Abstract
The ANTARES AMS facility at the Lucas Heights Research Laboratories is operational and AMS measurements of C-14 and Al-26 are performed rout inely. Measurement programs for a variety of other long-lived cosmogen ic radioisotopes are being implemented on specialised beamlines. The o verall aim of the facility is to establish an AMS centre for advanced studies in global change and Quaternary science. Other projects in bio medicine and nuclear safeguards monitoring are also being developed.
