A ps handling system for AMS radiocarbon dating with a CO2 sputter sou
rce has a unique set of requirements. These are discussed both in gene
ral and in relation to the design adopted at the Oxford facility. In a
ddition to the physical ps handling apparatus, the design of the neces
sary electronic and software control systems are also covered.
