Abstract
The Groningen tandetron-AMS is a fully automated C-14-mass spectrometer with a maximum capacity of 3000 measurements annually. In the first two years of operation we performed 4000 measurements. We routinely perform high precision measurements (<5 parts per thousand for C-14, and 2 parts per thousand for C-13). Here we report on the status and performance of the Groningen machine, improvements made and planned in the near future, and highlight some research projects.
