DETERMINATION OF 14C IN VOLCANIC GAS BY ACCELERATOR MASS SPECTROMETRY

Radioactive nuclides such as radiocarbon can be good tracers for investigating the circulation of underground carbon and water. Volcanic gas can be sampled reliably for 14C analysis and prepared for analysis by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). In this paper, we establish a method for the measure...
