With standard single quadrupole GC/LC-MS, accurate detection of isotopic abundance is limited to ∼0.1 atom percent excess – equivalent to having 0.1% more heavy isotope than normal in the system.

The 20-kilowatt SLOWPOKE-2 research reactor at the International Centre for Environmental and Nuclear Sciences (ICENS) at The ...

NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission returned samples from asteroid Bennu, which showed discoveries about life and the early solar ...
