An accelerator mass spectrometry at Mutsu office, Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA AMS MUTSU) was established in 1997 and the routine operation of radiocarbon measurement was started from 1999. The radiocarbon was measured by 1,053 samples in 2010, and the number of radiocarbon measurements reached 10,342 samples since the routine operation. This AMS has adopted the open door policy for the general users from the fiscal year of 2006 and various researches have been in progress by many users. In this presentation, I introduce the current status of JAEA AMS MUTSU.

Dai-13-Kai AMS Shimpojiumu Hokokusho, p.129 - 132, 2011/01

An accelerator mass spectrometry at Aomori Research and Development Center, JAEA (JAEA-AMS-MUTSU) was established in 1997 and the routine operation of $$^{14}$$C and $$^{129}$$I measurement was started from 1999 and 2003, respectively. This AMS has adopted the open door policy for the general users from the fiscal year of 2006 and various researches have been in progress by many users. In this presentation, we introduce the status of JAEA-AMS-MUTSU. The total number of measurements has increased well for five years after the open door policy excluding in 2008. The reasons for the decrease in 2008 were that we had stopped the operation of AMS for about one and half months because the operation system of AMS was upgraded, and that we could not measure the $$^{14}$$C for several months because the amplifier of detector had broken. We had resolved this trouble and our AMS can measure smoothly both $$^{14}$$C and $$^{129}$$I.

An accelerator mass spectrometry at Aomori Research and Development Center, JAEA (JAEA-AMS-MUTSU) was established in 1997 and the routine operation of $$^{14}$$C and $$^{129}$$I measurement was started from 1999 and 2003, respectively. This AMS has adopted the open door policy for the general users from the fiscal year of 2006 and various researches have been in progress by many users. In this presentation, we introduce the status of JAEA-AMS-MUTSU in the fiscal year of 2009. The $$^{14}$$C and $$^{129}$$I were measured by 480 and 677 samples in the fiscal year of 2009, respectively. The total number of measurements has decreased by 716 samples from that of the fiscal year of 2008. The reasons for this decrease were that we had stopped the operation of AMS for about one and half months because the operation system of AMS was upgraded, and that we could not measure the $$^{14}$$C for several months because the amplifier of detector had broken. We had resolved this trouble and our AMS can measure smoothly both $$^{14}$$C and $$^{129}$$I.

Sophistication $$^{14}$$C measurement at JAEA-AMS-MUTSU; Attempt on a small quantity of sample

Tanaka, Takayuki; Kabuto, Shoji; Kinoshita, Naoki; Yamamoto, Nobuo

JAEA-Conf 2010-001, p.122 - 125, 2010/03

In the investigations on substance dynamics using the molecular weight and chemical fractionation, the utilization of $$^{14}$$C measurement by an accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) have started. As a result of the fractionation, sample contents required for AMS measurement have been downsized. We expect that this trend toward a small quantity of sample will be steadily accelerated in the future. As $$^{14}$$C measurement by AMS established at Mutsu office require about 2 mg of sample content at present, our AMS lags behind the others in the trend. We try to downsize the needed sample content for $$^{14}$$C measurement by our AMS. In this study, we modified the shape of the target-piece in which the sample is packed and which is regularly needed to radiocarbon measurement by our AMS. Moreover, we improved on the apparatus needed to pack the sample. As a result of the improvement, we revealed that it is possible to measure the $$^{14}$$C using our AMS even by the amount of the sample of about 0.5 mg.

KURRI-KR-153, p.29 - 34, 2010/03

An accelerator mass spectrometry at Mutsu office, Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA AMS MUTSU) was established in 1997 and the routine operation of radiocarbon measurement was started from 1999. The radiocarbon was measured by 1,193 samples last year, and the number of radiocarbon measurements reached 8,809 samples since the routine operation. This AMS has adopted the open door policy for the general users from the fiscal year of 2006 and various researches have been in progress by many users. As a operate system of this AMS had been controlled under Windows 3.1 since installation, it was difficult to purchase spare parts which are compatible with Windows 3.1. The operation system was upgraded to Windows XP in this year. In this presentation, I introduce the current status of JAEA AMS MUTSU, upgrading of the operation system and moreover an extraction method for determination of dissolved organic radiocarbon which was developed in this year.

An Inter-laboratory comparison study on $$^{14}$$C measurements between two AMS laboratories of Nagoya University and JAEA Mutsu

Nakamura, Toshio*; Tanaka, Takayuki; Kabuto, Shoji; Ota, Tomoko*

Nagoya Daigaku Kasokuki Shitsuryo Bunsekikei Gyoseki Hokokusho, 21, p.159 - 165, 2010/03

An inter-laboratory comparison of $$^{14}$$C dating studies with AMS were performed between Nagoya University and JAEA. Two kinds of archeological samples used for the intercomparison were offered from the Education Board of Nirasaki city. One part of them was a charred rice sample with known historical age, which was collected from the ruin of Shimpu-Jo castle remains. The rice was charred when the castle was burnt in 1582, when the castle was abandoned by Katsuyori Takeda during the battle against the combined military forces of Oda and Tokugawa families. The other samples were charred pyrenes of peach and nutshells of Japanese walnut collected from the Shukujiri-Daini-Iseki archeological site. The results from the two AMS laboratories were quite consistent within statistical uncertainties. In addition, calibrated $$^{14}$$C ages for the charred rice samples were also consistent with the historical age when the Shimpu-Jo castle was burnt down.
