About the course

Purdue's Department of Physics and Astronomy is a recognized world leader in many areas of theoretical and experimental research. Forefront research in physics, cutting across several disciplines are being carried out by high quality, motivated graduate students and world renowned, dedicated faculty in the department. Our goal has been and remains to attract the very best.

　　The Purdue Rare Isotope Measurement Laboratory (PRIME Lab) is a dedicated research and user facility for accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). AMS is an ultra-sensitive analytical technique for measuring long-lived radionuclides. Our mission is to provide measurements of long-lived radionuclides for researchers at Purdue University, at other universities, at national laboratories, and at agencies providing measurements of environmental levels of long-lived radionuclides in the U.S. and throughout the world.

　　PRIME Lab facilities include the AMS system, based on a tandem electrostatic accelerator, and those laboratories needed for physical preparation of samples and the chemical separation and purification of long-lived radionuclides. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
