SUERC-PIMS

Developing the world’s first Positive Ion Mass Spectrometer for radiocarbon analysis.

Thanks @c14env, really enjoyed the opportunity to present on PIMS yesterday. Great to see all the friendly C14 faces again too!

JOB: 2.5-yr Research Associate position for an analytical inorganic chemist to work with @SUERC1 AMS Laboratory on NERC ScotIce project aimed at improving 10Be and 26Al measurement precision https://t.co/34UlmSDhgj…
Feel free to contact us if you have queries about the post.

PhD opportunity for a physics or engineering graduate to work in particle beam physics on the new PIMS systems. Areas of interest are ion optic modelling and application, ion beam matter interaction, particle detectors, ECR ion source development https://t.co/OPQnkrPkx9
@SUERC1

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

Improve the precision of 10Be and 26Al surface exposure dating and quantify how fast ice caps can melt. This is a hands-on project that will challenge you to combine laboratory techniques with operating a 5-million-volt particle accelerator and the newly developed PIMS

[SUERC @SUERC1]

Opportunity to do an @e3dtp PhD with @DerekFabel and @RichardPShanks @SUERC1, and @AndyHein @GeosciencesEd on improving exposure dating precision for Late Glacial landforms with #cosmogenic #nuclides and particle accelerators https://t.co/G7r8BL6aIT

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

3 new PhD opportunities with @SUERC1 @StirUni @IapetusDTP. #3 - “Addressing the global methane crisis with novel technology (PIMS-14C)” https://t.co/dCpthBOA1v
Deadline: 10th Jan 2020.

How 14C revolutionised science! @isotopesUK @SUERC1 @c14pims @PipAscough

@Jacek_Pawlyta @SUERC1 It’s around 1mA, mostly carbon! The total source output is ~3mA but this includes oxygen, higher charge states, etc. that we filter out before this cup.

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

You know you have a powerful particle beam when it burns a hole clean through your Faraday cup! @SUERC1 #highpowerphysics #bigbeams

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

@RichardPShanks Looks like another very good reason to go accelerator free!

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

Just a heads up - if you go through an airport with a military grade RF amplifier they will pull you over for extra security! Don’t worry they will let you on though! @SUERC1

[Dan Condon @DanJCondon]

Derek Fabel telling us everything we need to know about precision of 10Be exposure dating (but we’re afraid to ask) @DerekFabel @isotopesUK @SUERC1 @c14pims

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

Well earned @DerekFabel!

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

Exciting new project by @DerekFabel and @RichardPShanks. Measuring how fast an ice cap can collapse using high precision cosmogenic isotopes. Project involves developing Al26 PIMS too. Know of anyone interested in a post doc?

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

Exciting new PhD opportunity in PIMS! Developing the worlds first Al-PIMS and applying it to glacial geomorphology. https://t.co/GT8bAozud2

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

BBC news recently covered the news PIMS technology at @SUERC1. For those that missed it you can see it now! #c14pims #Radiocarbon @NERCscience @UofGlasgow @PipAscough @RichardPShanks

[SUERC-PIMS @c14pims]

Nice image of the high current carbon beam on the PIMS making the gas glow at the entrance to the reaction cell! #c14pims

[SUERC @SUERC1]

The US patent office has now allowed the PIMS patent application @UofGGES @c14pims #Pantechnik #Radiocarbon @NERCscience

[Marisa Repasch @MarisaExplores]

Super exciting to hear about @c14pims today at #Goldschmidt2018 ! This could revolutionize the way we make radiocarbon measurements!

[Jonathan Nichols @BogFossil]

Exciting talk on @c14pims at #Goldschmidt2018! I can think of a few things I could do with a zillion radiocarbon measurements...
