Accelerator Radiocarbon Dating at SFU
Open accessAbstract
The Simon Fraser University accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) facility has now been in semi-routine use since the beginning of 1985. The advantages and limitations for 14 C dating are described.

In the authors' AMS system, the total detection efficiency is approximately 1%, inclusive of all steps from isolating carbon as CO2 to detection of accelerated 14C ions.
“In our system, the total detection efficiency is ca 1%, inclusive of all steps from isolating the carbon as CO2 to the detection of the accelerated ¹4Ć ions (Nelson et al, 1986).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
