In September, we published a proceeding from the Radiocarbon conference , discussing the integration of an Elemental Analyzer (EA), an Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer (IRMS), a Gas Injection System (GIS), and our AMS accelerator. This setup is under development by our Ph.D. student Martina Gwozdz, who also is the lead author of this paper. The setup allows us to oxidize small carbon samples with masses ranging from 10 µg to 100 µg and perform online analysis of the samples carbon content, δ13C, and 14C/12C ratios. The system offers an advancement at CologneAMS in measuring various radiocarbon dating samples for which only little sample material is available. The article can be found here.
