A first international 26Al interlaboratory comparison was initiated and evaluation of the results of the eight participating accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) laboratories on four synthetic samples shows no difference in the sense of simple statistical significance. However, certain interlaboratory bias is observed with more detailed statistical analyses. Some laboratories seem to underestimate the uncertainties of their measurements, and others may overestimate measurement reproducibility.
After finishing Part I of the first international 26Al interlaboratory comparison with accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) laboratories [S. Merchel, W. Bremser, Nucl. Instr. and Meth. B 223224 (2004) 393], the evaluation of Part II with radionuclide counting laboratories took place. The evaluation of the results of the seven participating laboratories on four meteorite samples shows a good overall agreement between laboratories, i.e. it does not reveal any statistically significant differences if results are compared sample-by-sample. However, certain interlaboratory bias is observed with a more detailed statistical analysis including some multivariate approaches.
