Description:
The following radiocarbon dates are a partial list of samples measured since March 1977. The techniques used are the same as reported in R, v 16, p 402-408, and modified in R, v 18, p 210-220, with the following exception. A third liquid scintillation counter (Beckman LS-100) has been added and the shortened, low-K glass-counting vials have been replaced with teflon vials of Noakes (1975) design. Backgrounds on the counters were thus reduced from 9.1 cpm, 8.8 cpm and 4.9 cpm to 3.8 cpm, 3.5 cpm and 2.8 cpm, respectively, with an attendant small increase in efficiency.
