Thermal Ionization Mass Spectrometer (TIMS) Phoenix - ISOTOPX

The IsotopX Phoenix Thermal Ionization Mass Spectrometer (TIMS) is an equipment specially designed for the analysis of isotope ratios. It consists of nine Faraday detectors and a Daly Detector, for static and/or dynamic multi-collection data acquisition. This spectrometer is used to perform isotopic composition analysis in the Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd and common Pb systems in geological, paleontological, archaeological and environmental samples.
