Heavy Ion Elastic Recoil Detection analyses (HIERDA) – A ToF system is under construction to profile light ions using either Cl or I beams.
IAEA Consultant Meeting, Wien 1-2 March 2010
Two beamlines for AMS:
A) for 14C dating: 2 off-center Faraday cups for parallel current measurement
of 12C3+ and 13C3+, while the 14C3+ detection is by means of an electrostatic
analyzer and a gas proportional counter.
B) Heavy ion ("AUSTRALIS") beamline with HICONEX Cs microbeam (30-300 mm) multielement ("AUSTRALIS") negative ion source. The magnet is able of analyzing 6+ (or higher charge state) ions of all elements up to U at 2.5 MV terminal voltage.Sequential analysis of different isotopes (around +-3% of center mass) in the magnet is possible by means of the "fast bouncing" technique.
