Mass spectrometry technique in which atoms and molecules from a sample are ionized, accelerated to mega-electron volt ( ) energies, and separated according to their momentum, charge, and energy, allowing high discrimination for the measurement of nuclide abundances.
Note:
AMS is typically used for (but not limited to) the measurement of radionuclides with long half-lives, such as , , , , , and .
