[Archport] Seminário AMS - ITN

[antonio monge soares <amsoares@itn.pt>]

Perspectivando-se a que, num futuro próximo, o Instituto Tecnológico e
Nuclear venha a dispor de uma unidade de datação pelo radiocarbono por
AMS, chama-se a atenção para a Conferência que irá ter lugar amanhã
naquele Instituto.
