spectrometry research. Researcher preparing a gas sample for further analysis in an accelerator mass spectrometer (AMS). This technique accelerates ions to high speeds, and is often used to detect various radioactive isotopes. One application is carbon-14 dating. This sample will be analysed at the Tandetron AMS in Gif-sur-Yvette, Paris, France.
