Abstract
The paper covers the principles of the accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS), development and history of AMS method, peculiarities of sample preparation and AMS application for dating of samples using radioisotope 14С, in the investigation of various environmental objects as well as medical and biological investigations with radioisotopes ap plication. The comparison of AMS with other analytical techniques is made.
Keywords14С isotope, accelerator mass spectrometry, dating, ecology, environment, medicine
