HVE has tested the performance of its first compact 1 MV AMS system. The system is primarily designed for the measurement of 14 C, 10 Be and 26 Al, but additionally supports the measurement of heavy ions like iodine and plutonium. The tests confirmed the flexibility of a system that results from its
Routine bioassay monitoring of Pu intake in exposed workers of research and nuclear industry is usually performed by alpha spectrometry. This technique involves large sample volumes of urine and time-consuming preparative and counting protocols. Compact accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) facilities
In this work we present the most recent improvements performed by our group on 10 Be measurements on the 1 MV AMS system recently set up at the CNA (Centro Nacional de Aceleradores), in Seville (Spain). Our efforts have been focused on the study of the viability of our system for BeO and BeF À measu
