  1. 1. Exploring the Possibilities of 14C Bomb-Pulse Dating of Human Tissue Samples

    Author : Elisavet Georgiadou; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 14C measurements; Bomb-pulse dating; human body; serum; plaque; Fysicumarkivet A:2014:Georgiadou;

    Abstract : The testing of nuclear weapons in the atmosphere, in the middle of the 20'h century, resulted in a bomb-pulse excess of atmospheric 14C. A bomb-pulse dating method was thus developed. The latter is a method to determine the time of formation of formerly living modern (i.e. READ MORE

  2. 2. Exploring the limitations of 14C bomb-pulse dating on human tissue samples

    Author : Elisavet Georgiadou; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bomb-pulse dating; human tissues; stable isotope analysis;

    Abstract : The aim of this work, which will be part of the PhD work of the author of this report, was to evaluate the precision and accuracy expected from bomb-pulse dating of human tissue, focusing on the uncertainties introduced by variation in 14C in the human diet. Such variations may be caused by releases from nuclear installations, hospitals and laboratories using 14C, use of fossil fuels as well as variations in the type of diet consumed (e. READ MORE
