Our laboratory serves
primarily the academic research community.
However, our state- and
federally-funded facility is available to others,
too.
We conduct primarily
thermal ionization mass spectrometric analyses
of natural materials and have a radioactive isotope counting facility
(alpha particles only).
We are seeking funding
for a multi-collector ICP-MS from the National Sciences Foundation
Our laboratory routinely conducts the following
types of analyses.
- Nd isotopic analyses
- Pb isotopic analyses
- Ra isotopic analyses
- Sr isotopic analyses
|
- Th isotopic analyses
- U isotopic analyses
- Ra isotopic analyses
- isotope dilution for: Ba, Nd, Pb, Ra, Th,
U, Rb, Sm, Sr, Po, Ca
|
Our laboratory has experience with the
following types of samples.
|
- volcanic rocks
- mineral separates
- submarine volcanic glass
- sulfides
|
- corals
- otoliths
- fresh and saline waters
- wood
