Abstract: | Some long-lived nuclides, such as 36Cl, 41Ca, 53Mn, 79Se, etc., are very interested in life science, environment science, geo- and cosmo-sciences, nuclear wastes management, and other fields. Taking the advantages in high sensitivity and the strong ability to reduce the interferences from molecular ions and isobars, AMS has been one of the most promising methods for the measurement of these nuclides. However, the sensitivity of AMS is often unsatisfactory due to the interferences of stable isobars especially for medium and heavy radioisotopes. Gas-filled time of flight (GF-TOF), Gas-filled Magnet with a time of flight (GFM-TOF), Bragg Curve detector and energy loss (ΔE) combined with a Q3D magnetic spectrometer (ΔE-Q3D) are among the techniques used or being developed in AMS lab of China Institute of Atomic Energy, in an attempt to further reduce the interferences from isobars. These techniques will be tested in our AMS measurement of 53Mn, 79Se, 93Zr, 99Tc, etc., for identifying isobaric interferences. |
