Strontium-90 in the environment

Strontium is a naturally occurring element that accumulates in bones, with its radioactive isotope Sr-90 posing environmental concerns due its presence in nature.

Radioimpurities in particle detectors for dark matter studies

This experiment will characterise dark matter detector material. Lowest levels of natural radioactivity in high purity samples will be analysed via ultra-senstive single atom counting using acclerator mass spectrometry.
