What Does AMS Stand For?
AMS stands for Atomic Mass Spectrometry
Atomic Mass Spectrometry (AMS) is an analytical technique used to measure the mass-to-charge ratio of ions. It is employed to determine the isotopic composition and concentrations of elements in various samples, providing critical insights in fields such as geochemistry, nuclear physics, and environmental studies. AMS offers high sensitivity and precision, allowing for the detection of trace elements and the analysis of complex mixtures. This method is particularly valuable for radiocarbon dating and the study of rare isotopes.
