Information about the resources of the laboratory “AMS Golden Valley” and the state of affairs in accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) in Russia is presented. The key differences of the AMS method from traditional methods for determining radiocarbon are described, the principle of operation of accelerator mass spectrometers of Russian (unique scientific facility “AMS BINP SB RAS”) and Swiss (MICADAS-28) production is given, and basic information is given about the methods for preparing graphite targets for AMS-analysis.
