Résumé
Conventional beta counting technique based radiocarbon dating facility at Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeosciences- Lucknow was established in 1974 (Rajagopalan,1978). In 2017-18, BSIP received an upgrade with installation of an Automated Graphitization Equipment (AGE) coupled with an Elemental Analyser, a Carbonate Handling System (CHS) along with an in-line stable isotope mass-spectrometer (IRMS). Using this combo, stable Carbon (C), Nitrogen (N) and Sulfur (S) isotopic measurements could be carried out in both organic and inorganic type samples followed by graphite preparation (~1 mg) for
