Mass spectrometry technique in which atoms and molecules from a sample are ionized, accelerated to mega-electron volt (\(\pu{1 MeV} = \pu{1.602176634E-13 J}\)) energies, and separated according to their momentum, charge, and energy, allowing high discrimination for the measurement of nuclide abundances.
Note:
AMS is typically used for (but not limited to) the measurement of radionuclides with long half-lives, such as \(\ce{^{10}Be}\), \(\ce{^{14}C}\), \(\ce{^{26}Al}\), \(\ce{^{36}Cl}\), \(\ce{^{53}Mn}\), and \(\ce{^{129}I}\).
