The Groningen AMS facility

The Groningen AMS facility has been in operation since 1994. The AMS is based on a 2.5 MV tandetron accelerator. It is a fully automated mass spectrometer, dedicated to C-14 analysis with high precision (</p

THE NEW GRONINGEN C-14 DATA-BASE

The Groningen Radiocarbon Data base has been operating on an Apple IIe PC until recently. Both software and hardware of this data base made exchange with other systems very difficult. Therefore, the data base has been transferred to an IBM AT compatible computer. A new program has been written in Turbo-Pascal, using the Turbo-Pascal Database Toolbox. The program features versatile search routines. The output can be directed to various date-list formats, such as the International Radiocarbon Data Base (IRDB). The program is written in such a way that new date lists can be added with minor adjustments to the source code
