Summary, in English

Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) is a world-wide spread technique and nearly 50 AMS laboratories exist today. The most widely spread application of AMS is for radiocarbon dating and an estimated total of nearly 100000 <sup>14</sup>C samples are measured per year. Other isotopes used are <sup>10</sup>Be, <sup>26</sup>Al, <sup>36</sup>Cl, <sup>41</sup>Ca, <sup>129</sup>I. The number of these measured per year is estimated to be 10% of the number of <sup>14</sup>C samples or even less
