A new facility for accelerator mass spectrometry has been established at Purdue University. First results have been obtained for 10Be and 36C1, and several internal research projects have been initiated. Plans are to become a national AMS facility to serve the Earth and planetary science communities for the full range of cosmogenic radionuclides.
