========================================================================= Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2005 19:06:43 -0700 Reply-To: Radiocarbon Mailing List Sender: Radiocarbon Mailing List From: "Prof. Jim Chisman" Subject: Oil painting dating??? I have an oil painting that I would like to have dated - it is at least 200 years old. I could sacrifice some of the canvas on the edge of the painting that wraps around the stretcher. How big of a sample would I need? How close could it be dated by different methods. Could the oil pigments be dated separate from the canvas? What would the cost be? If expensive, is there a cheaper way than radiocarbon dating?

This work will primarily be based on measurements of C-14, Be-10 and Al-26 at our ANTARES and STAR Accelerator Mass Spectrometry Facility in projects related to continental and mountain glacial formations, Antarctic ice cores, ocean and terrestrial sediments. A suite of chemistry laboratories for AMS sample preparation is also available. He or she will be a member of a multi-faceted ANSTO project called CcASH- Cosmogenic climate Archives in the Southern Hemisphere. This activity is supported through university collaborations and institutional agreements and is focussed on applications of cosmogenic radionuclides (such a Be-10, Al-26, Cl-36 and C-14) to investigate Southern Hemisphere climate variability recorded in a variety of natural archives. The successful applicant will be expected to drive their own scientific research program and participate in other aspects of the project. The position requires knowledge in the role of the above cosmogenic and stable isotopes (eg d18O, d13C) and their geochemistry to palaeo-climate studies, experience in relevant sample preparation techniques and familiarity with experimental methods in AMS measurements.
