Abstract

ABSTRACT: Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) activities at the Inter-University Accelerator Centre (IUAC) in New Delhi, India, started with its 15UD Pelletron accelerator and cosmogenic radionuclide (CRN) measurements of 10 Be and 26 Al. Realizing the demand of a radiocarbon ( 14 C) AMS facility in India, a 500kV Pelletron accelerator based AMS system was installed in 2015. This facility was designated with the lab code IUACD for 14 C measurements. 14 C dates measured in 2015 and 2016 were published in the first radiocarbon date list (see text for details). The present list is the second 14 C date list and consists of dates measured from January to December 2017.
